im am 19, six months pregnant and going insane.

my boyfriend is mentally abusive, but i love him, he just went crazy. its like he isnt himself. i knew he was bipolar, but this isnt like that, i used to blame it on drugs but hes been sober for a few months, and hes gotten better but he has this other side to him that is obviously not because of drugs. i think hes evil. he would never hurt me physically, but he is treating my family and his family and me horribly. he is always angry and yelling and soooo impatient. my parents pretty much think im a **** up right now so they are putting me down as well, and i cant handle it. i dream of how to kill myself all the time. im afriad to leave my boyfriend because we have been together since forever, and i dont want to go through a pregnancy alone. i have laready decided i am giving it up for adoption, because i know my bf is just insane and cant be a father. i think my boyfriend might be schizophrenic…hes 23. he doesnt see people or anything, i dont know, but he starts talking weird sometimes and gets paranoid …most of this just started getting worse recently. he starts saying that he has the best car in the world (far from it, its just an 87 porsche 944 turbo) and no one is better than him at anything and that he has a half a million dollars stored up and that he graduated from college (not even close)- hes not in school. he said he got accepted into vet school??? on a scholarship?? he is crazy and sometimes its really scary. he also has an addiction to spending money. lots of it. he has put his parents in deep debt because his mother is an enabler and when he yells at her and gets mad she keeps giving him large sums of money. i have given him all my money as well. i know it sounds like drugs, and i wish that was it, but its not. hes crazy. he spends money on eating out 3 times a day and spending 40$ everytime he eats (appetizer, meal, and the rest in alcohol) he is an alcoholic too, but he doesnt need it everyday and can go a long time without it. he just likes maybe 4 beers a day. spread out. and sometimes more but i dont know, he makes it seem so normal. he doesnt get drunk. im very depressed and i hate this baby inside me. im going crazy as well. im bipolar too…but i guess not as extreme. i have been through a lot of therapy and have calmed down, he on the other hand has been through no therapy or medication. maybe this is just extreme bipolar?? im super super depressed though…and im not on medication right now (bc being pregnant im not allowed to take my meds) i guess what i want to know is should i leave him? i love him soooooo much and i just want to help him, but hes dragging me down…but hes also my only friend, and i dont want to be alone. hes not always mean either…hes very loving at times, and passionate, and cute, and silly with me. but when hes mean hes soooo mean. anyway im rambling…i just dont know what to do so i typed help me into google and this came up. im lost. im broken. suicidal maybe…i dont know. i think i might get more sad if i left him though because i love him so much and if i left him he would fall apart, we both have no friends because we are ex drug users, i am over a year drug free, and him just like 4 months…and we said goodbye to every friend we ever had, and i think he would go back to that life if i left.

i wish i could give you a answer that would make everything better for you but there really isnt one other than what you already know in your heart and that is that your boyfriend is unstable and you should leave him for your own sake. My sister is a recovering alcoholic and it is very difficult to deal with watching someone you love damage themselves like this. i also have a friend who is schizophrenic, this was triggered by years of smoking weed. my friend is a nice guy and would not intentionally hurt anyone but he attacked his mum and ex girlfriend because he thought they were talking in strange voices at him, he was taken to a mental health unit for 5 months and has to take meds for the rest of his life and never EVER smoke weed again. Have you considered going to your parents and telling them how you feel about this? they may ask you to come home if they realised what a serious situation you are in? it may give you time to think about what you want from your life and what you really want for your child. I am biased as I have 2 children and I wish I could explain in words the amazing joy and light they bring to my life. being a mother is the hardest job in the word, it is long hours and no pay but it is the most satisfying job at the same time, my heart bursts with happiness just watching them sleep knowing they are safe but i understand it is not for everyone and am not judging any decision you may make i would just suggest time away from your bf to consider all your options.
please dont think that if your bf goes back to drugs that it is your fault, he is an adult and responsible for his own actions. i have lost many friends to drugs and when i was your age i took an overdose while drunk, i dont really remember doing it but i do remember waking up to my mum and sister crying next to the hospital bed and that image gives me guilt everytime i think about it and always will. I was upset after splitting up with someone who was my world, it took time after that to realise he was dragging me down and if i had stayed with him i would be on the streets, drunk or dead. That morning waking up to the people that really loved me was a turning point for me, i realised that there were better things ahead for me and that i had hope.
i wish the same for you, i wish for you to have the strength to make difficult decisions, the courage to ask for help when you need it, and love in your heart to give you light in the darkest times.

It is a decision that you can only make, but it is not the “end of the World” because you are pregnant. There is a beautiful human being that you are carrying around and you must do what is best for the child. Abusive people are not good for children, at all, as you know. But, you must decide. If he is aware of his problem and seeks help, there is a chance it will work. But, having said that, if he does not know that he has a problem, would not jump into that situation. It is hard enough to take care of the child, much less, deal with a person that is abusive.

I think that you need to think of yourself and your child before you say you are not going to leave him. If he can’t handle being a father you need to leave him. You don’t have to give the baby up. I mean if that is really what you want to do then by all means do it but if you don’t you just are because of your bf leave him and keep the baby. You know you are never alone you have all of us here on help.com and you also have God. Keep your hopes high and try to think of you first!

You are better off without him. Take solace in God, your family, and your REAL friends and most of all, give your child a future. Your feelings are normal. Hey, I’m 32 and love and relationships still bring out all the emotions in someone my age, but as young as you are, you have PLENTY of time.

Live, laugh, and love with your family as I promise you, THEY will be the ones to stand beside you during this time of trial. God bless you and keep you and your child. I truly pray you will be comforted.

I think that you should cherish the ability to give life and keep the baby so that you will be able to have friends again because this baby will grow up to love you more than anything else has loved you. also please dont take your own life because you will hurt everyone around you who has loved you. People like me who explore religion learn to love everything and having someone beautiful like you would be a terrible thing to lose. I’m sure that when you see your baby that you will see that this life has beautiful things that are worth living for and you will see life in a more optimistic view. Please don’t kill yourself because the world needs people who can persevere.

That sounds like me b4 my daughter was born, except all the lying about stupid **** like college, money, and vet school. My girl at the time gave me an ultimatum, sober up or ur not going to be a part of our lives. A few rehabs later, multiple sponsors, and through working the 12-steps of AA, I have had a profound spiritual experience…and as a result a complete personality change. I’m a great father today, and have the most beautiful 2yr. old girl in the world. None of this would have been possible without me admitting I had a problem and needed help. If i can offer u any help, I would be more than willing. I hope everything works out for the best for u. My girl was thinking of giving up our child for adoption until I got sober, I can’t imagine life without her. She is the best thing that ever happened to me. I love her so much!!! Again, good luck and let me know if i can help. Thanks. -Anonymous
