My boyfriend has been diagnosed lunatic. He’s the shouting kind, always screaming at me over the smallest thing, but then he would be the cutest little bean with me, cuddling me and asking me what’s wrong whenever I’m feeling angry/sad and whatnot.

Problem is, his screaming ways have become unbearably erratic. He’d scream at me literally over nothing, telling me I « always do everything wrong », and such. He says he’s screaming at me because he wants to make me change (I’m very anxiety-prone and screaming/arguments don’t make things any better for me) and he won’t stop until I ‘behave.’

I don’t know what to do. He also has trust issues because of past relationships and has suffered depression some time in the past.

Over the phone last time when we were discussing the issue, he told me that he’d never choose a relationship over money. And I just don’t understand why. Also I’ve noticed he’s become more and more selfish and profiting off me.

When I was running errands he forcefully put his items in the thing and once we headed home he didn’t want to share these same items (like 3 boxes of cereal) that I BOUGHT in order to please him.

I’ve talked to him several times about the way he’s treating me but he doesn’t seem to make an effort to tame himself. Is it because he’s lunatic? Should I stay and try to make things work? I really love this guy, and I know he loves me too... but this is really draining me and he knows it.
