Schizophrenia
So a year ago my boyfriend told me that he’s a schizophrenic. He found out over the 2 years we weren’t together and I️ promised to not tell anyone or to just up and leave because of it. It’s been a struggle for me and him both. I️ don’t know how to control him when he turns into a whole different person and I️ know he don’t be meaning to say or do anything to hurt me but his illness gets to him. We continue to have big arguments because he thinks I’m cheating or talking to somebody else because he has a “gut feeling” which I️ felt was just a crazy and stupid reason to assume that I️ am. He has his episodes and sometimes they last for days. It’s been hard for the both of us and I️ just wished that I️ knew how to control that head of his cause he keeps letting whoever or whatever tell him things otherwise. I️ can show him and prove to him that I’m not doing anything but it doesn’t matter, he has trust issues with me from when we were just kids, around 14 and were now 19. I️ don’t want to leave him because I️ love him and wants to be there for him because I️ know it’s hard for him. It just sucks when he sometimes he would push me real hard or something or pull my hair, and it’s really not who he is. Like he is a whole different person when he is upset or thinking. He’s feeling bad and upset because he blackout and sometimes don’t remember what happened. He’s such a loving person but that head of his is blocking that loving person out. And he won’t get any help, he got medication while he was younger and don’t like it at all. He says it makes you tired and not the same. I️ love him but sometimes I️ feel like I️ can’t handle it. If anyone know how I️ can help him in anyway it would be really helpful. He wants me to help but I️ have no idea how.
UPDATE::::
He said the medication doesn’t help and he would rather go with a different option because they did nothing for him. And no need for the negativity, he is not the same person and I️ don’t think people are understanding that. The medication doesn’t help plus it makes him less of who he is. It’s not like he doesn’t want to find a solution he JUST DOESN’T WANT THE MEDICATION.
UPDATE!!!!!
Thanks for the comments, I️ will try to talk to him about talking to someone but he is very stubborn
