Something’s not right

Need input.. TW:SI

He often threatens me with it when I don't comply and always brings it up if I try to talk to him about his behaviour towards me.

 

I know he has tried in the past, before he met me or he wouldn't be on the experimental drug program they have him on. I doubt it's working because he doesn't take it as prescribed.

 

However, my question is this. My understanding is that while is is talking about it and sharing his outrageous ideas for how to achieve it I don't need to be as worried as I should be if he suddenly stops talking about is and seems calm and resolved.

 

Is that true or should I continue to worry when he is using the threat as my punishment?

Hey there @SJT63 I am sorry to hear about what you're experiencing with your loved one here this sounds like a very challenging situation. Am I right that your loved one threatens to harm themselves if you don't comply with them? This is a common issue sometimes and whilst it sounds like you're loved one is struggling, it can be a very unkind thing to do ongoing. In addition to our forums, I would really encourage you to book a confidential call with one of our counsellors at the SANE Help Centre Heart They can provide tailored strategies and insight on how to manage this as well as our forum community.

@nashy  I have sent them an email so we might try and arrange a time to talk, thanks.
