Thank you for your quick response!

No, he's not in therapy. He would like to be, but because he's a government contractor, he's unable to take much time off work. I'd mentioned it the other day, but he said that right now, having some place to live is more important than how he feels. I tried to relate saying that I hate taking time off work for those kinds of things. Clearly the wrong thing to say - he got annoyed and said that its not that he doesn't want to, it's that he can't.

He's had some financial troubles recently, not to mention car issues, etc, so I'm sure he's stressed about it all. I should have seen it coming - about 1.5 wks ago, he called off work bc he said he needed to relax and take some time off. But, because he doesn't have any PTO right now, he had to make it up later in the week.

I wish I could be there for him. Take him to therapy myself. But, he's got to be the one to do that. And, I'm afraid he won't until it gets unbearable for him. It's odd though - how he seemed so calm and happy. And, somehow he's a totally different person. The meds were really helping and they've seemed to poop out...
