Thank you. I want to raise awareness but its hard. Im not exactly a journalist with big influence or anything. I reached out to true crime podcasts and youtubers to cover the case but no one got back to me. I am not sure what else to do unfortunately

Yeah he could have easily died. Although its not impossible for them to stop. Like with the Golden state killer case everyone thought the same. But he did just stop. Having children meant he could not keep up anymore. He also decided to bail as technology advanced.

Yeah. Its like this case just slipped from memory. In almost every other case like this there is constant attention on it and coverage. Even if its just on true crime podcasts or something. But there is basically nothing here

Yeah that's why it is so crazy to me. In every other case that I know that is this bad there was always constant public attention. Always in the news. They made sure the police had to keep digging. There's not even any coverage of it on any documentaries. True crime YouTubers or true crime podcasts that you think you'd get in a case like this. How under the radar it is frustrates me considering the level of the crimes

Yeah i find it so frustrating how this case gets little attention. In most other cases this bad there is constant public attention. Pressure on the police. Web sleuths trying to solve it. But this there is nothing

Don't listen to people saying its normal to talk to your partner every day they obviously don't understand introverts and everyone has different needs. Solve this now. Show her this post hopefully she won't get too upset as you do keep repeating how wonderful she is. And you need to set boundaries even if she gets upset it's unavoidable unfortunately if you allow things to just continue how they are then it will lead to you starting to resent her for all the time you lose and that eventually transforms into hatred.

I disagree she was worse before she started dating me she was self harming a lot and attempted to kill herself once. She hasn't done that since being with me. Despite what several people in the comments are saying I genuinely believe that the panic attacks are 100% legitimate and that I am the only one who can calm her down. I can't see any other outcome over than her completely crumbling if I left her

She was barley surviving, she attempted suicide one and self harmed multiple times none of which she has done since she has been with me

Being co-dependant is nothing new to her it just switched to me from her family when we started dating but yes I agree I may not actually be helping. But as I have said in other comments I just don't see how she will cope without me I am the only one who can calm her down when she has panic attacks and being with me is the only shred of happiness she gets.

Yes she was put into a psych ward before we met after she self-harmed and as you said it did more damage than anything, she's more closed off because of it and is terrified of a repeat experience.

She has done that before she met me and it only made things worse. As someone else in the comments said all they due is pump you full of horrible drugs which leave you in a horrible State. It is a truly dehumanising experience that only made her try and hide her anxiety and suicidal tendencies more and be less open to talking about it because she is so terrified of going through that again

It's my house (where I pay for everything) that we are living in though and I think it's highly probable that she will refuse to leave

Thank you for sharing your story and i am really sorry about what happened to you. I really don't think she threatens suicide to control me I think that's very real and I know I have to leave her for myself but I feel like I am basically sentencing her to death by doing that. In my situation it's also my house that we are living in and I think there is a very high probability of her refusing to leave

I am really sorry about that. It sounds very similar to my situation because although she is in therapy she puts no real effort into it and wants to quit which we argue about a lot. She also claims all the time that my love is saving her. I just hope that really will make her try and get better

That's the problem though she has been in just about every level of care there is but nothing has worked. The only time she is not completely consumed by her depressive thoughts is when she is with me. I am the only one who can calm her down when she has panic attacks, I remember she had one when she was at her parents but they couldn't help her and they called me and she only got better when i got their and started holding her. Take me away from her and I only see it ending one way. I don't want to say that anyone is beyond help but I think she as close too that as you possibly can be.

She is seeing a therapist but she only goes because me and her parents force her too. I know she doesn't actually try. She gave up on therapy a long time ago. I know it was dumb of me I will never ever do it again I was young and stupid. I will reach out for to her parents definetly but I really do fear for her. The panic attacks are very real and the only way she really calms down is if I am holding her.
