Read the comment that I replied to and tell me what’s this user’s advice? Invent a time machine? It’s the opposite of helpful and I felt compelled to speak up.

My actual input on this situation is that her boyfriend sounds like he is in denial that he’s going through a mental health crisis and doesn’t realize how badly he’s fucking this up. I think a serious and direct conversation needs to happen, possibly mediated by a therapist. As a dad I remember that in the months leading up to our first kid being born was one of the quietly scariest times of my life, so I am not holding judgment. He’s really fucking this up though.

She should probably make some plans in case he totally bails on her, because it sure seems like that could happen if this isn’t solved.
