I am not a doctor. I speak only from personal experience. I am married to a man (5 years of dating and 20 years of married) who behaved exactly like that and still can. i have attended the family to family meetings presented by nami. I have also done therapy to help me deal with this behavior. He basically has rejected outside help. He has a history of this behavior in his teen years when he lived with his parents. It was always about a girl breaking up with him. His parents enabled the behavior .It is not healthy to allow yourself to be taken as an emotional hostage. It is not healthy to allow yourself to be manipulate thru false guilt. This relationship has emotionally drained me. I have stayed strong for our children and they both are doing well emotionally, physically and mentally. They both excel in education. and do not do drugs or drink. They are 20yrs and 16 yrs old. I'm grateful for this but it has required alot of work. I am leaving this marriage at some point in the near future.I love my husband but i cannot deal with this anymore. If i fully understood this before we got married, I would not of made the decision to marry him. Threating suicide because a relationship has ended is NOT NORMAL! I suggest you keep walking and cut your loses early. Adults are responsible for the decisions make.
