Question
Hello, I am Carol. I have a problem with depression because of my boyfriend, and I no longer know what to do. His problem is very serious. I think he is an alcoholic. I am a university student. Well, everything was going fine until—I think—he became attached to me, because whenever I want to break up, he threatens to kill himself or hang himself, and I am speechless, because if that happened I would not want to be responsible for what happened to him. I just want us to be at peace as friends, but I can’t. What should I do? I have tried everything, and he comes to my school drunk. I am disappointed in him… I hope for a solution. I know I will trust you… Thank you… Bye.
Carol

Hello, Carol:
I am Barbara Kosen, and I am answering you as a woman: leave him. Do not complicate your life. You are young, and there are plenty of available men ready to love you unselfishly.
Best regards.
