For the past week o/h has driven me to despair. Every morning when he realises I am going to work starts having a tantrum and this week decided it would be a good idea to leave the house in his pyjamas. I have had to beg him to come back in calm him down then get ready for work and go only for him to ring every 20 minutes or so the whole morning. Have not been able to concentrate at work and when your colleagues keep asking whats wrong well obviously the water works start (cannot deal with sympathy at all). This carried on for 3 mornings on the trot Saturday was the final straw he ran out no slippers rain pouring and in his pyjamas. Managed to get him back in after I told him I would not go to work, calmed the situation and he was a different person. Rang work and have been off now 4 days but hope to go back on Wednesday. Doctor had prescribed mirtazapine depression tablets a month ago but I had not given them to him but on Saturday night thought enough is enough and have started him on the course 7.5g for 2 weeks then 15g after. Don't know if this a good idea, he had been moody prior to last week and things have not changed yet (expecting some kind of miracle). Have I done the right thing? Don't know what I am going to do if he starts kicking off again on Wenesday, I only work 10 to 2, 4 hours a day 5 days. However he just doesn't want me to go and won't have anyone sitting with him
