I am in a relationship with a man who has epilepsy. We have been together for six years. The problem being, when he does not take his medication he becomes violent and hurts me. When he is taking his medication he is sweet and adorable. We have a 4 year old daughter together, and she loves her daddy.
I am not in love with him anymore. Actually, I am terrified of him. I feel like I am always one pill away from getting hurt again. But I feel guilty for wanting to leave , as its an illness that causes him to be violent.
I have asked him to take some anger management classes and do couples counseling. He refuses. His doctor has requested he get blood tests monthly to check his medication levels to make sure he is safe, he refuses. Always has an excuse type.
So I gave him until Feb to comply with his doctor, and get into counseling.
But, I kinda want to leave now. Am I aweful, or should I walk?
