sounds a bit like stress but if you are that worried about it all you would have to talk to him about it and ask him to go see a doctor

Yeah it sounds like stress -- school can get that way plus lack of sleep makes it all worse. Just be a good gf and stay by his side -- don't keep asking what is wrong or anything even if you really want to know -- because that can be bothersome somethimes but maybe say "hon I'm worried about these things, so if there is anything I can do just let me know."

It sounds like he's suffering from depression. He's tired because he's not sleeping well, and the loss of appetite isn't making it any better. These are both signs of clinical depression, and no matter what you do, you can't fix it.
Men are much less likely to seek help for depression but are much more likely to commit suicide than women when they are depressed. Try to get him to see a doctor, at least his GP, and go with him. Use the argument that he, as a pharmacy student, should know that help is available, and insist that he get it. Good luck to both of you.

It sounds like he should talk to his doctor. It could be stress, depression, or simply insomnia. There are non-habit forming pills that treat insomnia so maybe he could look into that. If he's in college then he definitely needs to get a good night's sleep to function properly.

what's it which you're doing whilst he falls asleep? He would not nod off if he grow to have an interest in what grow to be happening. do no longer in effortless terms take a seat around on the settee, because of the fact he will certainly be bored and nod off. If he's no longer bored, he won't nod off.

IT COULD BE ATTRIBUTED TO THE TYPE OF WORK HE DOES.
