This thread title feels sad now
I can't remember which exact thread but I was reading one last night and yes in 2023 posters were literally predicting this, so so sad they were right felt a bit eerieI expected this at some point but just not so soon which I think is why I’m shocked. I’m sure it was discussed on one of these threads once that we could see it ending this way but I can’t find where. I remember at the time Matthew Perry passed that I could see Liam’s fate being the same.
Sorry but I find these kind of takes so poor, responsibility for someone’s mental health should never be placed at the partners doorstep.. And then he was clearly drinking again…It’s shocking that his current gf would leave him alone in Argentina in that situation… but maybe they had argument and she had enough or something.
Yes, that is very true. On the other hand, I think I would try to help if I cared about the person. But again, some people are beyond help despite everyone’s attemptsSorry but I find these kind of takes so poor, responsibility for someone’s mental health should never be placed at the partners doorstep.
He was clearly off the rails, why should she put herself in danger to look after him?
There’s also plenty of other reasons why a partner might travel back before hand. For all we know they split / she had a commitment back home to go to / he asked her… etc.Sorry but I find these kind of takes so poor, responsibility for someone’s mental health should never be placed at the partners doorstep.

I’m sure she probably did try to help many times over the course of their relationship but she’s one person and not qualified in mental health care. She was never going to be able to ‘fix’ or help years and years of mental suffering that was clearly very extreme.Yes, that is very true.

TBF, no one knows what she has done to help, both on this trip and otherwise.Yes, that is very true. On the other hand, I think I would try to help if I cared about the person. But again, some people are beyond help despite everyone’s attempts
Very true. We don’t know what went on behind close doors. It’s just heartbreaking for everyoneTBF, no one knows what she has done to help, both on this trip and otherwise.
THIS. I was never really a 1D fan but all morning I have just been thinking about Cheryl and Bear. Maybe because I have a kid the same age.I feel so sorry for his little boy. I know he didn’t seem to see him very much, so his day to day life probably won’t change much but it’s still a huge life altering thing to go through at that age. I also think 7 is tough because they’re still so young, yet they understand a lot so it’s hard to protect them. It’s sad that he didn’t get the chance to better himself and be there for his child more as he grows up.
You honestly cannot force someone into rehab/therapy or the likes.Yes, that is very true. On the other hand, I think I would try to help if I cared about the person. But again, some people are beyond help despite everyone’s attempts
100% this. My dad has been going into rehab for most of life for alcohol addiction and 9/10 he falls off the wagon again, because as much as he does want the help there and then, it doesn't last. It happens time and time again. It's sad. You can have all the money in the world, all the resources there to help you but ultimately it is down to the person that is needing the help to actually want it because otherwise the cycle continues.You honestly cannot force someone into rehab/therapy or the likes.
you can reach an all time low with them and they will say yes they will get help, you can drive them to the door, get them in and talk with the therapist etc etc and then at the point where they say they don’t have a problem is when it all falls down.
Rehab and therapy only work if the addict is ready for help and freely admits to being out of control. You can shout and scream that they need help and they are ruining their life and yours and killing you. But until they actually ask for help it won’t come.
so then you leave and wait for the next time…
