Me being so worried was more a result of me caring about him so much and being overly obsessed with him, his life and how he is doing. He is luckily the sweetest, most understanding person I know and has helped me to manage my worries and anxiety while feeling so comfortable in bringing up either of our issues. I feel secure in his safety while still knowing that i can recognise when something is really wrong. I still worry about him loads but I'm wokring on not feeling so anxious, especially when I know for a fact nothing is wrong.

It's great to hear that you spoke to him and that you were able to understand his point of view. It can be hard to watch your loved ones go through certain issues and I hope he is able to work through them.
