Joe De Livera, can you help?

Joe, I left a post earlier and I'm new, so I didn't realize the request for you would not show up in the title, so i'm reposting with your name. I've actually asked for youin two cases and I'm sorry for the length, but i was trying to cover everything, so that you would have a full understanding of the whole situation. Thank you

To Joe De Livera or whomever can help. Joe, I've been using the arnica for my cystic acne, you are a godsend to me.

My boyfriend has many health issues. He's impossible to live with alot of the time.
He has hepatitis c and has for many years. He is an alcoholic, although he no longer drinks. We believe he is also manic depressive. He also suffers from chronic pain, and now being on pain medications for many years (currently methadone) he also has fibro myalgia. I don't care for pharmaceuticals and never believed he should take these things, but being a drug addict and alcoholic, he has always prefered these things. I believe he is now sorry for this life long choice.

He is 45 and has always been a very hard worker/laborer. He works until he can't any more, pushes himself to the limit. He's a roofer and all aroung construction worker and has been exposed to many things over the years. Pitch, asbestos, lyme, insulation, fumes and air particles. He has had heat stroke on more than one occassion. He does not take very good care of himself, but is always asking me for help. I have had him on vitamin regimens in the past that seem to have somewhat helped. He is depressed and angry at the world. I have been unhappy with him for many years, but I'm compassionate and just put up with him because I know he is sick. Although he makes my life and everyone's around him miserable, I still care for his well being.

He is irritable and fly's off the handle easily, often for nothing at all. If I try to talk to him he flips out and thinks I'm blaming all things in life on him. He won't discuss any thing. He hates my friends, he hates noise, he constantly critisizes everybody and everything. He thinks everyone hates him and he hates them back. Which, many people don't care for his attitude and constant complaining about everything. His coworkers privately tell me many things about his outbursts.

Lately he's been telling me that he thinks he's going to die soon. He had been mostly sober for quite a few years and then started drinking again. I could not live with that behavior and I have two sons. He's violent and mean when he drinks and also when he doesn't drink, it's just not as extreme. I made him move out and he just sat in a bar, drinking himself to death and was homeless. Although my life was happy and peaceful with him gone,I finally went and brought him home, under the condition that he stop drinking. He's been back almost a year, but I'm miserable with him here. He is sober though.

Do you think that there is anything that can help him? He loses his temper and has no patience for our young son who I'm sure has at least adhd/ocd. My older son does also. His hostility and despair is hurting both of my sons and I don't know what to do anymore. At this point, he is tired and weak and has a very hard time getting out of bed every day, but he still get's up and goes to work. He worries about everything, especially bills, which i deal with. He wants to spend time with my 4 year old, but after 10 minutes, he has had it. Can anyone help?
