How can I help my miserable partner?

My boyfriend is very unhappy. He's very jealous, insecure, his self esteem is non existent, jobless and paranoid. He's been putting crap in his head and as a result he takes it out on me. He drinks and smoke, he gets very verbally abusive once he's drunk.

How long has he been without a job, has he been looking for work?

@MrAverage1965 a few months so far, no he hasn't been looking and I've already mentioned he needs to get one soon, just got sick of repeating myself

@MzAnonymouz That's not good I know it can be a hit to your confidence when you loose a job but that's no excuse.
They say in the modern job market it will happen several times in a person's life it's something we all need to deal with.
