My boyfriend is born Intersex by birth (male and female both) He has the genitals of a Intersex person. (He's not transgender) I'm a normal female and I'm his girlfriend. The problem is that he's struggling with low self esteem. He hates his life because he's a Intersex person. He also suffers from depression and anxiety because of this. He tried committing suicide many years ago and I suspect that he still must be feeling suicidal. I always do my best to keep him happy but nothing works. Please tell me what to do? How should I help him out? I hope he doesn't commit suicide.

dont think too much about this problem. if physically handicapped person has hope to live for long time in the society. like that you feel take an example of mentally retarded and physically handicapped persons. suicide is a permanent solution for temporary problem. so dont try that aspect. hope to enjoy all the time and spend with him for time in a day. go to out side environment to enjoy the life. ok best of luck.
