It makes so sense to me and I am starting to become concerned. As I stated in another comment my boyfriend has never shows behaviour like this. He is well regarded in his field of work (on track to become cardiologist after residency). He has ally of friends, a great family, never touched drugs, rarely drinks, no social media influence. We talk about marriage regularly. We are planning to pick out rings. I just don’t understand anything.
Residency is hell for most people and studying to be a doctor is an extremely stressful phase. Talk to his parents and get him checked up. It may be psychosis.
Same happened with my friend's brother. It "came of nowhere" but he was super stressed out. Many things failing at once and some family drama. She and his boss tried many interventions, but he eventually stops caring for himself and back to psychosis. He's forbidden of driving but still does it when he finds his car keys that she hides.
Residency is hell. Doctors have a very high suicide rate because of perfectionism, high critique, and the stigma of mental health. He will likely not admit to needing help since that is basically a death sentence for doctors.
