Tabby Cat.... You have come to the right place to talk about suicide...many of us here have attempted it, and consider it an option but by leaning on each other and sharing our pain, we have learned that it isn't the solution. I'm glad your husband is safe in the hospital.

There are several good books out there that offer help and understanding..try "Suicide, The Forever Decision" by Paul Quinsett. It's an excellent, paperback for those considering suicide and those who love them.

We have an active bi polar forum here that your husband might want to consider joining when he is back home...I assume he will be going to therapy and hope he will be more reasonable about taking meds.

I'm so sorry you are having to deal with this on top of your own depression. Please know that you aren't alone...come talk to us and let us know of his progress.
