you think that your husband has lost it and is suicidle?
I've been trying to break things off with him for quite some time... and am supposedly legally seperated (I'm told i can use my rent agreement and some other things for that)... and last week we had it out and I told him i was done and too busy with school to deal with his bs...
I haven't talked to him in a week... and he has no buddies other than me on aim.... and he keeps leaving these depressing messages for me about suicide and how life has no meaning and that he hopes he drinks himself to his death, etc.
and I know he is trying to make me feel bad... but I also don't trust his mental stability. He is a marine, so I could report him to his command... but then he might go even crazier and he would absolutely hate me.
any suggestions?
oh, and happy turkey day!!

thats what you get for marrying a marine.

Tell him to watch Leaving Las Vegas, and do likewise.

11/23/2005 10:30:47 PM

tell him to make it happen!

11/23/2005 10:34:49 PM

LISTEN UP

call his command, ask to speak to the chaplain. ANYTHING you say to a military chaplain is priveliged information. he will not (BY LAW) tell ANYONE. he will then intervene...a chaplain is not a suicide counselor, but he will serve as a first responder of sorts, then try to get your husband proper help.

DO IT RIGHT NOW. don't wait until tomorrow--stop what you are doing and pick up the phone.

if you or someone can go stay with him until the chaplain can get there, do that.

if you aren't going to do this, PM me with whatever info you can (your husband's name, phone #, address, phone number for his command/supervisor, phone # for his chaplain, whatever you know.)

Marines are statistically the WORST in the military every single year when it comes to suicide rates, and this being Thanksgiving weekend is a statistical risk factor, too.

oh cmon they go on the ground when theres a war too, even if their plan of attack is SLIGHTLY different from the army

11/23/2005 11:00:53 PM

blar... thanks... I'm probably going to pm theDuke866 with his info.
I'm hoping that he is jsut doing this for attention... but he has tried to jump out of my car while i was driving 55mph before because he didn't want to hear whatever I was saying concerning our failed relationship. so...
and he has had psychiatric help before, which is the reason he was an Lcpl for 6 years.... if his command finds out about this he will loose any military career that he has left.
but... I'll try to find the information.
he needs to do something.... andI hate worrying about him (although I'm still pretty convinced he is just doing this to get under my skin.... I just don't want to regret thinking that for the rest of my life if I'm wrong)

exactly. his life is not worth rolling the dice on, either for his sake or yours.

i've heard of a Navy pilot who attempted suicide who actually received treatment and managed to get back on flight status (not immediately...but eventually).

i'm telling you, his command will want to know. they will want to fix him, not screw him.

if you have no contact # of any kind for his command, PM me with what command he's in (and any other info you have), and i'll try to track down the appropriate people. it's a small Marine Corps, and I might know someone who knows someone.
