My husband is suicidal and I don't know what to do.  Most of the time I avoid confrontation with him because if he gets too upset he says he is going to kill himself.  Last night we got into a fight and he backed me up against the wall and was screaming at me.  I was afraid he was going to hurt me.  I honestly wanted to leave him but I stay with him because I don't want him to hurt himself.  I do love him very much and I want our marriage to work but I don't think it's fair to me or my son that we have to put up with this.  It is getting to the point that I can't share with him how I am feeling because I am too afraid of what he will do.  He already takes medication for depression and bipolar disorder.  This morning he thought everything was okay and I told him that he scared me last night and that I want him to get help.  Well, he threatened to kill himself again this morning.  He even got a gun out but I talked him out of it.  I don't know what to do.  My son is only 5 months old and I don't want him growing up in this kind of environment.  I need some help.  Please, can someone give me some advice?  What should I do?

Hi, Tammy! I am very sorry to hear about your husband. In spite of the fact that he is under treatment, it does not seem that the treatment is working. You

Hi and welcome to the board--although I wish you weren't having to deal with such major and dangerous stressors in your life right now!
