I'm sorry to hear this. I have no words but know I am thinking of you. I hope he can access and engage with support to help him get better.

Thank you for your reply fottosoftfosm 🤗 , yeah I’m hoping tomorrow they can get him seen more regular or maybe other help that can be assessed , thank you for your message x

Sorry to read this OP. Hope you both get some help and support soon.

So sorry OP, thinking of you

Thank you for kind messages bring biscuits & user764329056 x

If he's Army, you might be able to get help from Forces charities. Tho I'm not sure how that works with still being serving.

Thinking someone like Combat Stress but that might be for the future, as obv he needs acute care just now.

Hope he gets the help he needs. Take care of yourself, too.

Yeah he’s been in touch with combat stress I have sent them over an email also on their 24 hour line thank you so much for your message 🤗🤗 waddsup12 x

Sending you a hug, OP. I know how stressful this is - my DD has hanged herself twice (severe depression), and I know the awful stress and sick worry you must live with, dreading another attempt.
I hope your DH’s psychiatrist can quickly find the right antidepressant for him, and also access effective treatment for post traumatic stress. There are good treatments out there, so there is reason to be cautiously hopeful.
Please don’t get ground down with worry - get some support yourself, and someone to offload your stress to. Relaxation therapy might help you (it did me).
There are always many sympathetic ears on MN, and I hope you get lots of support here.
I will put you and DH in my prayers - may you both have a peaceful Christmas and a much happier new year, and may he find healing. God bless, OP.

I e found the organisation Mind really helpful for support

Hi babdoc thank you for your message , I’m sorry to hear about ur daughter how awful and the stress and hurt you must also have gone through and still are , it’s horrible what these awful diseases to and take hold of the people that we love ,we are at his camp just now seeing doctor so hoping medication will be adjusted or whatever they think is best at the moment we then have welfare officer later it’s very different in the army so me myself still trying to get used to it as sometimes I don’t agree with how their doing things but that’s just my opinion I hope they give him some more time as he was right back in to work last time which was to soon in my opinion, iv joined a few forums and organisations so hoping that can help at moment thank you so much I find praying and chapel myself a great comfort at times like these just what helps with me just a comfort I guess .
