What Should You Do for Someone Who Tries Suicide Alone?

Question by HelpOneAnother: What should you do for someone who tries suicide alone?
I asked earlier about my husband. Now he came over and told me he took a lot of pills 4 nights ago to commit suicide, but just got sick. I just feel empty, but didn’t ask him to stay. I told him if he went to rehab I would go to counseling with him afterward, but promise nothing else. Help!

He wants your attention and by threatening, he knows that you’ll be symphatic. In Texas you can have a mental illness warrent issued if he is in danger of hurting himself. They will lock in up for a few days in the mental ward and find out what’s really going on.

I think if someone is a threat to themselves you can hospitalize them against their will. Can you call his dr to ask for assistance?

Also, he is telling you for a reason. He wants help!
