Is there an X-Files episode where Mulder wants to commit suicide?

Question

just curious

:-)

Answer 1

In Pusher, he's not suicidal - but the killer makes him play Russian Roulette, and he almost kills himself and Scully.

He's somewhat suicidal in Demons - he has ketamine treatments to try to recover his memories of his sister's abduction.

In the three-parter Gethsemane, Redux and Redux II he is about to kill himself when it turns out that everything he believed about extra-terrestrials turned out to be a lie.

Answer 2

One Christmas Eve, Mulder and Scully investigate a haunted mansion. There, under control of two ghosts of people who committed murder/suicide on a Christmas Eve long ago,(played by Lily Tomlin and Ed Asner)they are deceived into believing they had shot each other and, in their remorse, wanted to kill themselves; acting out what had happened to the first couple.  

Answer 3

There is more than one.  The man is pretty unstable.  

Someone else mentioned the Ghosts Who Stole Christmas in season six.  There are also some times much earlier in the series where he is obviously depressed and I know there is at least one time he contimplates suicide.  I think it's while Scully is either missing or dying.  I am getting really frustrated because I can't think of the episode.

I hope someone else can be more help.  But yes, he definitely thinks about suicide.
