My wife is very depressed and has told me she tried to commit suicide. I got home one day and she was in the fetal position crying on the kitchen floor. I told her mother and she visited for several weeks. She still talks of hopelessness. I have 4 children 5 to 19. I can not ask our church for help since she feels she is being punished by them for not attending the building our neighborhood is assigned to. she wants to attend where she is more comfortable. The leader of the church said our family can only serve in the church our neighborhood is assigned to. She feels betrade by god which is what her life is about. We have been married 20 years and there have been many things that set her off and get her depressed. I am afraid to get her labeled. But I will hate myself if I do not get her help. Please give me advise.

  1. You need to forget what people may think of you and get her help.

    Whats more important? Your reputation or her life?

    Get her to see a psychiatrist ASAP.


  2. Labels don't matter unless you let them. I'm 47 and have lived with depression for 29 years. Meds are important. For me, every time I felt better I'd stop, which would lead to spiralling downward again. I take my meds every day.

    My God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Father of Jesus, does not betray his children, though testing us is not out of the question. Reference the book of Job.

    Tell her she's got people praying for her that she doesn't even know.

  3. God does not want the death of the sinner but to become and be saved

    God loves the post that gave him life and believe in his own image and likeness, died by it on the cross for the remission of their sins and now wants to commit the greatest of sins

    the murder of himself for this sin because there can be no repentance and penance

    know that when this life pass her soul will be put on trial and there will be given their eternal reward: heaven, purgatory or h**l

    if the choice of love for God not you think

    this is the last and most effective

    brother but it is painful for everybody's sake

    read and know what to do next

    The second solution is to talk of h**l!

    Sister Faustina's Vision of h**l

    "I, Sister Faustina Kowalska, by the order of God, have visited the Abysses of h**l so that I might tell souls about it and testify to its existence...the devils were full of hatred for me, but they had to obey me at the command of God, What I have written is but a pale shadow of the things I saw. But I noticed one thing: That most of the souls there are those who disbelieved that there is a h**l." (Diary 741)

    The Apostle of Divine Mercy

    St. Maria Faustina Kowalska

    of the

    Congregation of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy

    "Today, I was led by an angel to the Chasms of h**l. It is a place of great torture; how awesomely large and extensive it is! The kinds of tortures I saw:

    The First Torture that constitutes h**l is:

    The loss of God.

    The Second is:

    Perpetual remorse of conscience.

    The Third is

    That one's condition will never change.

    The Fourth is:

    The fire that will penetrate the soul without destroying it. A terrible suffering since it is a purely spiritual fire, lit by God's anger.

    The Fifth Torture is:

    Continual darkness and a terrible suffocating smell, and despite the darkness, the devils and the souls of the damned see each other and all the evil, both of others and their own.

    The Sixth Torture is:

    The constant company of Satan.

    The Seventh Torture is:

    Horrible despair, hatred of God, vile words, curses and blasphemies.

    These are the Tortures suffered by all the damned together, but that is not the end of the sufferings.

    Indescribable Sufferings

    There are special Tortures destined for particular souls. These are the torments of the senses. Each soul undergoes terrible and indescribable sufferings related to the manner in which it has sinned.

    I would have died

    There are caverns and pits of torture where one form of agony differs from another. I would have died at the very sight of these tortures if the omnipotence of God had not supported me.

    No One Can Say There is No h**l

    Let the sinner know that he will be tortured throughout all eternity, in those senses which he made use of to sin. I am writing this at the command of God, so that no soul may find an excuse by saying there is no h**l, or that nobody has ever been there, and so no one can say what it is like...how terribly souls suffer there! Consequently, I pray even more fervently for the conversion of sinners. I incessantly plead God's mercy upon them. O My Jesus, I would rather be in agony until the end of the world, amidst the greatest sufferings, than offend you by the least sin." (Diary 741)

    if she commits suicide to kill a man and thus would be a murder in the eyes of god

    PRAY A GOD FOR THE SOUL OF YOUR WIFE

    And a lie is what the church says

    You can go to that you want god is present in all

    Preferably go to a Catholic because the others only care about money.

    who knows which lies you have said about this because Catholicism is the religion other sects are thirsty for money

    protects the Immaculate Conception!!

  4. she needs the help.  please, if you care about her, get her help!  The doctor visit can be between just you and your wife (and the doc of course)...no one else needs to know unless you feel the need to tell them.  But dont' let this fear of getting her labeled stop you from getting her help.

    If you need someone to talk to message me using the link on my profile.

  5. There are kids involved in this... so get her help. All it takes is that one time.

    I think it may be best to have her admitted to hospital. There they can watch her, get her immediate help and make sure she is more emotionally sound to be around her children and will not release her until then... and has support systems in place.

    If you think that is too much... what is too much is finding your dead parent on the floor one day.

    As well, maybe its time to find a new church. Outing her like that is not very God like (just my opinion).

    Please take her to an ER and let them know she need to be admitted for suicidal reasons.

    I wish you luck... I know it isn't easy.
