Cat,

This is beyond the skills of a wife and mother. You need to get him to a mental hospital where they can stabilize him and help him. He needs professional help. I hope the therapist can steer him in the right direction. This is truly a crisis.

Cat---you ARE amazing.

I agree with Sara...

If you think he will harm himself, call 911...the police will come and gently talk him into having himself committed, (at least overnight) and if they think he may harm himself, THEY will commit him (at least overnight). (I have done this before--unfortunately)
