We had been arguing about issues of honesty recently... I'm at work, shes off for the night, and we're texting over steam with our argument that basically ended on me saying I was going to leave and be done with it. About an hour later I check back and see a suicide note and start thinking seriously about it. She's always been dramatic about that stuff but usually she'd just go to bed. I tried calling her a few times, didnt get a response and started to worry. >>cont

>>150838 I tell my supervisor I have to leave and my stuff is mostly done and start running the moment I get outside. When I opened the door I thought for sure she'd just be sleeping. But there she was laying in the tub with her eyes closed, surrounded by knives. The water was discoloured and reddish and my heart fucking sank. Thinking back to it now it still shocks and scares me. You see it in movies, but its not the same. Ive known this girl for 12 years >>cont

>>150846 I dont remember what I said, probably "oh my god no" I know I started crying immediately. Her head was leaned on the side of the tub, but she wasnt responding, she wasnt moving, and I kept trying to shake her awake asking "are you alive? ARE YOU ALIVE? PLEASE BE ALIVE. PLEASE BE ALIVE." I was crying so hard I could barely see, and she starts making a noise but it isnt a word. Just a sad sort of crying sound. I didnt know where she was hurt or how bad it was >>cont

>>150854 I'm holding onto her and saying "hang on, hang on, im going to call 911, please hang on, please be okay, please be okay" and she keeps making these small sad muffled sounds. I didnt know if her neck was cut, or she had sliced both of her wrists, I had no idea what state she was in. But when the 911 operator came on I was just breathing heavy and panicked with every word. The lady on the phone was the same kind of unsympathetic seen it all voice youd expect >>cont

>>150859 "Please send help as fast as possible." "Where is she hurt" "I dont know, I think she may be cut but I dont know" "Is she breathing?" "Yes, but shes not very responsive, i dont know how bad it is. Please hurry" I ended up draining the tub, and the first people to arrive were the police who must have been checking for all the evidence and signs on the scene first in case it was a murder. They didnt really touch her, but they did point out the wine bottle I missed >>cont

>>150867 It felt like forever for the paramedics to get there, but in that time I kept cradling her head and shoulder telling her its going to be okay, as she struggled to say "im sorry" over and over and cry in those small noises. When the paramedics got there they managed to get some response from her, and asked me to leave the room while they checked her over. Eventually getting us all together and taking us to the hospital. >>cont

>>150871 All in all, her injuries werent the worst. She had a couple of good cuts on both her leg and her wrist. Along with many small scrapes where she had pushed hard with the dull knives. That colour in the water was her blood, but none of the paramedics or police really noted it since I drained it before they got there. I guess she drank a lot so she wouldnt be scared when she did it, but even then it was still scary. I stayed with her all day at the hospital >>cont

>>150877 They sent us home with a recommendation to a mental health counselling. Spent most of that day crying and wasnt able yo get the shock out of my head. Two days later things feel a little more normal. But im still anxious leaving her alone even when shes not miserable. I feel like that scene might stay with me for life, and I really wanted to tell someone. I hope this counselling ends up helping. Or else im going to be scared every time I open the door coming home.

>>150882 I'm sorry to hear that, hope she'll understand that you can't live this way and learn to let you go. The alternative is that you're stuck with someone who will make you fell bad and scared for her forever. Good luck anyway, hope you'll have an happy life.

Known her for 12 years OP wrote. Well it is known that around after 10 years all relationships have a shake. It seems like human minds work that way. It is a maximum of crisis, either the couple passes it and can continue for very long and it serves as a life obstacle passed, either they split up. These splitups are usually hurtful for at least one person. I do not know much more. Just will wish you the best OP and that girl a fast recovery. People do change after smth similar.

>>151069 In my case, the first few lies have stuck in my mind since the beginning, and get refreshed even over minor lies. Its hard to trust someone who's lied multiple times without good reason. Despite that i've stayed with her this long, and given how she turned out, its hard for her to function without me now. One side of me wants to leave and start a new life, but knowing she'll be miserable, or worse yet kill herself will keep me here for her sake. Hopefully it gets better.

>>151091 I do not want to seem unpolite but she seems to be attractive in your eyes and good in sex. Without those traits I personally would find it difficult to resist the little lies everyday as part of life. After she recovers you must make it clear to her that you dislike, no, hate, lies. If anything they are what will be the undoing of your relation. She must understand that the lies are what sparked and escalated to the horror you both endured.

Tfw my girlfriend has suicidal tendencies

Wait so you were going to leave her, and then attempting suicide to get you to stay worked?

Look up co-dependence, get into therapy, get yourself better. If she wants to come along and get better too, the great, if not then you will outgrow her and hopefully have the courage to leave w/o dragging it on forever. She should have been in mental hospital and started therapy/meds after suicide... it's not ok to do something like that and then dismiss it or avoid dealing with it. She has serious mental health symptoms that are not your fault or responsibility. She needs to grow

Idk dude. I think you better leave her and find a new gf. Living with a drama queen like that isn't going to do well for you in the long run.

That's quite a story you got there. It definitely isn't a healthy relationship, but you realize that already. Personally I would leave a girl without looking back, if she pulled a suicide card early in the relationship, but being together for 12 years definitely changes things... Guess you have to see how the therapy goes and then decide.

>>152129 Well, therapy was offered to us and we accepted right away. It just takes time to get an appointment, the health system is slow here.
>>152708 Yeah, at this stage I have a perspective few people will ever see for themselves. I feel responsible for her, and I need to make sure she's okay. The first appointment should be later this week, hopefully we get the help we need going forward.
