my bf has been having suicidal thoughts lately. i'm so worried about him. his pain in his arm has gotten worse no matter what they've tried. they won't give him narcs in fear of him him getting addicted. we just had another argument and he left. the last time we argued (which was last week) he threatened to KILL HIMSELF. but he left this time so i'm not sure what to do.

just a quick background....
we've been together since July 06 (3 yrs). he's been on 2 combat deployments and got out of the Marines this past Jan. i too am a former Marine but got out in 05. it's been a roller coaster of a relationship and beginning last year i have been trying to get us relationship counseling. but last year he backed out at the last minute. finally he agreed to go this time, which our 1st appt will be on the 19th Oct.

we just got into another argument about the couples counseling again. i screamed at him because he said that it was "pathetic" that i thought we needed a counselor. he said (same as last year) that we should "trust each other to solve our own problems" and i told him that i can't live like this where we argue all the freakin time... and that if we don't get help, i'm giving up on him.

last week he told me that i'm his only reason to live and that if we fail he will blow brains out (exact words). but i dont understand, if i'm his only reason to live, then why is he fighting the couples counseling so hard?? he said he will go but he's pissed about it.

i don't know what to do! he left and i'm scared he may do something stupid. he talks to his therapist today and i'm thinking of calling her. please please please pray for him! thanks so much.....
