Rachel,
I'm glad to hear things are going better for you this week. It sounds like Lori has given some good faith-based advice.
I'm sorry to hear about your mothers struggles too with depression. You're right, when we're in soo much pain everything else is fogged in our minds. It doesn't make us a selfish person, it's the result of our coping abilities being outweighed by our struggles and pain and this is when we need intervention and professional care. It can be hard living with the fear that a loved one is going to hurt themselves, I've seen the fear in my parents eyes. Is your mother currently under the care of a doctor? Are there steps being taken to reduce the risk of another suicide attempt?
As to whether or not return home, do you feel safe at home right now? Is there a safe place where you can stay until your husband begins treatment?
If you ever need a listening ear, you can always e-mail me and I'll respond within 48 hrs.
