Ah, but he didn't actually come out and say, "I would have killed myself". He was quite careful with his wording and pretty much said, "It would have been the end...." and left me to fill in the blanks, of course. The last time he threatened suicide, I told him I'd call the police so that they could come and help him, that was right after the DUI and he was feeling quite remorseful and having a pity party.
