but it is a frightening thing. i have 2 daughters with mental health issues and both did this for a while. i don't think either on does it now, but i don't know.
it is a heartbreaking thing to look at for someone who loves you, and i am sure that would include you.
your hubby might could use a bop in the head, tho. can't think of too many lonelier things that suffering before someone's eyes, and having them not see.

do what you need to take care of your self.
