What should my next step be?
Today something really scary happened to me. My fiance, who I have been with for the last 7 and a half years, came into my work today acting very strange. I could tell there was a major problem. So I followed him into the parking lot. He was being very mean and kept saying he should be dead and he is not meant to live ( because of a situation that happened in the army). He said he wants to commit suicide. He also shoved me. Wheb I scolded him for that, he said that wasnt a shove. A shove is when I end up on the ground and dont get back up. He has NEVER done anything like this EVER!!!! I am in shock....

what ever you believe is best for the both of you/s because if you do it on your own and without him it will make him feel worse, but if you do it with him it might still get worse it's a catch 22 you need help but you dont want to hurt people that are helping you if he show's up i feel for you i hope some one on ep can help you ill check in on you from time to time, im thinking of you.

Agreeing with @Hatiwolf, sounds like PTSD, can be very bad. Urgent, urgent need to get counseling. He needs to call 1-800-273-TALK (1-800-273-8255), get an evaluation and some support. Locator for PTSD programs is at http://www2.va.gov/directory/guide/ptsd_flsh.asp

if he has been in the forces im not excusing things here but it might not be his fault. he needs to get counselling if he is having a had time in civiy street . on no account should you tolerate abuse but he dose need as much love and support you can show him.

this is the worst thing about the forces they can train a man to go into a war zone but its harder to undo that training. its helping i promise. but you must get him professional help and don't let him crawl in to a bottle. i have seen this with friends i know how you feel its confusing. good luck

I defiantly think you need to try and get him to see someone because it sounds like he is losing his marbles. You need to see if you can get someone to come and see him or somehow get him to go see someone
