Need some advice regarding relative who used the S word yesterday
#2
Is he resistant to seeking therapy? All depressed people think about suicide; that doesn't necessarily make them suicidal (ask me how I know). Did you sense from his email that he is an imminent threat to himself?

Try to talk to him about seeing a psychiatrist to see about medication (which helps) and a therapist (also helps). Don't dwell on the s-word. Let him know you're concerned and thinking about ways he could get some help. Maybe try that before you approach is wife.
