Last weekend I was at a party in my apartment complex. The people hosting the party have lived next to me all year so I went over there to have a few beers and hang out.
The night was going well there wasn't too many people and the conversation was good.
As the party started to cool down one of the guys that lives there (we'll call him Adam) got into a fight with his girlfriend and she stormed off in an attempt to drunk drive..after we prevented that, because no one is going to drunk drive around me, she gets a friend to pick her up and leaves. Shortly after Adam goes after her and gets someone else to take him over there.
The night now goes down hill drastically.
This fight spawns another fight between another couple...but things get way too heated...the guy in this arguement (we'll call him Jack) runs to the cutlery draw and grabs a knife..a rather large knife and held it up to a girl (This does not fly with me or anyone else at the party) so we disarm him. 10 minuites later hes back in there and this time he stabs himself in the stomach with the knife.
Now this is pretty scary.
I call an ambulance and the police and they come and take him away..after he pleads not to be taken to the hospital (there is no way someone with a stab wound is not going to the hospital)
I was updated today on his condition and sitauation.
He had stabbed 2 inches into his body.
He luckily missed all internal organs.
To analyze the damage he had to have his chest cut open about 10 inches.
He has been put into mental care for 10 days and has lost his job.
All because of a stupid fight with his girlfriend....
I can't understand the mentality it takes to stab yourself. Especially over something so small. This has potentially ruined his life. I understand he no doubt has some kind of depression which needs to be handled but there is never a reason to take your life.
