Excerpt
I didn’t just hit rock bottom, I crashed into it.
Anger coiled in my chest with every step towards the gun cage. As I started to unload my service revolver, the world blurred, like I was watching a movie in slow motion, every sound muffled and distant. Time collapsed into a black tunnel.
Snap out of it, I told myself.
The next thing I knew, I had pressed the barrel under my chin, trigger at the reset. Just then, I heard someone whistling—light and unaware—behind a row of shelving. My breath froze. Instinct took over, and I eased my finger off the trigger, put the gun down. I quickly unloaded it and locked it away.
Holy fuck.
I was drenched in sweat, shaking so violently I could hardly breathe. It was the closest I’d come to using it. I stumbled into an empty office and picked up the phone. My voice was shaking, but the words were clear: “I need help. I’m having suicidal thoughts.” My union rep didn’t hesitate. He told me to call my doctor, to get therapy, to reach out if the thoughts got worse. I hung up and texted Suzanne: 911.
She called back before I could take another breath.
“Dean, are you safe?” she asked.
“No,” I whispered, voice cracking.
