Never any warnings with my ex. She'd be mid sentence standing up and peace out - hell, it happened once with our daughter in her arms. It'd be me diving under her and putting the heel of my hand in her mouth. The thing that really sucked, was that she'd come to and ask what happened, I'd tell her, and she'd be legitimately hurt that I didn't call an ambulance, as if we hadn't gone through it before. As if she weren't on the meds. As if it would help, as if we hadn't already been told to expect it. As if I wasn't busy trying to keep her from busting her skull or biting her tongue.
It became one of many wedges. I really didn't know what to do other than what I was told to do, ride it out, call an ambulance if it went too long, as soon as she wasn't a danger to herself. We always wound up at the doctor but I could feel the resentment, like she thought I was hoping she'd just die. You'd think she'd know better, what with me being a sniveling mess (and not exactly being a cryer, in any other circumstance) everytime she came back....but no.
I get it, she was terrified....but, otoh, I didn't get -that- response...you know?
