I am so very, very sorry, MomObvious.
We are nearly three weeks post-attempt with my husband who also OD-ed but with very different results. You words make my heart hurt for you, and brings back the pain. I am praying for you and your kids, that they will be able to grieve well and forgive their father.
Quote: " In his case I firmly believe his sever depression manifested into some type of manic episode the evening he took the overdose."
I did just want to comment on this, not necessarily for you (but maybe) but maybe for others who are reading this too. My DH has had suicidal ideations for quite awhile but never an actual plan. The night he OD-ed he had had a terrible incident at work (truly terrible, not just skewed-by-depression terrible) and he said it was like an atom bomb went off in his brain and he came home and just did it right then and there on the spot. So, of course seeking and getting treatment is vital in recovering from D and fallout, but sometimes there is just nothing that could have been done.
Again I am so sorry. If I could reach across the internet to hug you I would. With your permission, of course.
