My husband has depression and post traumatic stress disorder. He has had depression for 15 years, it is well controlled with medication usually. But a stressful event 2 years ago caused his PTSD to ignite a bout of depression last year that caused him to have a spell in hospital. The same stressful event has bubbled away and caused him to relapse in December 2012 and once again he went into hospital for which he is still receiving inpatient treatment today.
Just now at 10.20pm I have had a phone call from a PC asking me if I would revoke my license due to my husbands depression. Uhhhhhhhm no I say what has it to do with him, I dont remember having to tell them on my recent renewal anything about my partner, lodger, house sharer, mother or sister. I did agree that they could check with my doctor about MY mental health. At the end of the day my husband has no idea where my cabinet keys are kept nor does he really care. I dont leave the gun unattended with him and so really want to know how to deal with this situation as a firearms copper is going to call me tomorrow.
I am f**ing furious that this has even occured as his words were, if I say no I may be forced to revoke it, how bloody fair is that? I have to give up a hobby I want to enjoy because someone I live with has a mental health issue. Good job I am not a lodger in a HMO with any crims, dealers, hookers or depressives!
Advice please anyone before I loose the bloody plot over this.
