Unfortunately for him, this escapade is only going to make matters a lot worse.

So the girlfriend and/or her bf Somchai decided to murder him and he jumped of the balcony to escape the stabbings.

Only speculation but at first glance that would look a more likely scenario.  Hopefully he will recover and be able to tell the real story.

Another swede that are unhappy in Thailand, persuming that the information is correct, it´s very bad work to first stab himself numerous times and after jump and not get the work done.

Stab himself 7 times and jumped out of a window

If I was an expat me I would be packing soon too much of this going on now

Why would your unfounded speculation "look like a more likely scenario"?

Based on that post alone, no one needs your advice, so let's hope TV don't agree to it.

And looking at your previous posts only reinforces my thoughts

" and then jumped from the third floor  "   does anyone see a slight flaw in his suicide plan?

Hard to say. Robin Williams slit his wrists first and when that didn't work hung himself. There is no logic only an overwhelming desire to stop living

Here we go again......Thailand must be the 'must-go' country for manic depressives. I wonder how many GENUINE suicides have resulted from the person stabbing themselves SEVERAL times?
