Please say a prayer for my young niece. She tried to kill herself today. She's in hospital with her mum and dad by her side tonight. We thought she was feeling better. She'd been happy the last few weeks. Now we know that's a sign.

Hi Mrs Freddie :-x

My niece went through a really bad phase months ago. My sister and BIL are the most loving parents. They have tried everything to help her and I mean EVERYTHING.  Doctors won't prescribe anti-deps because they say she isn't depressed. Just suicidal!

WHY????????????????????

Bullying is part of it. Maybe all of it. Teenage angst. She knows she is hurting her family and that makes her feel worse. Her father has sat by her bedside weeping all night. Her mother is numb with shock, in fight mode.

WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY??

There's some kind of suicide culture going on with our young people. My nieces friend threw herself in front of a train a couple of years ago. She's idolised now. They have called the bridge, where she threw herself into the path of the train, after her.

I'm so angry right now. Sorry 😞

And she a very young 15. She looks 12. A tiny slip of girl, sweet.

I'm worried about my sister.

Every god damn Xmas. 3 xmas's ago Mr Ex announced "he loved me but wasn't in love with me" the day before Xmas Eve, and my BIL was diagnosed with cancer. Last Xmas little Ava was born, both Ava and her Mum fighting for their lives.

Now my niece tries to kill herself.

I HATE XMAS

Thinking of you and your family and holding you all up in Prayer Cat. Such a hard age for young girls. We are fighting this in my daughter's circle of friends. It is hard to know what to do.

Thank you. :-x

I've calmed down after my outburst. My sister needs my help today, she just texted. Will pick her up from the hospital when she texts me. I think feeling powerless and helpless makes you frustrated and angry.

I feel better knowing I can be of some help today.

That's the awful part of all this. You can plead, beg, take them to psych's and counsellors, enrol them in sports, take them on holiday, talk and talk and talk, hug them, love them, teach them, more talk, more love.

What works?, because we have no clue. No one does. How do you instil the belief in them that their life is precious?

All you can do is be there, let them know they are loved and that you are there to be whatever they need you to be. Watch them, know their circle of friends, listen...not just to them but the tone around them. There have been times I have hidden all of the meds in the house and sat up all night. It is a rollercoaster.

Oh miss mioux I am so sorry to hear about your niece.  Hugs to you and all my thoughts are with you and the family. I hope you niece is able to leave hospital very soon it is so sad when they feel there is no one there to help them even thought she obviously has a family that love and care for her very much.

Kylie I have never being in your postition so I can't give any advice but the advice given by wptw sounds pretty sound to me. Samantha is beautiful she is growing up so fast.
