Question:
Answers:
I had become very depressed. I would not leave the house. I had lost my job due to down sizing. I was on unemployment. I had my check deposited into my bank account. I knew I had to feed my daughter, so we lived on food that could be delivered. We stayed inside with the blinds and curtains pulled. I shut off my phones so no one could contact me. my daughter new she was not allowed to answer the door, but only for the delievery drivers of food for her. no one could no what I was going through. I was very suicidal. I wanted to die. My daughter was going back to school in the fall. So I became more depressed that she was gone. I had to send her to school, or people would get concerned if she was not in school. I layed in bed day and nite and cried. i did not bathe. I could not even watch tv. all i did was cry and plan my funeral. i new i could not leave my daughter so she had to *** with me. two days before school started, i took my daughter out of town to buy clothes for our funeral. i also had to get her back to school supplies, because i was not done planning our funeral so she had to go to school. one day my door bell rang, and it rang and rang. i finally peaked out, it was my daughters principle. i thought oh my god. what happened to my daughter. i was scared so i ran to the door. my daughter had gone to school and told her teacher how I was sad and cried all the time and was planning a funeral. this princaple had known me since I was a kid. I had her for a teacher. my daughter goes to the same school I went to. She refused to leave untill I showered and went with her to the hospital. I was so relieved that it was finally over, that someone had come to save me. I think your friend wants help, and she is waiting for someone to come and save her. Unless she is doing this for attention, either way she needs help. You have to save her. Something is not right in her life and it is bringing her down. You can tell her over and over to go get help, but she wont do it. You have to bring help to her. You need to bring someone to her who is trained and can take her to get help. Call your local social service or hospital and they will give you places to contact. you may be running out of time. so you have to act fast. of course she will not see a dr. and you can not make her, but trained proffessionals can help her and will help her make the first move at getting her depression under control. telling her parents may not be a smart choice. they may be putting so much pressure on her to succeed that they will only look down opon her. When I was hospitalized for depression my mother came to see me and brought my daughter. My mother looked at me and told me I was a looser, and not even smart enough to go through with the suicide. In my mothers eyes I had failed her. You need to go make a phone call now. even if you have to call the police and have them come and get her, and they can put her on a 48 hour hold in a hospital and get her help. you may be running out of time...
