[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 550131, member: 3305"] Tiredof33, I am so sorry to hear about your two family members that committed suicide. That is so very sad. And I really appreciate the passage you shared. My young difficult child, like your son, has expressed suicidal feelings and has engaged through taking pills and stabbing himself in the arm in the past 3 yrs or so. It is terrifying to think about but I am reminded that, those who do go through with it, often don't tell anyone, they just do it. I have tried to plant seeds in my young difficult child's thought life. I have told him of times over the past 20 something yrs when I myself felt that suicide was an answer. But...I was brought back to reality because I had children to care for. I have tried to use this same reasoning with my young difficult child. Whatever works. I think I will write this passage down for myself and keep it in a safe place as my young difficult child should be returning home from prison in the next 3 months and things could get to that point again if he gets too anxious and scared. Thanks again, and hoping that your son's pain, as well as your own, will lessen with time. caring hugs, LMS [/QUOTE]
