Just wanted to say forget politics and hatred of any kind! Make the most of life while you can and enjoy it! Tonight my 15yr old daughter lies in a hospital bed after trying to cut her wrists! I am torn to pieces as her stepdad and after reading some of the recent forum posts it's got me thinking life's too short for fucking around and causing grief ! Please people spread love not hatred etc! I also ask you pray for my daughter! Thankyou fellow fabswingers! Remember we get but one chance at life! Cling to it.

On my ass at the moment and yes I'm having a drink! Well more than one! I'm only stepdad so can't even try to imagine how Sammi is feeling! Why is life such a bitch! And no I'm not feeling sorry for myself as I've been through the same many many years ago well before meeting Sammi but its so hard seeing my daughter going through it! It's not something parents should see their kids go through! Makes one wonder is there a god? If so why does he put kids through this shit ! They should be having fun just like we did as kids growing up! |

although i dont pray (not a religious person) your step daughters welfare will be in my thoughts for the next few days.
it was a cry for help, and now those that may not have seen what she has been going through are now fully aware.
please dont just look at the negatives in that she tried to take her own life (suicide is such that, if it was meant to have happened, it would have been successful) but the positive in that, at least now you know she has been going through some form of personal turmoil that she has, up until now, felt she cannot share with yourselves.
now that it has come out, in the most horrific way imaginable, you can all come together, as a loving family, and help her defeat the demons that are making her life difficult.
good luck to you all.
i wish you all the best love and wishes i can muster.

cos shes a kid mate. I know how shite I thought life was back then an I recon id feel it even more so today. An just cos your not her biological dad doesn't mean you feel any less for her in fact in my mind it proves how much you do feel for her. For a start your her step dad because you want to be I mean any 2 bit prick can father a child it takes a real man to be a real dad so stop knocking yourself if your anything like the dad I am your pure gold |

I don't want my baby going through this! i've been there myself in the past myself, done it and got the tee shirt! she's never done anything to hurt anyone so why has it happened to her when there are total asholes out there who deserve to be punished and have made other peoples lives a total misery but yet they get away scot free! and my baby is the one who is suffering! I'm a non practising irish catholic but right now i'm questioning is there really a god out there! and if there is why make innocent people suffer??? Sorry just need to let off some steam somewhere!

One thing is to remember this is about her. I understand the pain you and the rest of the family must be feeling but this is her cry for help and she will need calm understanding. Any panic could be a barrier to her opening up and to be quite honest, due to the fact this has happened, the strange hospital is probably the best place for her.
When I was in, there were many other patients who went around thinking they were in prison when really they needed help and nursing. Please try to assure her that however confined she may feel in there, the staff will always be doing their best to monitor, assess and find the right course of treatment for her.
Any wish on your part for her to come home quickly will detract from that. Reassure her that you all love her and care for her and that home will be there for when she is released but to try and trust, open to and discuss with the hospital staff who can seem detached and scary. They have a tough time doing their job and I know from my experience that putting myself in their hands helped me and them immensely.
I cannot emphasise this enough. |

Like I said a real dad. Now get your shit together starting with slinging that bottle its making your job harder right now.

Because YOUR doughter needs her dad. Now in the nicest posible way mate fuck off you've work to do tomorrow |

we know what you are saying we have told the staff we do not want her at home until she is ready to come home and gets herself sorted out! Like i said before i've been in the same position myself many many years ago and know deep down she is in the best place at the moment its just as parents we dont want to see her in such a position and yes we feel as if we've let her down somehow! that we didnt see the warning signs but you never think its gonna happen to one of your own it always seems to be something you read about or hear happenong to other peoples kids! |

The very best of luck for your daughter, she is in the best place. we wish her well.
Its not always easy to see the warning signs. Hindsight is a wonderfull thing. Its in the open now and can be dealt with, she has the support of a loveing family.
Youre not just a step dad, youre dad.
Be strong. Good luck xx |

My thoughts are with you all. With your support I'm sure whatever the problems are for her they can now start to be worked through. I really feel for her, it's tough when you hit that bad place, but from my experience the only way to go from being so low is upwards. Xxxxx |

my thoughts are with you and all your family. this is very close to my heart as my brother succeeded with his suicide attempt in august, and I know how hard it can be and all the questions that you will need answers to.
she will get the help she needs now and with your love and support will begin to see things aren't as bad as she thinks.
be strong, and be understanding is my advice xxx |

After working with numerous young people who self harm
I can empathise how stressful it must be as a parent
My best advice is just to be constant and listen without trying to say "don't do this again"
I went on some training regarding self harm and it really opened my eyes
Maybe it would be an idea to try and find something like this ...
May sound extreme but it will really help you understand it and definitely help you to deal with it appropriately
Best wishes |

My best wishes for you and your family, billie. Of course there's overwhelming turmoil now, but at least something can be done about your daughter's problems.
Get some sleep. You'll need all your energy.

One of my grandfathers used to always tell me too grab life with both hands and shake your future out of it. I myself believe you gently guide your future out of life.
Hope your step daughter recovers well. All you can give is love, patience, understanding and a ear for when she is ready and wants to talk.
Much love to all your family. |

I'm glad the forum was here for you, as ever talking about things alleviates some of the anger, hurt, and fear.
And a big thanks to you for reminding us that no matter how seemingly secure, comfy, fulfilling our lives might be the ceiling can fall in on us without warning, leaving us unprepared and bewildered.
If there are any positives coming out of these awful experiences is that it perhaps teaches us humility, and tolerance of people's situations where we might previously have judged.
Stay strong |

2wheels just pointed me in the direction of this post. My heart goes out to all of you, her friends and loved ones.
I took a huge overdose aged 14 and the doctors don't understand how I survived.
From my experience, right now she just needs a big hug and lots of love. I realise it's hard to understand or even begin to contemplate her reasons for doing such a drastic thing but right now, if she's like I was she will be feeling a lot of guilt and she will feel more vulnerable now than what she did before as her feelings are more exposed.
I don't want to lecture or preach about how you should both talk to her or what to talk about but please do message me or say here if you want me to talk more about my experience, how it made me feel and how I wished things were handled by my parents. I don't mind discussing things about myself openly if it'll help others.
Thinking of you both and your daughter.

My sympathies. My husband put our daughter on the bus, phoned me to say she should be home in half an hour. Ten minutes later I got a call from Maudsley our local mental health hospital to say ny daughter had walked in. The hospital was the next stop from where her dad had put her on.
I was confused, what was she doing there? I phoned my ex and we met at the hospital: at this time they sent us across the road to King's A&E where she was.
Her body was a network of cuts, even her wrists. It was a nightmare time she was sectioned, allowed out for her 16th birthday then back in again.
This was a total shock to the whole family, we didn't have a clue she was struggling, we felt such failures.
Fast forward six years and my daughter is working towards her masters, medication free, no longer self harming and freely talks about that time as the scars on her arms are visible with a loving boyfriend.
Things can work out with love and support: trust it works out for your family. |

Once more Sammi and myself would like to thank all those who posted on here and sent us private messsages of support and well wishes!
We will keep you all posted on how things progress.

"UPDATE: 23rd Sept
Hi folks, just to let you all know that our daughter has been discharged from hospital today and starts her counselling courses next Monday!
Yes we are only too well aware that this is only the start of the uphill battle for both our daughter and ourselves but atleast it's a step in the right direction and its great to have her home again!
Once more Sammi and myself would like to thank all those who posted on here and sent us private messsages of support and well wishes!
We will keep you all posted on how things progress.
S&B"
Thats great news
and from now it will be baby steps but im sure as each day passes, she will improve.
She has great support |

glad things are returning to some form of normality.
at least now you know your daughter has issues and you are able to help her moving forward, and she doesnt feel she needs to 'cry for help' as it were.
congrats to all concerned and give her our love |

"Just wanted to say forget politics and hatred of any kind! Make the most of life while you can and enjoy it! Tonight my 15yr old daughter lies in a hospital bed after trying to cut her wrists! I am torn to pieces as her stepdad and after reading some of the recent forum posts it's got me thinking life's too short for fucking around and causing grief ! Please people spread love not hatred etc! I also ask you pray for my daughter! Thankyou fellow fabswingers! Remember we get but one chance at life! Cling to it.
Billy"

Thinking and praying for you and your family.. especially for her to be able to express what compelled her to do this, and that you can help her through it.
My beloved 12yo cat died this morning and I nearly posted it on the forums.. but something told me not to.. now I know why!
This is just the start of a long journey of recovery for her, and therefore you too.
Love and hugs to you all.. make this bring your family together and not let it tear you apart!!
