My girlfriend is getting worse everyday, she tried to kill herself last night by stabbing her veins open with a safety pin, she knows how much it hurts and triggers me to see her doing this along with being an alcoholic, now shes telling me shes prbley going to kill herself and shes lieing to everyone else about it, if she dies i go with her.......... I dont know what to do
a couple months ago, i was trying to kill myself and my boyfriend was sooo worried about me the whole time. but once i talked about why i was in so much pain, it gradually improved. for now, im living for him. i made him my motivation for living, because he's all i have.
little known fact: alot of us suffer so much because we have no motivation to feel any other way. somehow try to get her inspired and motivated. looking up survival stories of people who have recovered from suicide and cutting have helped me alot.
she really does need help though. is there any way at all that you could tell someone or take her to get some professional help? i wish you the absolute best of luck with this!!! xxx
"if you promise you wont do it again we wont take you to the hospital."
Im sick of them not doing anything. they stand back and hope she'll turn out the best. I try to make her look at the good things but shes quick to point out the bad things. she also has a problem with being around a large number of people which is usually the first thing that motivates her. Thx for your advice!
As i myself have on numerous occassions tried to commit suicide in many differant ways. And it totally destroyed my partner up to watch me go through all the pain and agony that i was experiencing at the time.
I strongly advise that you take her to the hospital despite what her parents say to her or you as she defiantly does need the help from professionals. With her having the problem with large number of
people i strongly suggest for now that you avoid any situation that you may think that there will be a big group of people there. Mainly
to keep away the things that she is finding that is triggering her off all the time to try commit suicide.
Please Please dont stand back and watch her take the pain out on herself and destroy a good relationship, its not worth it. Believe me.
She and her family will thank you at the end of it all for getting the required help for her that she so deperately needs at this point and time.
You have done the right thing by reaching out to get advise and others input its now upto you what you do with this information that you recieve.
hope everything smooths out for you real soon and that you let me know how things are going. take great care.
The fact that she told you means she wants help. Even if she denies it, she does. You have to take charge with this. If you dont you could really louse her... Take her to treatment. Save her and yourself love..
