Went to Dr. Umar today.. I told him everything. He wants me to check Into the hospital, since i've been having suicidal thoughts, I'm worried, and I'm not really sure how to tell my mom. I know I need to go, I'm just afraid of what my mom will think, and the financial burden it would put on her and
My dad.. Prayers? I really think being in the hospital is the best thing for me
Right now.

Suicidal thoughts are one thing...suicidal plans are another.

Suicidal thought is our way of wrapping our minds around emotional trauma. We\'re trying to find some way to get comfort through things that are very painful.

Yes, suicide seems like an end of itself. But, while it may be for you or me, it\'s only the beginning of pain and heartache for others.

Once you\'re gone, you\'re gone. The best thing for your world to do, is to help you find the source of your pain and do something about it.

I think Dr. Umar has your best intentions in mind, however; it\'s only going to help in getting you stabilized (perhaps) this time. What you need is something that\'s going to keep working for you.

In the meantime, if you really need to speak to someone, contact your local Crisis Center at 1-800-273-TALK. A caring volunteer is waiting to help you and if you don\'t call them, they\'re not going to have anything to do. I know, cause I are one!

Don\'t do this alone...ask for and accept help. You didn\'t get into this world by yourself, you won\'t leave without help, so why not take the help in between the beginning and ending of your life.

Your doctor only wants the best for you so I would do what they say. Don\'t worry about the money, I\'m sure your parents want you to be healthy and happy above all else anyways. I know its hard to accept help when you don\'t feel like you need it but they wouldn\'t suggest it without good reason. Take care of yourself dear.

If you feel like you need to go, GO. As parents it is our job to work out the other details. You need to focus on your mental health right now. If you need hospitalization and a therapist that you trust has recommended it, GO

The adolecent psyc ward is the best place to get help. Don\'t be afraid to go there. As for your parents, the finacial burden will be nothing compared to know that thier child has killed themselves. Im sure that they will, if not right away, understand why you went in and be glad you did. It helpd me soooooooooo much when I went. Please try it.

Your life is more important that finance for a little while. Please go.
Praying for you. x
