Thanks for this, WePow. I went a long time without acknowledging that I just wanted my parents to be there. When I was a teenager, they found out from one of my friends that I was pretty seriously suicidal. But they never said anything to me. And haven't to this day, even after I ended up attempting suicide twice in my early 20s. I thought I had gotten past all of that, but it seems to be reverberating in my life right now.
