For about 2 years (I last did it quite a while ago now) I used to be in small community of flight simulation enthusiasts. It was all online but we used a thing called Teamspeak to communicate and would fly in a server on Microsoft Flight Simulator.

We were all very freindly, and some of the runners of it actually had proper job titles, like CEO and Administrator etc...

Well anyway, we were all good. I was on particularly good terms with Paul Taylor - the owner (and CEO) of Gatwick Virtual Airport (http://www.gatwick-atc.com/ - shut down now) and I would tell him small bits like how I was bullied at school (never in depth) and he was a real genuinely nice bloke.

I got sent this by a freind on MSN today (I met him through GVA 9 Gatwick Virutal Airport (renamed to Gatwick Virtual ATC) : http://www.kent.police.uk/News/Lates...sentenced.html

I feel really shocked, and physically sick. I'm 15, and when I joined I was 13. He's seen pictures of me at that age and below. Who knows if he had any of me in his collection. He also knew my address.

Blah. It makes me want to be sick just writing this, and when I think of it, probably because im so shocked. I just do not know how to react.

I also have another worry, my dad has been waking up with specs of blood on his pillow. He went to see the doctor and the sent him to hospital for some reason. My dad wont tell me anything and when I ask him about it he goes quiet. All he will tell me is that he's been to hospital a few times - and that was only when i asked.

He has also been feeling really rough and on the news someone had exactly the same - blood specs on her pillow. She went to see the doctor and a while later, got diagnosed with lung cancer.

I am really worried for him. Tears come to my eyes when i think about it. I know everyone will think im just thinking the worse, but everything's pointing to this!!!

I havent self harmed for two months, I'm worried that I might not get to the third. Next week I am going to ask him straight up what the **** is going on ?

Sorryfor the rant.

In_The_Darkness, I'm so sorry, shocked, and saddened. There's a personal side to this for me - one of my favourite teachers when I was about your age turned out to be a pedophile. I had no idea, no clue at all.

Regarding your father, you are close to the threshold of adulthood; I hope Father levels with you about what's going on with him. My sincere best wishes for your father's health and your personal peace of mind.

Have a TON of hugs, and then have some more. I would be as shocked and disgusted as you.

I'm so sorry about your dad. Of course you're worried, I would be too! But please don't let your fears lead you back to self harm... No matter what's going on with your dad, I'm sure that what he needs most right now is for you to do what you can to take care of yourself. Is there anyone you can talk to, like a therapist or a counsellor, who might be able to help you get through this? Sending even more hugs.

I feel so helpless. And with helplessness comes the urge to self harm. And I did, I burnt myself. Two months free ? Not anymore!

Do you have any close friends that you can contact to get you through the rough patch? You should write down your anger and frustration on paper (poetry, journal, etc)...it could very well be beneficial for you. One day at a time----Start fresh with no more SI (count days if it helps you)

Seems like friends are few and far between when you need help the most. You ought to try to do something to relieve some stress though. Not really sure what to say besides writing out feelings (as its helped me in the past)...
