My day has just been much worse after I talked with my dad on the phone. That person knows how to push me right to edge of giving up on life. Now I’m in bed unable to move scared like you wouldn’t believe and I don’t know what to do. I just want to die and get away. Can I have some nice words from some of you?

I am so sorry your dad has this effect on you.

Though we can't do this 100% of the time with family--just stay away from him in every way as much as is practical. When you are tempted to make contact--remember his effect.
Thanks for this!

So sad you're having to go through this. Families can be cruel! Try to connect with friends!
Thanks for this!

I'm sorry what he said to you.

You are best at the way you are. Don't let him let you down.

Can you loosen up to do some reading? Reading is a very intimate thing because when you read, you're sharing the thoughts of the author. But I know that anxiety can make reading impossible. Try to distract yourself the best you can. I'm sorry your father has such a bad effect on you.
Thanks for this!

I'm so sorry he is so toxic. I agree with HopingTrying, try to keep a distance from him if this is at all possible. If you have to talk to him, try to set boundaries and keep the discussions short.

When I'm stressed, I find it helpful to watch a comedy on TV, or watch fun YouTube videos. It can really boost my mood, and get my mind off my troubles.

Hang in there!

Thank you. Still feeling horrible. I will try some reading and watch videos. Anything to get my mind off the suicidal thoughts.
