...make a suicide pact with him. He even went into great discussion about which season he preferred to die in. Asked me whether I would prefer to die in the winter or the summer. Who would shoot who first, etc.
Now, mind you, he knows I have been hospitalized in the past for suicidal ideation and/or attempts. To say he hasn't been the father I've always wished for would be an understatement, but jeeeeezzzz.... I'm totally messed up by this. Why does he want to take me with him? Okie

Oh, honey....
Sometimes people are just afraid of dying alone. You CAN'T agree to this. I know it's hard, but you have to be firm on this. If dying alone is his fear, it may deter him from going through with it. Either way, you should seek help from a professional on his behalf.

total agree. whether you want to take the plunge or not, he has no right to ask his own daughter to take her life also. thats just selfish. he needs to realize that there is something wrong in asking a person, especially your daughter, to do this.

Please contact someone who can help him. It sounds like he really needs some help right now. I am sorry he is involving you in his life decisions. Sometimes when people get to that point their thinking gets distorted. It certainly could be where he is at right now. Please do whatever you need to stay safe.

((((((((((((((( okie ))))))))))))))))
Oh honey, I'm so sorry that your dad has done this to you. It really speaks volumes as to where he is mentally right now and he needs assistance....and sweetheart....so do you in dealing with this. He obviously wasn't thinking about your past situation when he was talking with you about this. Desperation makes us unclear in our thoughts and words. (((((((((((((((( okie ))))))))))))))))) I'm just a pm away if you want to talk......please take good care of YOU!  sabby |

Im so very sorry to read of this. It sounds like your dad is in the worse place. You need to make sure you are both safe and I think you need to get him to a doctors ASAP/. Please, please be very careful here.

How horrible for you.
I agree with posts before mine. Sounds like your dad is in need of some help and/or counseling. Please let someone in the family or someone you can trust know about this. Your dad may be asking for help. |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
