Sorry, this post is really sad

OMG!!! How awful! I can't imagine how your daughter feels...:(

Your daughter's school may have a counseling or wellness center that can provide support to her. I hope she seeks them out.
 
I'm so sorry for you, your daughter, and her boyfriend. I understand your anger, but he must have really been suffering.

I wish him a safe journey, and you and your daughter comfort and peace. <3
 
I am so very sorry you and your daughter have had to experience this. My Mom took her own life in the same way and I know how hard this is and will be for some time to come. I agree that although your daughter feels guilt for not returning his call she may have saved her own life by doing so. I also understand your anger at her boyfriend for his choice. It's too soon to see past that right now. In time - you may come to an understanding that had her boyfriend been in his right mind he (my Mom or anyone else that takes their own life) would never have done this. I am not condoning or justifying their actions but I don't think anyone really knows the emotional pain somene feels when they reach this point. I know I will never understand it. Keep a close eye on your daughter for her emotions will be all over the place - huge hugs to both of you.
Please PM me if you need to talk/vent as you go through this - I do understand.
 
(((((ParkerCP))))) I'm so sorry you and your family are going through this.

Even more touching was the post by jgar44460. It's wonderful when someone with similar experience offers their help, compassion, understanding. Take them up on their offer, it helps them too. They understand your pain as others possibly can not and want to help you in your journey to accept this loss and grow stronger.
 
I'm so sorry you and your daughter have to go through this, especially this time of year. I will keep you in my thoughts.
 
OMG!
How horrible for your daughter. I can only imagine how traumatic it would be to find someone like that.

Definitely get her into therapy or a support group.
Is she coming home for the holidays? Seems like a time she could use some good family support 'up close and personal.'
 
I'm very sorry about this. I understand the need to vent -- I have had not one, but two horribly sad things like this happen since Thanksgiving. Please do see that your daughter gets some therapy. Good luck.
 
What a devastating experience... I'm so sorry for your daughter. I understand how guilty she must feel, but hopefully she'll get it into perspective soon. People who want to end their lives will end it, no matter what - she is in no way responsible. Hugs and prayers to all who have been wounded in this terrible tragedy...

WOW - OMG! SO sorry to hear about this and that your daughter has to go through this at this time of year.... No real advice here - but wanted to offer {{{{{{HUGS}}}}}
 
Oh, how very sad and traumatic! I can't imagine the emotions your DD will go thru. I hope she will be able to come home for the holidays. I will keep you all in my thoughts & prayers!
 
My heart goes out to your daughter and I hope that she finds someone to help her work through all her feelings. Her boyfriend chose his path and I hope that she can come to accept that it was his choice, and that she need not feel guilt for it. I'll keep you all in my thoughts.
 
I am SO incredibly sorry about all of this. The heartbreak your daughter feels, the heartbreak you feel for her, and so on. Please push the message that anybody out of his mind enough to so strategically make sure she saw him like that was most likely out of his mind enough to hurt her as well (as you already know). I know she won't listen for a long time, but it's bound to sink in eventually.

My heart goes out to all of you.
 
Just sending more ((((((hugs)))))) to you and your DD. I hope she's able to talk to a therapist. She's not responsible in any way--even if she had called him back right away, gone over there and talked him out if it. What about the next day, or next week, or next year? He was mentally ill. I'm just so sorry for the pain he inflicted on your DD and his family. The anguish everyone must be feeling--it's so awful. Take care--
 
wow, i am so sorry.

dh's cousin just killed herself too....she jumped off a bridge in florida.

so sad....what are these young people thinking?:(
 
So sorry

I am so very sorry to hear about this. I'm sending you, your daughter, and his family warmth at this difficult time--especially at this time of year. They will always have this with them during the holidays. So sad.
