Please help me this is Bridget and the gang and we are very scared and think that we are dying and keep hearing my dads voice in our head telling us to kill ourselves please help I feel like I have to kill myself

(((((((((Bridget and the Gang)))))))))
Your Dad's voice is inside your head, right?
It's not outside your head?
So it's not going to physically hurt you?
So if I sing to you :) , or talk to you (I wish I could instead of writing), would that help? :?
Why do you think that voice is saying those things?
Bridget and Bloopsy and Firestorm and all the others, they don't want to die do they? Can they have their voices and their choices too please?
Bridget: can you leave a message for your therapist right now, to call you urgently? When did you last see your therapist?......?
We don't want you to die B, we want you to live. I want you to live...
love love love hugs hugs hugs love love love

I think my dad is mad at me because I told.
-
telling wasn't bad or wrong:
telling was good.
When someone is sick, like your Dad, it helps to tell on them. How?
Because they might just get help for their sickness, and/or it might help others not get hurt by them. But most of all it helps you to tell the truth.
Not everyone likes the truth (your Dad) but that's tough for them. Tough! :x
You have as much right to exist as anyone else. Sometimes we all have to fight to exist and live. It doesn't mean we're bad: it means other people have maybe made us feel bad.
But just because they made us feel this way - doesn't mean we have to accept that. So, in a way, we're fighting ourselves (the bad Dad in our heads).
Please B - don't be scared of the Bad Dad in your head. He can't hurt you there unless you let him. Please don't let him. You can do it. You can stand up for yourself (I've seen you do it before :) ).
Who did you tell and what happened? I hope they believed you. I hope someone listened to you and understood just how wrong your Dad was. Did they? (sorry :oops: i can't remember if you told us...)

Hi Bridget and the gang,
If you are feeling suicidal, please contact your therapist (if you have one), or go to your local emergency room, or call a suicide prevention center/hotline. There are other "voices" that care. We want you to live!
Best wishes,
Richard

Hi again Bridget, I used the wrong emoticon earlier when I said how about I sing to you :) ? It should have been a :shock: , coz you wouldn’t want me singing, I promise.
Like Dr G says, why don’t you get help right now. Call one of the phone numbers if you can’t get hold of your therapist. You need and deserve help and there are 'live' people who care. We care too, but we can only write. You and the gang deserve more. Yes you do :D
-
Please go to an emergency room. If you feel actively suicidal and you do not trust yourself, please put yourself somewhere safe. And please understand that it is not because we don't care that we tell you this, but because we care.
Be safe.

I have a book called 'How I survived when my brain was trying to kill me'.
Just the title of that book is helpful- a reminder that these are emotions and chemical imbalanced, and they will pass or can be treated.
Get yourself help and support now, thinking of you

Hi Bridget and the gang,
I wish your Dad would calm down and not be so extreme. Even though you told, it will not kill anyone. Your Dad will be okay, no one is going to kill him. I hope you have called your therapist. Did you notice that Richard Grossman posted to you? That's pretty nifty.
Stay alive, we like you!

Hi Bridget and the gang,
Stay alive, we like you!
You have many many friends here, Bridget, and I know that sometimes you are not able to post, but only able to read. Be assured that you are thought of with lots of compassion, and that you are in my prayers.
I hope you have managed to see a doctor today, and that you are being properly cared for, as you deserve. You are too special for us to lose. (((((hugs)))))

Bridget, I was praying for you this morning on the way in to work. I'm sorry you are having such a very hard time today. This will pass and things will be better. You brain just won't let you feel it right now. Hang in there. I look forward to the day when you feel better and can post more.
-
Hiya Bridget, hope you called your T or someone else to talk to. Still thinking about you and the gang and sending you love and hugs. (((((((((Bridget)))))))))

Thank you guys for all your prayers. I think everything is alrightt. Just needing to decide on a schedule and way of maintaining life?? What? That it is that we are not going to die is hard to take??? I admit to confusion about that. I was wondering if anybody could help me come to terms with the fact that I really don't think I can take care of my cat anymore. She is in the vet today and I know that it sounds heartless but I feel like it is better for me not to worry over my cat right now. I admit that I want to give her away because I want t her to have a good home and life and I don't feel like I can provide for her and for me and my kids at the same time. I don't know if this makes me N or just realistic, a long time ago I had the instinct to ask my sister to take care of her for me til I get back on my feet because I am so overwhelmed. I dont fee like I have ther balance to take care of me and my girls and also provide for a cat. Thank you for being there I am sorry if this note doesn't convey enough gratitude. Today I ate a McDonalds a granola bar and a nutrient shake. Maybe I can have some water and a peice of something else. I feel like I have to pretend I am not eating and am not here. It is hard to do that. I can;'t take care of my cat. I love you guys. It is kind of scary because a voice inside me says I just want to sie alone. Hi. Myabe that means I should keep my cat and try to go against the voices and to life. I love my cat as much as anything else in this life I have ever had. I am sorry kitty you are at the ver t I love my badby,Love the gand of four plus a little Big Bridget tosay of all things is ok. Love

I am sorry for that last note idf it was a bad thing to write. Hi. Love Band the gang

Hi Bridget and the rest of the gang!
Hey, it is all right if you give your cat to a nice home. You are not bad for wanting to give her the best care. Right now someone else may be a better caregiver. That is OK!! Your friends here will still like you.

Hi all:
Hey another idea! Maybe just a temporary home, for awhile, until you are feeling better? Maybe your sister would consider helping you out?

Hi Big Bridget and gang!
It must be hard for you to think about giving up your cat. I know how much my cat helps me feel better. Like others have said, can you find someone to help you take care of your cat at your place or theirs where you could still your cat when you wanted? You always need to take care of yourself first. I'm glad to hear that you were able to eat a little more.
I think the note was a good thing to write, to let us know how you are doing and give us a chance to love and support you. I'm still praying for you.
