At the least needs to talk with professionals that can help him sort thru what he is going through. You have to be there for him! do not encourage his suicidal thoughts by letting him know you are thinking of it as well. He is going thru a very hard time right now and he needs to feel that someone understands him. Sounds like you 2 have a wonderful relationship- so if you love him then be positive for him. Noone can control your destiny but YOU! Be smart! Talk to your family and/or friends about this- do not feel that you are alone because i assure you - you are not. Remember you always have GOD! He loves you and he will be there for you no matter what! Prayer changes lives!!
Best wishes and please you are way too young to be so sad! Believe me it will get a lot better sometimes you have to go to the deepest depths of sorrows to see the light! But trust me!! The light is ALWAYS there!!! ALWAYS! Take it from someone who has seen A LOT of sorrow! :) [ kchafin's advice column | Ask kchafin A Question ]
BitsandPieces answered Monday November 20 2006, 4:47 pm: He is in a place where he will get help, no matter how scary it seems right now. It is paranoid to think that someone is out to get him, and the doctors have his best interest in mind. They want to get him healthy, so that he can get out and have a good life, and he will then be able to return to you a stronger man. You need to be strong for him right now, and not give up on either one of you. While he is away getting the help he desperately needs, you should talk to your friends, family, a school counselor or any other person who is safe to talk to about your feelings and get some support while you wait for him. Your boyfriend cares about you, so he would never want you to harm yourself, just like you would never want him to do anything like that either. Feeling lonely is normal at times, and the thing you need to do is talk to people and get involved in your own life. Your life is not going to stop, just because he is at a hospital. If he had a broken bone or needed surgery to save his life, then he would be in a different kind of hospital, but the help he needs is just as important. Say a prayer for him at night, and write him a few letters and send them to his parents to give him from you. Be positive and encouraging in your letters, and let him know you think he is worth the wait and you want him to know that you think of him often and send your love. You are young, but you can be a big influence on him. Stay strong and be brave my dear! [ BitsandPieces's advice column | Ask BitsandPieces A Question ]
LM answered Monday November 20 2006, 4:34 pm: Is there anyway you can talk to his doctors/caretakers at the hospital? I really don't think this kid is insane at all, just traumatized and upset by his parent's divorce & other things. He needs a counselor, not a straitjacket. If you wanna be taken seriously, have an adult who agrees with you come along; they aren't as likely to listen to a 14 year old kid.
As for what else you can do? Make sure he knows you're there for him (when you get the opportunity to see him, go!) and make yourself busy. Pick up a new hobby- beadwork, painting, whatever. Anything to keep your mind off things.
