Angry, terrified, scared, triggered. My anxious, angry, 13 year old daughter made a suicide attempt in her bedroom whilst I was in the other room. Scared that she attempted this and so triggered because my sister made multiple suicide attempts and then succeeded. Glad that she is alive and that I now know and have told her psychologist. But angry that it could have ended up in her death and my ex H would have caused it because of what he did that I cannot even comprehend how anyone could do that.
She texted her father a message "Goodbye". He phones her back and she is completely upset and unintelligible. He knows she is on antidepressants, he knows she has anxiety, he later told a friend he was really scared about the message. She was actually attempting suicide. Luckily she had not slit her wrists or taken pills it was an attempt to drown herself in a bucket of water. But he phoned her back and she was so upset she was completely unintelligible. Yet he did not tell me. I was in the next room. If she had slit her wrists she would be dead. He knew she could be committing suicide from the message and that she was so upset he could not understand what she was saying, and that I was in the house and he could have let her die.
Instead, she decided after the called her, to run away whilst still on the phone to him. He claims he did not know she had run away. I discover that she has gone and I am phoning and texting him trying to find out if he knows where she is. He does not answer or reply until I threaten the Police. He then tells me that she has run away and that she was upset and did not want to speak to me and that she was in a "SAFE HOUSE" and he had promised her he would not tell me where she was. I am begging him to tell me and he refused.
He knew she had sent that message and that she possibly could be suicidal. The next day he informs me he had still been at work and arranged for some friends to pick her up. I had texted those friends to see if they knew where she was. He had told them not to tell me. Assured them that he had already told me that she was safe and they agreed to pick her up. He did not tell me she was safe until I threatened police. And he sent a suicidal girl to stay the night at a friends house and he did not tell them that she had sent that message and could have been suicidal. She was still angry and upset, she could have tried again and they were completely unaware. They could have woken up to a dead girl.
Then he did not even tell me about the message. I found it on her phone and asked her about it when she came home. She was suicidal and he knew about the message and he had no intention of telling me so she could get help.
Am I supposed to not be angry? She is alive but I am angry
