Discussion Mother thinks daughters suicide attempts were for attention

[15dec]

Sending you a cuddle @SiArc, my mother visited me in a Psychiatric hospital when I was 19 after being transferred from time in intensive care and asked, "how could I do that to her, how could I be so selfish?"

We both got the best mothers... Love you xxxxx

Oh she sounds like a gem. Why do people always think it is about them, how could we do it to them. It is about us, the individual. Bloody hell.

Much love back, feeling the cuddles.

This reminds me of when I came out of hospital after one of my attempts and my dad yelled at me about how he'd "done everything for me" and "always treated me like an adult" and that I turned around and tried to kill myself and betrayed his trust, or something. Then he went back to pretending I was fine and didn't need help and got angry whenever I asked to try and recover. Sigh, some people.

"done everything for me" and "always treated me like an adult"

That already says a lot, and it isn't good.

If the daughter ends up successfully ctb, the mom will go, "why didn't she ask for help?" Or if she cuts her mom off, her mom will play the victim.

Very very true

i've never understood when people claim that others act out for attention, and that you shouldn't pay them any mind. wanting attention is so very human, and sometimes it's a cry for help. maybe we have a suicide epidemic because we dismiss others for "wanting attention" instead of...idk...giving them attention? because we all deserve attention? and there's nothing wrong with it?

Her mom probably made her want to commit suicide.

I feel the same now that you mention it.

What do you guys think of this?

Oh my freaking god!!!! What a fucking witch! She has no idea who her daughter is, why she tried to commit suicide and I doubt she even cares! If my child just tried to kill themselves and they were in the hospital, NOTHING could keep me from seeing them, NOTHING!!! She doesn't deserve to be a mother.

She even looks like a witch.

Ya, when you're unsuccessful, you're just "acting out" and should be ignored.
But if you ARE successful, then it's "how could they do this, why didn't they ask for help!"
So it's a no win.

Exactly as I thought, especially the looking part.

Lol, a well deserved missing kidney.
