Does your family know about your will to die?

[sadlyexisting]

I am just curious, since no one in my family knows about my struggles.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

They do but they don't think it's serious enough to take action and that's just how I want it to be.

 

[strangelife]

I've never been suicidal, they know I feel bad, I told them that I would prefer to die then to live like this. But they think it's not serious.

 

[luneylonegirl]

They know. I've been failed 3 attempts. But this time, they think i'm healed! Wow, healed. They also know i survived toxic relationship and being abused by my ex. They don't know about my plan this time.

 

[theboy]

Yes

 

[EvisceratedJester]

They don't know about any of my other attempts besides one from around over 5 years ago, so no. To them I'm doing great mentally and love being alive.

 

[Raven_Nevermore]

Although I've made multiple suicide attempts since my teens, they DON'T want to see, hear or know. One time when I took an overdose at school, my dad told the school nurse " She does this when she doesn't get her way." Instead of being concerned about me and showing me love and support, he gets pissed off because I make him look bad.

 

[divinemistress36]

Yes, but I've talked about it for so many years that I don't think they take it serious anymore . I try to prepare them for it happening one day but they won't listen

what a ***
Yeah they have been aware, some ignore it I think... fantasise there's some other problem... or think it's merely 'focusing on negativity' rather than being objective about reality.

They aren't there for me, they did know... they could know more... people in my life just are a bit lacking in emotional substance (they are surface people).

I'm so sorry . Everyone deserves parental love and support

 

[MyChoiceAlone]

i blurted it out once i think in a stupor. but dad and i are so old it doesn't really matter. i remember him taking away some blood soaked items to toss out. never spoke of it again.

 

[SillyGirl>_<]

No, they don't know they will never know until I finally CTB. I just don't want them to think they could have "saved" me. I'm not sure if it's the right decision but i'd rather have it be a surprise.

 

[ijustwishtodie]

No, they don't know. Why would I tell them when all telling them would do is restrict my already negligible chances of ctbing even further whilst simultaneously having to deal with bullshit pro life sentiments all day. I'll never let them know about my desire to ctb until I'm dead

 

[LifeIsCrazyNemb]

They suspect something is wrong. My mother is calling me more frequently than usual.

5 years ago i was regarded something like a "golden boy" and as a sucesfull one... and now im in this fucked up situation. Thats fucking sad for my family.

 

[lita-lassi]

ive told my sister somewhat but i dont think shes aware how severe it still is. i cant tell anyone else in my family any of my feelings at all without getting the reaction of it just making them uncomfortable and like theyd rather just not hear it. every time ive tried, i get treated like im a crazy person whos overreacting and just needs to "move on". but they wont help me with the "how". so, no. theyre really not.

 

[FuneralCry]

My wish to die is just my personal feelings towards existence, I don't see why it would be anybody else's business, and it isn't like being open about it will mean that peaceful, reliable ways to die like Nembutal become available.

 

[dggtscccvfd]

My family are aware of my desire to CTB. They are tolerant to the extreme. They even know of my secret stash of SN. Fortunately, my mum, in particular, is in favour of euthanasia, so she is comfortable with the SN.

 

[tbroken]

They do but they don't think it's serious enough to take action and that's just how I want it to be.

Same here.

 

[Final_Choice]

No, they've seen signs which momentarily worried them but all they did was shove religion down my throat and told me to go to church more, which honestly did more harm than good for me, so I refuse to tell them anything more.

 

[Unknown21]

They know that I'm passive suicidal an wanna die, but no one knows about my active suicidality and that I'll do it inevitably.

 

[Arachno]

Nope and I want to keep it that way. They probably think I'm just fine and have plans for the future.

 

[Ambivalent1]

I'm very open and also about what I've done to improve. They will not be able to say they had no idea and that I shouldve just tried harder.
