*TW* Dd has gone missing

PigeonPie1 · 14/03/2022 14:16

My DD is in her 20s and has learning difficulties along with mental health issues. Her mental health has been gradually getting worse over the last 6 months. Resulting in several visits to A&E (usually after self harming or becoming very distressed and threatning to end her life). Where they talk to her and then send her home again once she has calmed down... Brew

This deterioration started following a traumatic event linked to her past but I don't want to go into details because it's very outing. Needless to say it has and still is destroying my daughter's mental health Sad

This morning she text me whilst I was at work saying that she was sorry but she couldn't do this any longer and was going away. Don't try to find her etc. I tried calling her but her phone is switched off. Further investigation (speaking to other people) has revealed that Dd received some news this morning that's probably triggered her into crisis again Sad I still can't get hold of her (I've got several family members trying as well). I've called the police and I'm just waiting for them to arrive and take further details.

I'm so worried and scared that she's going to do something stupid SadFlowers I don't know why I'm posting here. I just need a handhold Brew

I'm so sorry you must be worried sick, thinking of you and your daughter. Handhold offer right here 💐

Daisy95 · 14/03/2022 14:21

Just a thought you don't have her on find my friends or if she has Snapchat do any of her friends have her location?
Sorry you've probably thought of it already.

I'm so sorry to hear this, did you post about her over the weekend?

use social media to spread the word about her being missing, with photos and as much info as you can about where she last was etc.

Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Next door - any local groups on facebook?

I'm so sorry to read this OP, sounds very distressing for involved. It's good she messaged you, sounds like she wants help and I hope she is located very soon.

ThreeRingCircus · 14/03/2022 14:30

Are there any Facebook groups/social media you can spread the message and her photo? I'm so sorry OP you must be worried sick.

Hen2018 · 14/03/2022 14:30

Good luck, OP.

I phoned the police when my adult son’s friend left worrying messages and disappeared a couple of years ago. I was surprised just how thorough they were and how many officers were involved.

My son’s friend had gone to a place where they often sat to have a chat (middle of nowhere). Would your daughter have a place like that?

LaraDeSalle · 14/03/2022 14:30

I would get as much social media attention as you can to get sightings. I’ve seen Facebook and Twitter put to good use where a casual comment along the lines of someone saying they saw a boy/girl meeting the description in such and such a place and it was the missing person and the sighting helped tremendously.

Raindancer411 · 14/03/2022 14:30

Sending a big big handhold

ladydimitrescu · 14/03/2022 14:32
