Sorry this might be a bit muddled. I’m in difficult situation with my life, I’m a single parent, my disabled child hurts me everyday, he’s a lot bigger than me. I am scared of him, I think one day he is going to seriously injure or kill me. I also have PTSD, it’s a horrible combination. I give everything to him so that he will be ok, I love him so much. But there’s nothing left for me, and nothing left of me.
He’s not in school atm, it’s been months. we have a sw and Camh involvement, they all say the right things and are sympathetic. Things will get better in time apparently.
I wrote my own suicide note last week, I am so deeply miserable. I feel like I have no options but to end my life or to run away.
I don’t know what else to do, as much as I say how difficult things are no one really seems to hear me.

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources: https://www.mumsnet.com/webguide/mental-health. You can also visit the Samaritans website at www.samaritans.org or email them on [email protected].

Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.

We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.

We hope things improve for you soon, OP.
