[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe you dont mean to come off this way OP, but you sound very dismissive.

"She doesn't want.to be alive but she has no plans to commit suicide" 
" Old therapist said she wasn't depressed, so she's not" 
"l I'm thinking of barging in to make sure she didn't take a bunch of pills" in an "lol" way.

I just hope you are taking this more seriously than you.appear to be. [/quote]

OP here. I spent the most of the last 24 hours either talking with psychologists/crisis counselor and researching someone to treat her full-time. It is amazing how difficult it is to find resources.

I am taking it seriously but please understand that unless you have been in my shoes, it's hard to understand the surreal nature.

I know something is very wrong. The hard part is assessing whether there is an imminent threat.

And when a licensed clinician tells you your child is NOT depressed, you listen. Doesn't mean something hasn't changed, but it was the last tangible information we had until yesterday happened.[/quote]
