[quote=Anonymous]OP I wish I could give you a hug, because I'm in a similar boat and sometimes need one myself. My ADHD/GAD/probably autistic 12yo isn't actively suicidal in the sense that they are at risk of imminent self harm, but we also get the "I want to die"/"I wish I weren't alive" comments - in earnest, not theatrical melodrama. I have no idea what might push them over that line, but I'm not willing to risk finding out - and I feel like so many people I try to talk to about this think it's just standard teen angst but it's NOT. And in part because I can't be open about these issues with most people, yes I absolutely feel judged for the choices and sacrifices I make.[/quote]
