Sweetie don’t contemplate suicide- your worth is far too precious

Sweetheart, your short but direct posting made my heart ache. I can’t imagine the emotional distress you must go through. Like Sister Fatima said, had there been more details- the advice could have been more specific. But like her, I will speak in general:

I hope you have someone you can reach out to- a friend, a mentor and if not- we are here for you. Don’t let your mother’s problem become your declining force. You are brave for seeking help….and I am very, very glad you came to this website. The sister/counselor on here is a wonderful source of assistance.

Until we hear more from you….let me just tell you, your mother must be in a far worse place in her life to treat her own child in such a way. I have two daughters…there have been times when life, stress, pressures has made me scream at them in a way which I sincerely regret later and the guilt takes away my sleep that I took advantage of my child’s innocence and scream to release my stress at the wrong direction. Sometimes the guilt grows along with the stress in life and it makes one very mentally unstable or emotionally disturbed. It happens to a lot of mothers…but they need someone to tell them to stop. And in your case, we can all help you find that person to make her stop.

Sweetie don’t contemplate suicide- your worth is far too precious. Not every child could deal with what you deal with…and insha Allah it will come to an end in terms of abuse. Think positively and I am very proud of you for taking the first time towards positivity by seeking help.

Your mother needs help- emotional, professional or maybe even spiritual guidance. May Allah guide her to the right path. and remember, we are always here for you. Stay strong!
