Hi

After 10 years of supporting my daughter I have found I really don't know who I can talk to who will understand. She has BPD, depression and anxiety and a addiction to weed. She has had persistent strong suicidal thoughts for past 5 days which she disclosed to me last night. She's 23 and currently in the middle of starting new antidepressant with a psychiatrist. I thought it was a side effect but her psychiatrist (who is not in this town) says on phone call today this is very rare. I can support with self harm, addiction, BPD moods swings and severe clinical depression but this is a whole new level for me - I'm totally thrown and can't settle. She describes her whole being pushing her to end her life and the urge is very strong. Refuses ED and GP at this moment - I'm working on it. The pressure is real....
