I cant tell if my mom is suicidal.she is on oxycotin and they our now taking her off becuz she took 2 entire bottles and almost died.they say she didnt no what she was doing bcuz of anoda drug(my mom is and ill woman)but i think she was in the right mind since i had talked to her minutes before she took the drug.I went to bed and wook to find my grandparents taking her to the hospital and the pumped her stomach.About half an hour ago i started getting curious so i searched the play room where she spends most of her time and found a plastic bug with a prescription drug in it..I searched the web and found the name of the drug(Taztia).So now i am even more worried.
And before this she called me and my brother out to the playroom at 1 in the morn to tell us she loved us.happened(we did not no what she had done at the time)but idk if she was truly in the right mind,She wanted me to wake my father so he could lay by her in the playroom but change her mind.
I am going insane so plz help me.

There is no reason on God's green earth that a child your age should be stressing and watchdogging over your mother this way, especially if there is another adult in the house. I think it is time to confide your fears to another adult, be it your grandparents, a trusted teacher or a school counselor.
Your mother's over-dose could have been an accident, such as she took a pill and was so groggy, she forgot she took it, but in the event that she has formed some type of dependency or is suicidal, talk to someone that may be able to make her look past herself and see what she is doing to you and your brother both. I am sure she has no intentions of stressing you out this badly, but sometimes when a person is in pain, be it physical or mental, they cannot see past themselves. If your father is afraid to make her open her eyes, maybe someone else should try and make her before you end up a nervous wreak!
Hang in there hunny and go talk to someone about your thoughts and your fears! I am always here somewhere if you need an ear, I got 4 daughters so I think I do fairly well at listening at least!

Wow, you mentioned your father is still living with you all. I wonder why he isn't being more aggressive about your mother's care. I think that you are a terrific person for trying to help your mom. Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do at twelve years of age. Ask your grandparents and dad to assist in whatever way they can. I am sure it will work itself out eventually. Just have faith.

i'm sorry you're so frightened and worried.
if you are living in this sort of situation and with someone who is ill and suicidal, you really need some good help for yourself. do you have a school guidance counselor? perhaps talk to him or her? if not, what about a teacher you respect and trust or the principal of your school?
hon, there is HELP out there and if you are scared to ask your father for help, then turn to someone else who might be able to help you talk with him.
hugs

I'm surprised your father hasn't been more aggressive with her acting suicidal. If you truly cared about your mom, you'd tell her to stop this nonsense and take her to the hospital before she really hurts herself next time.
Good luck.

Talk to your grandparents about it. Tell them exactly what happened tell them everything. Express your concern to them and tell them you want them to help you to get help for your mom.
