Suicide threats

[Guest guest]

I made some new boundaries. Told nada that I will call only once a week and

that I would not answer a telephone even if it is urgent because she took

advantage of my concern. . First she tried to get (her usual) attention from

some other people ( NGO group who helps mental ill people) but they are fed up

with her manipulations and lies too and they don't want to talk to her 100 times

a day. She than refused to get professional help and even lied to me that her

psychiatrist said to her it is useless to have so much sessions ( once a week)

She called me this morning (today is a day for our call) and told me she would

make a suicide. With a voice of little " poor " stubborn child. I was worried a

little but I responded very calm. I told her that it is her own life and her own

decisions, I can not help her the way she is demaning from me, I'm living in

other city and I'm not a professional mental health doctor to know how. The

only thing I can do is to call an ambulance.

She (seemly) agreed and I called an ambulance and now I'm waiting what will

happened, if she will allows them into the house or if she really goes to

hospital. You can never know what is truth with her - she might really took the

pills or she might just bluffing. This is her first thread of making suicide.

And I decided I won't go to the hospital today ( if she would really goes

there) but tomorrow. I don't want her to think that this is working - if she

would threat with suicide she would get my attention and I would come. I found

out if I don't respond on her manipulation the first time she try with some form

of it than she stops ...and start searching for other ones who might work out

for her. I'm so sick with being all the time on alert from where it will hit...
