What can I say to my dad to make him stop thinking of suicide?

Tell him that it’s natural to have feelings of inadequacy during hard times like this. He has thoughts of suicide because he suspects he won’t be able to take care of his family, but if he goes through with it he’s guaranteeing it.

you can say if you kill yourself your goning to hell, or you can say if you love me you wont do it and is you do do it you dont love me!!!

Hug him!

Hope your dad feels better soon. And wins the case. It’s just not far when working class families have to go through all this

Hope this helps:

If you need someone to just listen, just talk to, or pray with you:

Today I was at my friends funeral. she committed suicide at 24. I am left with all these questions.

As her, he is in a stage in life that´s just not easy… I KNOW she would have gotten through it, it just would take some time. She couldn´t handle it… You need to tell your father that this is something he´ll get through. Time´s a healer. He won´t have to deal with it forever. So when all that is over- he can treasure new happy moments, instead of just wasting a lifetime of memories.

Rest in Peace Elisabeth- You will forever stay in my heart

Try to make him feel that he is all You’ve got to look up to… Make him feel wanted…needed…

Make him recall the wonderful moments you guys spent together. Make him realize how wonderful life is with HIM… Make him feel really important. Make him feel that there always is a ray of hope even in the worst of circumstances..and convince him how strong he is to deal with the toughest situations…

Make hm realize how much you love him.

BE STRONG AND FACE LIFE>>>

Your Dad will be in my thoughts and prayers - the economy many be weak, but the Lord’s never be stronger !

tell him that suicide is the worst thing to think about and if he kills him self he will never see you again.
