    I won't lie, I'm struggling with this. It's upset me so much to think that melody was so desperate but had no one in RL that she felt she could reach out to for help xx

    Don't beat yourself up, I know how you feel as many others on here feel the same, it is so tragic- she may well have had people in RL with whom she could turn to, but sometimes that's not enough. Mental health issues are hard to comprehend, because you 'look alright' people don't always realise that there is an underlying problem.
    Im not going to dwell, but 14 years ago my DD tried to take her own life and was in itu on life support, she survived with no physical damage but the ongoing years of support we have given is unbelievable, she still has these tendencies, even with all the support from us and friends. Believe it or not she has an appointment with a counsellor tomorrow and she just text me and said ' mum I don't think I can go tomorrow as they make me feel so sad' its heartbreaking and im in tears it has taken 14 years to even get her an appointment, So for poor Melody even if RL and virtual support was there as hard as it is it was her decision and she probably felt there was no where to turn. her turmoil is over. It is just so sad and I feel deeply for this young ladys' family even though I don't know them. x

    so sorry to hear the sad news about Princess Melody. I sent her some coupons for John Frieda from the Tesco Mag a couple of years ago and remember joking should I address them to Princess Melody and how nice it was to help royalty because she PM'd me her address, but not her surname.

    Actually this has left me cold because my intelligent, beautiful DN aged 14 is in hospital at the moment because she can't cope and I fear she has taken after me.
    She doesn't want her Auntie or Grandma to visit her in hospital, but I so want to see her and tell her how much she is loved.
