Hello, My parents had a fight, bro interrupted and he even slapped dad. I was not present during all this. I managed to separate them for a while. Dad had mental breakdown. He’s saying he’d leave and won’t show his face again. I assume he’d commit suicide from the way he’s talking.I don’t know how to talk to him. I want to patch things up (not as in go back to how we used to be). He’s the only earning member, mom’s not well (physically or mentally), grandparents are sick too. I don’t want him to die. But I know he’s hurt mentally. I think I am also part of the problem. he’s not without fault himself. I’ll go find myself a job. But how do I prevent him from harming himself?
I’m sorry you are going through this. But please don’t blame yourself. Sometimes life just gets too difficult. But I’d suggest go see him try to talk to him but if he doesn’t want to talk just sit there let him know you are there. And find a therapist for him and also for you.
