Is it normal i can't get over a suicide of a girl who i never met but tried to save?
There was a 15 year old girl on reddit whose mother told her on her deathbed she was not her father's biological child. Reddit gave her the brilliant advice to tell him. She did, and he rejected her and kicked her out. CPS made him take her back in until she was 18. Her "father's" family completely rejected her and she had no one. A bunch of us tried to keep her alive. Another woman and I said we would foster her, but she rejected it (I get it though, at 15 it's not smart to move in with an internet stranger). She posted on the suicide forums and people were jerks to her there. She ended up gathering all her "father's" pills and downing them with alcohol.
I can't get over it. My brother and uncle shot themselves both in 2018 and I'm still grieving over that. I've attempted several times myself, I have BPD as well, but it's managed. I can't forgive myself for not saving her. I know I'm too attached. But it's just another horrible situation with a horrific outcome I was powerless in. If he didn't want her I would have taken her. I can't leave people in need with no one. I'm only 25 but I know how to enroll people in school and therapy. I understand having parents who abandon you. But she rejected all of us. Her last message was "Goodbye". I kept messaging her, hoping for a response. But she's gone, and I'm filled with rage at the people who were awful to her on the suicide watch forums. At that point we still had a chance, but they all were awful and made her hate life even more. I swear there is an epidemic of sociopaths out there, it makes me borderline homicidal.
