7,801 | daddit | Ask us for anything, one of us will come through. |
7,802 | daddit | Fuck man. Im sorry sounds so cliche but I dont know what else to say |
7,803 | daddit | Brother, I'm so sorry for your loss. Nothing I could possibly say is going to make you feel any better. It's the one thing all of us Dads fear. But we are here to listen, and to try to help you. I wish you the best and I hope you and your family can work through this darkest time. |
7,804 | daddit | Please join a grief counseling group. My brother passed this year and it has helped the parents immensely. I tell you I’ve cried and punched the wall and everything in between. Just don’t hold it in or wait to express your feelings. |
7,805 | daddit | I am so very sorry for your loss. Here for you if there is anything at all I can offer. |
7,806 | daddit | DM if you need anything. I’m here my dude. I’m so sorry this happened. |
7,807 | daddit | Please don’t blame yourself. Mental illness is a disease just like any other, and sometimes it comes in fast and hard. I’m so sorry, man. I can’t even imagine how you feel. |
7,808 | daddit | Sir. I have no words. But if you need a random dad to chat with I’m here for you. Be strong. We are all with you. |
7,809 | daddit | Sorry for your loss. As a father myself I can't imagine. As a one-time depressed teen I am grateful I made it through. Stay strong for your other kids and take it a day at a time. |
7,810 | daddit | I’m so sorry for your loss. |
7,811 | daddit | I’m not crying, i swear |
7,812 | daddit | Keeping you and your family in my thoughts man. My heart is shattered for you. So sorry for your loss. |
7,813 | daddit | Thank you for sharing the tiniest bit of your love for her and how she made your world brighter. You’re living every parents worst nightmare, but I believe you’ll make it, as unfair as it will be to have this tragedy for the rest of your life. I know you want to punish yourself or blame yourself, but I guarantee it’s not your fault. Sometimes a persons depression is just so strong that the body chooses to end the pain. I have a friend who’s husband died by suicide a year ago, and he had a baby boy with one on the way. He loved his family above all else but still couldn’t make it, through no fault of his family not showing him enough love. That’s why we need to think of mental illness like any other physical illness. I hope this helps somehow, and I wish I could embrace you and cry with you over the greatest loss I could imagine. I hope those around you surround you with their love and will be with you on the rest of your journey on this side. May her memory be a blessing to you and all. |
7,814 | daddit | My condolences brother. What comes next isn’t going to be easy. If you ever need to reach out to talk to someone or even just vent, I’m very sure we’re all here for you. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. |
7,815 | daddit | This is heartbreaking. Stay strong for your boys, they need you more than ever. |
7,816 | daddit | Im so sorry for your loss…i have no words but know we are here for you to vent, cry, yell whatever. |
7,817 | daddit | Damn, so sorry to hear that. |
7,818 | daddit | Very sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine the pain you're feeling and am scared to even try. I hope your family is surrounded by people that love yall |
7,819 | daddit | I came here to gush about my beautiful 8 month old daughter sleeping in my arm and this was the first post I saw. I was already crying from the pure love I feel for her but this changes the tears for sure. I am definitely soaking in every sound she makes right now and the warmth of her body. This could happen to any of us. So many don't see it coming. With the intense love we feel, sometimes we also have to feel intense pain. I am so sorry. I wish I could give you a hug. Hell, I'd hold you while you cry and cry with you. I hope you have someone near you that will let you do that. This reminds us all to love our children even deeper and obsess over every second. We're all so lucky to have with them in our lives. |
7,820 | daddit | I’m so sorry. Having your baby girl taken away must hurt so much. Reach out if needed. |
7,821 | daddit | You’re expected to be the rock for your family through any conceivable hardship, but nobody ever asks about if you have or need a rock. Please allow yourself to lean on a rock whether it’s your family, a professional, or even the other dads in this sub. Not many will know firsthand what you’re going through, but god damn do you have a community full of empathy here. Sending some healing energy your way. |
7,822 | daddit | I'm so sorry for your loss. My Dad's sister took her own life when she was 18. It leaves a wound in the family forever, but does not undo the love everyone felt for her. I'm so, so sorry for your loss. |
7,823 | daddit | Dude I am so sorry to hear this. I will pray for you and your family. And I will pray that you and your family find peace and strength. |
7,824 | daddit | You love her and she knew it. There’s no doubt she knew she was loved. I’m sorry her pain took her from you and I wish you and your family a path towards whatever healing your future holds. I salute you, brother. |
7,825 | daddit | My heart just aches for you. She looks so beautiful in that photo. It’s a parent’s biggest fear. I will say a prayer and consider yourself hugged. |
7,826 | daddit | OP I am so sorry for your loss and cannot even imagine what you are going through. Despite what led to this, know deep down she knew you loved her and she loved you. She may not be with you all physically anymore but can live on with you all through memories. Be sure to share these with your younger children, so she can continue to live on through them. This will be one of the toughest things you will have to deal with but focus on the great times. Holding her when she was born, bringing her home and seeing her grow into the woman she was. Suicide can take her away but it can’t take away the memories. Stay strong dad, we are all with you and support you. Sending you all the love from |
7,827 | daddit | You've been through a lot, and I'm sure you've had a ton of outreach, but if you need someone else to talk to, DM me. We're all dad's. We all support each other. |
7,828 | daddit | Prayers to you man. |
7,829 | daddit | Anytime anywhere brother. Whatever you need. |
7,830 | daddit | I can’t even imagine the pain and grief you’re going through. But know that all of us who are fathers are here with you, feeling the love for our kids. Sorry for the loss of your beautiful child. |
7,831 | daddit | Hey Dad, This post is old enough now I wonder if the numbness is wearing off and the exhaustion and grief are really setting in. You and your boys are going to make it through this. Your daughter is beautiful and she is not going to be forgotten. I love you brother. I ache for you. |
7,832 | daddit | Much love your way brother |
7,833 | daddit | I wish I had something better to say than I’m sorry. But I’m really sorry. Love you, dude. |
7,834 | daddit | I am so sorry, brother. We are here for you. You just tell us what you need. |
7,835 | daddit | Rip |
7,836 | daddit | So, so sorry for your loss. |
7,837 | daddit | Sending so much love to you bro |
7,838 | daddit | Sending love across the internet man. There's nothing I can say that would be helpful, but put my name in the lineup of the thousands of people who are here if you want to talk. |
7,839 | daddit | I am here for you as well. I have 3 littles and it is probably daily that I wonder whether the way I respond to things is the right thing or whether I have failed them in some way. Parenting is hard. Full stop. But you have people only a message away. You can reach out anytime. |
7,840 | daddit | Sending prayers and positive vibes brother!! |
7,841 | daddit | Man, I’m really really sorry for your loss. I know at this time nothing can probably make you feel better and I know what your going through must be confusing, scary, and just an overwhelming amount of feelings… I hope you find the guidance that will help you continue moving on in life… keep your sons close, keep your mental health good, and I hope you and your family can overcome this grief and loss. Sorry about your daughter , she was beautiful |
7,842 | daddit | I can imagine the pain you’re in. I hope it’s all I ever have to do and I’m so sorry this happened. I’m just so sorry that this happened. |
7,843 | daddit | My heart breaks for you amigo. Truly the worst thing a father can experience. Sending what little internet love I can. |
7,844 | daddit | Much love and many prayers. I can't imagine... hugs, man. |
7,845 | daddit | Im so sorry for your loss man. Keep your head up. Your family needs you most right now. |
7,846 | daddit | I am deeply sorry for your loss u/speaksoftly_bigstick I know this will do nothing for you right now. These are just words of wisdom I heard along my ride. When we miss those we have lost, especially the ones gone too early. Remember that they no longer have to suffer. Whatever their alignment, they no longer are in pain. Your daughter obviously was suffering deep inside and didn’t know how to let it out - how to ask for help. She found her solution and it seemed the most reasonable. While it will burn for many years to come, but I hope you find solace in knowing she isn’t hurting anymore. Truly, my deepest heart and soul felt condolences to you, her mother, and her siblings. |
7,847 | daddit | I’m in the mental health field if you ever need anything please let me know. |
7,848 | daddit | I lost my mom early, at the age of 8. I can tell you that you never stop missing those you love when they’re gone. However, I find comfort in knowing that she’s always everywhere around me. We’re all beautiful combinations of carbon, and try as we might, even when we want to be alone, we’re always connected. I try to live my life in a way that would make her proud of the man I’ve become, and at the age of 36, I believe that if she saw me now she would love the man I am today. If you need anything OP… We’re all here for you. |
7,849 | daddit | I love you bro, your family loves you and most of all your daughter loves you. Death isn’t the end. We’re all here for you. |
7,850 | daddit | I’m sorry for your loss. I’ll be praying for you and your family. |
7,851 | daddit | Every parents worst nightmare. I’m so sorry. I have tears in my eyes as I write this, I cannot even fathom your pain. I just don’t know what to say. Stay busy. When we go through trauma, alone time with our thoughts is our worst enemy. I’m not a religious person but I’m gonna say a prayer for you in hopes that your heart will be healed even just a tiny bit. If you need anything please reach out. Always remember you’re not alone. |
7,852 | daddit | Fuck man. I'm in tears right now for you. I believe people die 3 times. First, when their body stops, second when people don't remember who they are and finally when their impact on the world stops. Your daughter passed the first step way too young. You now bear a tough tough task, fighting away steps 2 and 3. Speak her name, talk about the good, the bad and everything in between. And bring the good she did to the world forward for everyone to see. I for one would love to hear a good story. Maybe use thoughts of her to help improve the world around me. Remindme! 1 year. |
7,853 | daddit | I’m so sorry for your loss. Please know that she’ll always always be with you. And you’ve got all of us here if you ever need extra comfort or someone to talk to. |
7,854 | daddit | We love you man. Stay strong for your boys |
7,855 | daddit | Fuck. I'm so so sorry man. Don't know what else to say |
7,856 | daddit | She is beautiful. This was not your fault and I'm so sorry. |
7,857 | daddit | Hope you're holding together man, it'll never be ok but you'll love her every day you're here |
7,858 | daddit | Can’t possibly imagine what you’re going through. I know it won’t be easy but I hope that you can be kind to yourself, I hope you can be happy again soon. Sending you all the love |
7,859 | daddit | No words, my friend. Sending all the love I have to give. |
7,860 | daddit | She was beautiful and I am so sorry for your loss. I lost two brothers in this way and I just feel so sad for you right now. The coming weeks will be blurry likely and full of some really hard moments. Ones you won’t ever forget or get over. I am just so sorry. |
7,861 | daddit | I just read this as I’m cuddling my baby girl to sleep, and I’m crying. I’m so sorry man. Nothing we can say will numb the pain. You love her, and that’s all you can do. |
7,862 | daddit | I’m so sorry for your loss. |
7,863 | daddit | Sending your family thoughts of love and support from (probably) halfway around the world. I'm so sorry for your loss. |
7,864 | daddit | I’m not a dad, and hell I am not a mother- I don’t have any kids yet. BUT I have lost someone very dear to me to suicide. So, while I may not relate to the pain of losing a child, I can at least share the sadness with you of losing a loved one to suicide. Please don’t hesitate to send me a DM if you need anything at all. |
7,865 | daddit | So sorry and condolences to your family. I can’t imagine what you are going through. Reading through comments, it looks like you have a good support network in place to help with your sons. You guys all will need therapy to work through this, and together you will get through it. So many people here are giving great advice. You have an audience, and you have reached us all. Many of us have felt your raw pain, and have shed some tears with you. Let us help you through this. You did not fail her. She lost her battle with depression, and you sharing her story lets more people know this is a serious affliction with devastating consequences. |
7,866 | daddit | Here for you and your family. |
7,867 | daddit | I can’t imagine man… I’m sry.. I’m a father of two girls… there are no words in any language on earth to describe how that must feel. But god bless you. Time does make things a bit easier. |
7,868 | daddit | You didn’t fail her my brother. We will never understand. You are not alone in this fight though. Stay strong |
7,869 | daddit | Your 4 year old may benefit from a book called The Invisible String, its about how we're always connected to those who have passed. I think it's a nice visualisation you can discuss with him. Lots of love and strength over the coming weeks. |
7,870 | daddit | If you're in SoCal area lmk. I'll shoot you a visit to have someone to talk with or lend my ears if you want to vent out. Stay strong brother! |
7,871 | daddit | So sorry for your loss OP. |
7,872 | daddit | My heart breaks for you and yours! I do not believe you failed her in any way! The look on her face in the picture make me feel like she felt loved, and safe! Take care of each other in this horrible situation! |
7,873 | daddit | Sorry for your loss buddy. Praying for you, your family and for your daughter. |
7,874 | daddit | Thoughts with you |
7,875 | daddit | this breaks my heart. i'm so sorry. seeing her beautiful smile on your pic made me clutch my heart thinking about my daughters. i lost my mother when i was not that old. all i can say is that talking about it (with whomever) always helps. big hug |
7,876 | daddit | I was suicidal as a teen and eventually went to a high school specifically for kids with mental health issues. It’s always a combination of many factors, and almost never simply a parent’s failing. Please take that off your shoulders ASAP. Depression and anxiety run in both sides of my daughter’s family, but she is still a baby. I’m not going to be shocked if she winds up having issues we all have to navigate together. As a new dad, your post breaks my heart. As someone who has had a lot of suicidal ideation in his life, your post breaks my heart and just makes me feel for your daughter whose reasons might never make sense to the rest of us, though they may have been so clear to her. I’ll just be another person offering open DMs if you need to vent, possibly with someone who has a lot of experience with “troubled teens” |
7,877 | daddit | I created a new update post, but it might have been automoderated? I'm not sure, reddit is acting weird this morning. https://www.reddit.com/r/daddit/comments/118zig7/my_daughter_killed_herself_update/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button |
7,878 | daddit | I am so so sorry for your devastating loss. I can’t imagine how you must be feeling. Please know that me and so many others here are thinking of you and your beautiful daughter. |
7,879 | daddit | Dad of one here, and my son is my everything. Here to show support. |
7,880 | daddit | Oh man.. I know this won't make you feel any better but I'm so so sorry to hear that man.. But please remember, all of us dads are here for you! Stay strong brother |
7,881 | daddit | I can't add anything to this, I just...I can't even imagine. ​ Love to you, Dad. I hope you're able to heal. |
7,882 | daddit | I missed this on the first post, but I'm here too. Send a DM if you need to. My love to you and your family. |
7,883 | daddit | My deepest condolences. Not much else to say, but please reach out if you need anything. |
7,884 | daddit | I'm so sorry that you and your family have to go through this. |
7,885 | daddit | Bless you and yours brother. I can't possibly imagine the pain and hurt you're going through Please know if you need a safe space to talk and vent, my chats are 100% open. Sending hugs and love. May she rest in Paradise. |
7,886 | daddit | Fuck. |
7,887 | daddit | Damn man sorry for the lost |
7,888 | daddit | [deleted] |
7,889 | daddit | Aw man this made me cry. *Circle the wagons* But my dude, she's already gone. |
7,890 | daddit | Absolutely. I am so, so sorry for your loss u/speaKsoftly_bigstick |
7,891 | daddit | I am not even a dad but I am here for you OP. |
7,892 | daddit | I was coming here to say this. I can not imagine how you're feeling but know there is a huge group of people here for you. |
7,893 | daddit | You put it so well. Sending good thoughts to you and to OP. |
7,894 | daddit | +1. hell im not even a dad (was about to become one to twins and there were complications and went through hell for that) but still lurk here. |
7,895 | daddit | So spot on. Full disclosure: I may very well be a blithering, snotty mess for such a conversation, but I’ll still listen. OP I’m not sure how you’re able to function at all. |
7,896 | daddit | Seriously man, this makes me weep |
7,897 | daddit | Hell ya we are here to talk. You aren’t alone no matter how alone you feel. |
7,898 | daddit | Absolutely. Feel free to reach out as often as needed. So sorry you’re going through this. |
7,899 | daddit | I can definitely second this. |
7,900 | daddit | I'm in as well. I lost my older sister, my lifelong friend, in Oct of 2021. I can't even imagine what it's like losing a daughter. OP, it's going to keep coming back and hitting you. Don't be ashamed of it. Let whatever feelings happen, no matter where you are. I've found that the average person is compassionate and eager to help one who needs it. |
