Going to be with Emily

...See more Hello my name is Sally. I've not been on 7 cups for very long and haven't really said much in the time that I've been here. I wasn't being rude, its been great talking to some you but I wasn't really sure how to get support and ask for it in the 24hr support room. I came here because I am in bad depression since my 5 year old daughter - Emily - passed away last August. She had autism and she suffered a seized that killed her. I should have been in the room with her but I'd gone out to finish making cakes which took about 5-7 minutes and when I returned to her she was lying on her bedroom floor dead. I think a lot about her in those final moments and how scared she must have been. Emily probably wanted her mum and I wasn't there for her. Had I still been in there when that had happened she would still be alive today. Its been almost a year and the guilt of losing Emily is killing me. My depression has got worse and I don't ever see that getting any better. How can I take away the pain and guilt of letting Emily down and costing her her life? Right now Emily is in Heaven and she'll be wanting her mummy. I have nothing in my life to live for anymore, no family, no friends and since Emily's death I have no children. The way I look at it is this, Emily missed out on her life and she deserved to live a full and happy life. (Edited by forum mentor @Mel, for triggering content. Please if you're in risk call the hotlines to get appropriated help. We highly value you but we sadly aren't prepared to help in crisis). Many likely believe this to be a selfish act but I disagree. I am unhappy so why not just go away to be with Emily again. I want to say thanks for all your help everyone. I didn't talk to many but I did speak to Pap, Hurt, Lilme and of course CommunityModJennie, Anne and Taylor. Love you all💛

...See more Hi, I'm Sally. I need a lot of help mentally and I'm scared because I'm not sure if I'm strong enough to get through this. I think of death so much and I'm just so scared of what's going to happen. I wanted to come here to seek help and to help others if they need it.
