[CW suicide] How to help suicidal family member
(sh.itjust.works)
It's never a child's duty to parent their parents. It's sad for your dad and you should definitely be there to support him, but you can't be held responsible for anything he does.
I kind of know what I'm talking about, my own father took his life when I was 15. Took me many years of therapy to accept...
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.
