please pray for me my 16 yr old daughter whants to convince her father im crazy and put me away ;im so upset over it ;
 
There is WAY more to it than having someone just saying "someone is crazy" to actually getting them committed. City/County and State Psych Ward's beds are actually really hard to come by because of budget cuts and so they do some pretty intense tests and insurance has to accept it before they even consider it. Often times there is even a waiting list. If your daughter does convince her father that you need some sort of assistance then you can use that to your advantage by taking the opportunity to talk with someone about the unhealthy situation you obviously are currently living with and stategies of how to deal with it on a day-to-day basis and ways in which you can change your behavior to make things better. There may be other resources or options for you out there that you are not aware of or support groups that may be able to meet some of your needs in ways that you haven't thought of before. These trained specialists, know these resources and have ways of getting you connected. So it may not be a bad thing to be willing to take some help, since it sounds like there is a whole lot more going on in the family core than just normal teenage anger, if she is making these extreme threats.
 
Praying for you Shirley. 16 year old daughter? OH don't ya just love the drama. Don't worry the drama will pass.
Just for laughs. Tell Your daughter that you went to the counselor and got checked out. They found you to be OK but they are very interested in meeting her.
 
I think all my kids at age 16 thought I was crazy...so I'm sure that everyone will take this with a grain of salt.
Play worship music...it will help keep your thoughts grounded :)


Shirley,

I Pray that God guards your heart and mind in Jesus :)
Love in Jesus, Shekaniah
 
You know Shirley I want you to think about this ok? As a child of God he moves in our lives BIG in ways that he just doesn't move in the lost. Where we see Him oh so clearly they .....can't. I know that so many people think I'm like OUT THERE with my faith to the point of where they think I'm nuts. Do you know what I do? I grin at them and I know inside of my heart that they have no idea what the Lord has shown me or how he has changed me or even what He really truly is to us. Your daughter is crazy with emotions right now at 16 and they say really mean stuff ( I have a 18 yr old daughter) Shirley you lay that hurt at the feet of my Jesus and you rebuke that devil ok? I am sorry for the hurt that you feel. My own mate has mentioned having me locked up because of my faith and for believing the way that I do and I just laugh at him and tell him sorry your blind but you don't have to be.
God bless you sweetheart and you lay that hurt at the feet of our Jesus and he will heal your heart of it. Love love love so much love and peace do I bless you with to come your way from our Lord Jesus.
 
Hugs Shirley, praying in Jesus for you and your daughter.

God bless
