• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

My dad could live 5 more minutes, or up to 2 days... He is dying a slow painful death, and I'll be honest I just want him to die, its been like this for a week today. It's so hard watching him like this. Is it wrong for me to want him to die? (Brain hemorrhage, fluid in lungs, muscle death, several infections)

i felt the same when my mom died. i too prayed God would take her sooner than He did, but it was His timing, not mine. He kept her around one grueling month (for both of us) but as i reflect back, that month gave me a chance to give my mom the lifetime of love she never got from me.

my mom too wanted to die. she was ready... i made sure she was ready too, spiritually.
