I tried to kill myself. I had to sit somewhere different because I felt like if I sat in the same place I had every other time I had come to group I would again sit silently through the whole session. XXX It was at that moment that the emotion of it all came out and I broke down as hard as I ever have. I wasn’t ready to return to school the next day so I stayed home and had my mom call in sick for me. . . This seemed to surprise him and he asked me if I felt I was benefitting from it. She stroked my hair and told me okay and my dad agreed to drive me.
