OK so heres my story. My auntie is a huge slag and i'm not just insulting her here i mean she is a slag. She will shag anybody. She beat my nanna up before and some of her girlfriends and boyfriends. She has two kids, my cousins, Stacey and Bethany, now stacey is more my age, shes about 14 and beths 12. my uncle (stace and beths dad) split up with betty(My auntie) ages ago but neither of them really care for the kids and as soon as they get bored with having them they give them to the other parent and they only want them back when their bored of not having them or in my aunties case, as soon as she gets bored with the new shag she wants her kids back. My cousins are great and i love them to peices. Stacey is brilliant, we used to be really close and she was like a sister. she found out a couple of years ago that my uncle wasn't her dad and that he had wanted to stay in contact but my auntie hadn't let him. she said he hit her when she really hit him so he wasn't allowed to see stacey.

stacey and bethany have been passed about all their lives and never felt truly loved and since stacey found out about her dad my uncle and her havn't been getting along to well. not her fault his. he refused to talk to her. so stacey did some things that she wasn't to proud of like losing her virginity at 13 and doing some other stuff with boys jsut because it made her feel loved. She gets on and off depression all the time and she once flipped a coin on wether she was going to chop all her hair off or throw herself off a balcony. luckily it landed on cutting her hair off. so she did. bethany hasn't turned out like stacey, no beth is a botch. shes just like her mum and if she doesn't get what she wants she gets angry. she is a pure and utter bitch. but stacey never did that. I think stacey just got on and after the hair thing she was fine. nobody except from me, my mum and my dad could really see what stacey was going through because everybody else in my family and close family friends just thought she was being dramatic but didn't see it for a cry for help. We have always said if she needed somewhere to go for a few days to get away or someone to talk to just call.

things got bad for stacey because everything just got to much. she decided to try and take her own life. luckily she hadn't taken enough and it didn't work. my auntie decidednot to tell anyone just in case it looked bad on her. my cousin tried again but this time if her sister hadn't found her sh'd be dead. shes now in a phyciatric ward at the local hospital. she'll be out in two weeks but this has got to have some impact on her. i tried calling her before this happened(i didn't know she was going to do it) i also tried calling her whilst she been in there.

i told you this because i want somebody to tell me what i could have done to stop this and why things like the social services don't stop things like this happening.

Well did Social services know about this before she went into hospital. Don't blame it on you. Your cousin sounds unpredictable. I don't have any brothers/sisters or any close cousins. They all live far away or are grown up.
But if social services are not doing anything right now I would call them. Get everything you want to say to them or your aunt right now while the moment is still in the air as it will have more of an effect. But don't be too insultive and don't let your cousin see it.
Just some advice, I don't know if I would do it if I was in your shoes so don't take it to seriuosly.

There's nothing you could have done to stop this. The fact that she was at the stage where we wanted to take her own life means she wouldn't have listened to anyone anyway. Don't beat yourself up about it, just be glad she didn't take enough. Once she comes out of hopsital, maybe she will realise the mistakes she's done. She'll probably feel upset and lonely, so try to be there for her, no matter what she's done in the past. I'm surprised social services haven't stepped in, like the above post you need to tell them what's been going on as it's beginning to affect a lot more people now. Don't worry, just tell someone about what's been happening, the whole truth, and everything will be fine.
