Hi @orla 🩶
I am so sorry that you had to find this out. I imagine it would come at a complete shock finding this out about your dad and must be very difficult to hear. It is completely understandable to be worried. Thankyou for coming to ReachOut to seek support.
You shouldn’t have to deal with this alone. Services such as Kids Helpline are available if you need to talk to someone now. Additionally, is there anyone that you would feel comfortable talking to about this in person? Maybe another family member, school counsellor, or other trusted professional? It could be helpful to get some support during this stressful situation.
While it may be hard, please also try to take care of yourself during this time. Give yourself time to process it, and be gentle with yourself. It is unfair, and you don’t deserve to go through this.
sending love, hope to speak soon 🫶🏻
