Managing thoughts of suicide & self-harm

Battles

Battles

Hi all, does anyone else just feel like life is just one big sh!t show? It's just one thing after another, constant drama, family issues, money struggles, stress, anxiety it's just always something.

When do things get easier, do things ever change?

I've been through more than i care to think about in my life but today has pushed me to breaking point and it's bringing up alot of bad memories of previous suicide attempts.

I just feel like it's not worth it, it's not worth fighting, not worth hanging on anymore.

@ENKELI well hopefully you can get to funnings and Coles tomorrow, 27⁰ is definitely alot better than 37⁰.

Yes it's nice but people including family still need to respect boundaries. Tonight was just a bad time of night for a visit cos it interrupted my routine when I was already overwhelmed. But nonetheless it was still nice to see them.

Oh I can only imagine how hard that would be, there's no way I could even record my voice to send to someone. Wishing you lots of luck doing it sweet, you've got this though ❤️.

They tried to call me yesterday but I had only just woken up and was having a full on panic attack so I couldn't answer. Talking to someone about thoughts and feelings is hard enough as it is but impossible when one is already so overwhelmed and panicking. Maybe I'll see if I can call them on Monday but I have that housing SA meeting and then it all depends on what happens after that as to what happens next.

Thankyou sweetheart, i hope you have a lovely Sunday too ❤️

@MissGremlin what's more important at the moment sweet? The housing thing right? So do that Monday and make the call Tuesday. Doing both sounds like it might be too overwhelming for you and while I have plenty of anti-anxiety meds to share with you it's better if you don't have to take anything.

I am going to have to record the stoopid call thing tomorrow, maybe after I've been to Funnings and Coles and I'm in a good mood. A trip to Funnings is always a way to make me smile, even if it's just for potting mix. Let's be honest, I'll go in wanting one thing and come out with 5 things.

I am considering doing click and collect for groceries because I almost always go over budget.

Take it easy Sunday, even God rested on the 7th day so it is perfectly acceptable for you to do nothing, read a book, watch TV or do something equally unproductive. It's been a high anxiety week for you, you need to have one day of peace and rest darling heart xoxo

@ENKELI the housing situation is definitely priority. I'll see how i feel after the appointment and if I'm up for it I'll try to make the call to the mental health team. Me and medications do not get along with each other 😂.

Funnings is always fun 😂. I don't think I've ever walked in there and not walked out with something even if i didn't plan on getting anything 😂. Hopefully that trip will be enough to put you in a good mood so you can tackle the recording. Can always go down the pet aisle and squeak all the toys 😂.

It's so easy to go over budget, the cost of living is through the roof.

I will try to have a rest day tomorrow, going to need all my strength for the meeting on Monday. Thankyou for always being so understanding and supportive sweetheart ❤️

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin you are so very welcome. You need love and support, most of all you deserve it.

Now I'm going to definitely go down the pet aisle and say "Dreamy made me do it." If anyone looks at me when I squeeze the toys!! 🤣🤣

Sleep well gorgeous xo

Re: Battles

Hi @MissGremlin I'm feeling the pressure to get things done today. I've cleaned the bathroom and the toilet and changed the bedding, now onto the next job.

How are things over there?

Re: Battles

@NightFuryyou've already done so much this morning sweet, well done. Just remember to pause and take a moment for yourself in between things.

I'm not going to even try to say how things are this morning for me. I'm safe though and laying with Casper.

Re: Battles

Yeah, there's just a lot on today and it's overwhelming @MissGremlin but it is nice to deep clean the house.

Hugs, my friend. I'll be pottering around today if you need company.

Re: Battles

@NightFury can understand it being overwhelming but yes it's nice to deep clean.

Thankyou sweet, I'll be trying to focus more on just supporting others and keeping connected today.
