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.

Thankyou @Chasingsunsets sweet ❤️.

Too many spider interactions 😂.

It was @NightFury with the coffee pods ☺️

@MissGremlin Did I tell you once when I was camping I saw a cool spider when walking in the dark. I wasn’t even shining a light on it for that long and it must not have appreciated being in the lime light and took down his web! 😯😅

I felt bad for him lol

ohh sorry not reading properly! It was @NightFury, thanks for letting me know dreamy! NightFury I hope you were able to retrieve your pods hehe

Re: Battles

@Chasingsunsets sounds like an orb-weaver, they pack away their webs each day and rebuild them every night. If you shine a light on them they will often pack it up thinking is daytime ☺️.

Thank you for sharing this lovely, I hope that using your creativity and your words to express how you're feeling has been cathartic. @MissGremlin

I can hear how much you're needing this pain to subside, and I really want to make sure that we are supporting you to the best of our ability in keeping you safe.

Would calling a support line be helpful tonight?

I am also wondering if you have a safety plan you could turn to before bed? 💛

Re: Battles

Oh wow @MissGremlin, you know your spiders hehe!!

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow writing helps to reflect on how I'm feeling, it doesn't take the pain away and sometimes reading it is hard cos it makes everything feel more real. But it's an outlet to get things out.

A support line wouldn't help cos they straight away panic and want to call emergency services which isn't wanted nor needed at the moment.

I haven't had a safety plan for a while now. Not since my colouring and crafts became useless to help me and various lines were no longer an option to reach out to. I just run with things in the moment in the hopes that something helps to keep me safe for as long as possible until I can fall asleep or thoughts/feelings shift slightly.

Again I'm safe for now just in case it needs to be said.

@Chasingsunsets orb-weavers are beautiful spiders. I had one the other day that had made it's web between 2 bushes and my car, thankfully I didn't destroy his/her web when I had to go out.

Re: Battles

Did you have to walk @MissGremlin 😂, so you didn’t mess the web up 😂

I have a red light touch now so hopefully if I come across one it doesn’t think it’s morning 😂🤭

In response to: Re: Battles

Re: Battles

@Chasingsunsets haha no i didn't, I just started reversing very slowly but it's web wasn't attached to my car thankfully. I have had to get them to pack up before cos they've been in the way but they then find another spot to build there web ☺️.

Oh that's a good idea and hopefully it helps, they really are pretty to look at and their webs are stunning works of art.
