Managing thoughts of suicide & self-harm

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.

Re: Battles

@tymeso I've heard alot of hurtful things over the past hour or so. Things that are being said behind my back and yet noone can tell me what I've done wrong if it's even anything at all. How am I supposed to fix the situation if I don't know what I'm fixing. Like we are supposed to be family and yet we are becoming complete strangers. I really never thought my own mother would stoop so low to poison my own kids against me, she has succeeded with one but the other has more sense and sees past her bullsh!t. I guess i really shouldn't be surprised given what she has put me through growing up and the things she still does, but it's just really hurtful. She has no idea what's happened to me recently and how much I'm struggling cos she never bothers to even care, not that I want her knowing anyway cos I can't trust her.

Anyway I'm at the point where I don't know if I want to even try to fix the situation or just keep myself distanced like I've been doing to avoid getting hurt more.

Re: Battles

I'm sorry to hear this @MissGremlin .

Would you consider speaking directly to them and asking what it is that they feel you have done 'wrong'?

We've all made mistakes. I know I have. But as you said, you can' fix what you don't know.

Re: Battles

@tyme i can't even speak to them cos I know what I'll be met with.

I just know it's nothing I've done but rather what's in their heads and the stupid lies they believe.

Sorry to hear this @MissGremlin . So moving on, what do you think you can do? Do they live with you?

Re: Battles

@tyme no they don't. Honestly I'm not sure there's anything I can do. I don't have the energy to fight the battles between them when I have things going on myself.
