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.

Re: Battles

That does sound incredibly overwhelming, especially with it happening night after night. I’m really sorry you were told those things, that would have been deeply hurtful, and it makes sense that it’s bringing up past trauma. You deserve to be supported and taken seriously.

I’m really glad you’ve made a cuppa and have Casper with you, those small moments of comfort matter, especially when things feel this heavy. I hope the warmth of your drink brings even a small sense of comfort. 💮

@Nala2022 being supported and taken seriously is something that doesn't seem to happen in my life especially when it really needs to.

Thankyou for always being so kind and understanding ❤️.

I hope you have a lovely day ☺️.

I’m really sorry that feeling supported and taken seriously hasn’t been your experience when you’ve needed it most. You deserve to be heard and treated with care, especially during difficult times.

Of course and I'm glad you feel you can reach out on here. We're here to support you 🤗

Thank you, I hope you do as well @MissGremlin x

@Nala2022 I'm trying to regulate and calm myself even just a bit. But my current environment is very noisy with lots of screaming. I just need quiet and I can't get it, I can't even put my earbuds in as my ear is too sore for it, though they wouldn't be enough to drown out the noise here. I'm safe and trying to just focus on Casper but it's hard and I can feel things building up. I'm also waiting to get through to a crisis service to see if that helps.

Hello @NightFury my sweet, checking in with you today ❤️.

I'm sorry i haven't been around much, I miss our cuppa and chats here.

Re: Battles

No need to apologise!

I haven't really been around much either. @MissGremlin I've been kind of focused on just putting one foot in front of the other and getting through.

I have a sore gum/tooth today.

How has Monday been treating you?

Re: Battles

@NightFury i understand just needing to do that.

I'm sorry you have a sore tooth/gum today, I can relate. I have 3 infected teeth at the moment so I'm in so much pain.

My day is not going well, just trying to keep pushing through. (I'm safe).

Re: Battles

Ouch, that sounds so painful @MissGremlin have you got meds to help you manage the pain/infection?

I believe in you, my friend. You can make it through the hard times.

In response to: Re: Battles

Re: Battles

@NightFury for reasons I can't go into on here I've been trying to avoid taking pain relief (I'm safe). Even if I do take it though it doesn't help unfortunately.

Thankyou sweet, it's just hard when there's so much going on at once.

How's things over there sweetheart?

I've not long gotten home from work @MissGremlin I've got dinner on and have just had a call with my facilitator for Uni.

I feel really teary and emotional for some reason.
