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 sounds like a really gentle and thoughtful plan for yourself today. It makes sense your mind wants to jump ahead, but you’re doing a great job bringing it back to the present moment.

Even just getting up, moving to the lounge, and finding something small to focus on is a really positive step @MissGremlin 💮

Re: Battles

Morning @MissGremlin I was wondering if one of those activities you could do today, is build Lego with me?

I can't until this afternoon because I need to do some study, but I'm all for it this arvo.

@Nala2022 I got up and put on broccoli and cauliflower bake. Now I'm feeling stuck again, really need to keep busy but struggling to find something that fills that need. I've grabbed the diamond art and I'm seeing if I can work out the numbers/letters that are unreadable, I have perfect eyesight so I know it's not just me 😂.

Re: Battles

That sounds delicious! I haven’t made a cauliflower or broccoli bake in ages

It makes sense that you’re feeling a bit stuck and trying to find something to keep your mind occupied.

That would be so frustrating 😅 still, it’s really good you’re giving it a go @MissGremlin 🤗

@Nala2022 it's yummy, I just don't like how long it takes to cook especially when it makes the house smell so good 😂.

I'm doing my best even through the frustration. Casper knows I'm not coping so he's doing his best to help me. I'm still safe for the moment, doing the numbers/letters of the diamond art that I can read and then seeing if I can fill in the gaps based on what ones I haven't used, if that makes sense 😂.

Re: Battles

Haha I know that feeling, when it smells so good but takes forever 😅.

It really sounds like you’re doing your best to work with what you’ve got right now, even through the frustration, and that counts for a lot. And yes, that totally makes sense with the diamond art, kind of like piecing it together bit by bit.

I’m glad Casper is there with you too, he sounds like such a good support. You're doing the best you can, and that is enough 💛
