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

Oh my goodness, this is so much to go through at once, isn't it? And I can absolutely see how all of these things in succession would create a sense of feeling unsupported. That sense of being alone in the uncertainty can absolutely feel destabilising - I truly understand what this is like, so I think anchoring into your supports here is a really beautiful way to support yourself through this time. I will be back tomorrow and we can talk more then, okay? But for now, try to think of one person who you feel safe with and start a conversation with them - it can be about anything. We just want to make sure you're feeling safe and connected tonight. Big hugs. @MissGremlin 💛

@AuntGlow it really is. I just want things to stop but they don't. I look forward to being able to talk tomorrow. I've been talking to captain on their thread which helps to feel connected and we care about each other alot. The person I'd talk to outside of the forums is struggling and has thoughts of suicide so I'm trying to support them while being petrified of losing them. I don't feel safe but I am safe if that makes sense. Thankyou for the hugs, they are much appreciated ❤️.

@Chasingsunsets waiting for pic to load. My night has been really tough, so many things have happened. Even had an ambulance called on me which thankfully I was able to get stopped as it just was completely unnecessary. I'm just sitting in bed doing my diamond art with Casper snoozing away in front of me.

The gecko is a cute one and I'm happy with how it turned out.

How's your night going?

Re: Battles

Ah I am glad you thought it was unnecessary @MissGremlin re ambulance. Out of interest how do you get them stopped? I have been thinking of you over the last couple of days. What would you find helpful tonight?

yesss you inspired me, I haven’t done that much of it and keep doing other things but many in another year it will be done lol. I learnt my lesson though I need to buy smaller ones lol.

@Chasingsunsets tonight I'm just trying to keep connected. I went into shut-down the other day and things got really scary. I try to fight when my brain tells me to shut down but unfortunately this time I wasn't strong enough. I've been able to come back from it a bit but it's still a struggle at times (I'm safe).

The big ones are very time consuming which can be good but other times i like the smaller ones that don't take as long or as much concentration. The good thing is you can take as much time as you need with them ☺️.

@Chasingsunsets thankyou sweet and sending love and hugs to you and Indi ❤️. That's the comforter on my bed that Casper is laying on, it's just a cheap big w one, grey on one side and black on the other.

Re: Battles

Good to hear @MissGremlin @re keeping connected, it’s always great to connect with you 😊. (Not sure if you sure my edit on last post re question, just curious, but all good if don’t want to answer that). Im glad you could come back from it but I hear it wasn’t easy. I know that feeling 🙏

yess the big ones (the only one I’ve done 🙈) been challenging haha.
