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

Part of what I've been working on with the OCD course I've been doing @MissGremlin is putting my phone away when I'm supposed to be sleeping. I've been putting it in a drawer next to my bed. It's hard because I can't reach out.

Re: Battles

@NightFury can understand putting it away but also know it would be hard to not be able to reach out.

Sending love and hugs sweetheart ❤️.

Re: Battles

@Chasingsunsets I'm not feeling ok within myself. Thing's are really hard at the moment. I'm safe, just laying in bed with Casper.

I hope you can get a good night's sleep sweet.

I can hear that things are feeling really big for you today. I can't imagine how overwhelming that must feel. Know that we are here for you, no matter how you're feeling. @MissGremlin We welcome all of you, always.

I understand how hard it is to believe our own affirmations... out of curiosity, what were they?

I am well, just recovering from a very big week of performing and finishing assessments for the trimester.

What are you and Casper doing atm? 🥰
