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

@Chasingsunsets i have tried really hard today, I'm so exhausted. I've kept myself busy so did dishes, vacuumed the house, washing, cleaned the bathroom, had a shower and did some diamond art. I'm really hoping i can sleep tonight, my head is hurting at the moment. How are you feeling sweetheart?

I don't know @MissGremlin

It seems like...my brain can't cope with anything little extra thing in my day at the moment. My anxiety this morning was having a meltdown simply because I was running late. There were road workers outside my house blocking my driveway and I couldn't leave when I wanted to, but it was only about ten minutes.

Any little spanner in the works derails me. and it's a full physical experience with pretty intense physical anxiety symptoms. It's a lot.

@NightFury those little things are usually just what tips us over the edge when there's other underlying things happening. Don't even get me started on roadworks, I couldn't get back to my house the other day when they blocked off my driveway, then the worker had the gall to abuse me over it. I said to him where was the warning to say that I would have limited access to my property, then he let me get to my house.

I know it's alot sweet and I'm sorry that it's like that at the moment. Try to be gentle with yourself. Sending you lots of love and hugs ❤️.

I didn't have notice either @MissGremlin

They just showed up with utes and vests and signs to close the road and parked in front of my house doing their thing.

Anyway, how's your day been?

Re: Battles

@NightFury it's really unfair when you don't get any warning about it. It really sent my anxiety through the roof.

My day has been tough with urges but I kept myself busy, also didn't nap in the hopes that I can get a good sleep tonight. I'm glad to be sitting in bed now.

Re: Battles

Hats off to you @MissGremlin it sounds like despite some heavy feelings you have managed so much. This honestly deserves to be celebrated, you have done so well. Good on you!!

Hows your head?

I am doing better and indi is too. After 6 hours post taking her home Indi finally woke up a bit more. Not too impressed with how sedated she was (never is normally like this) from her 57 (what feels like but not really that many lol) she’s only needed sedating 3 times- this was the third. She was so sedated she wouldn’t move herself so I had to turn her every hour, I feel that’s a bit much but at the same time glad she was with me rather than just in a cage at the vets and I don’t know how often they are checked on there. So anyway torn feelings with the whole thing. But nothing wrong with her appetite still wobbly but ate everything but only gave her half of dinner. Anyway enough about us!

what are you and Casper up to?

Re: Battles

@Chasingsunsets thankyou sweet, i just knew i needed to keep busy to stay safe.

My head hurts, it's just a headache though so I'm hoping once I sleep it will go away.

That's definitely a long time, it's always worrying when they are not 100%. Sounds like they may have given her a little too much but I'm really glad that she was with you so you could take care of her. That's good that she ate for dinner aswell, hoping tomorrow she is back to herself. Gentle hugs for you both ❤️.

I've just sat in bed with my diamond art in front of me and Casper is laying at the bottom of my bed.
