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

@MissGremlin Good morning Miss G. Gosh I'm sorry to read you have woken up feeling this way and with a loud brain too.

Thank you for letting us know you're safe and for taking care of yourself. Cuppa, Casper...tick tick...sounds like a perfect way to ease into the morning.

I'm around...I'm here.

Let's go gentle and slow...

Sending you my best. Always.

Re: Battles

Morning @hopeful_hannah, my loud brain needs a magic off switch 😂.

I got up to feed Casper, take him to the toilet, make a cuppa and now I've retreated back to my bed with Casper snuggled up to me.

Gentle and slow sounds like a perfect way to take things, especially right now.

I do need to go to the shops later today but that's too much to think about yet, so for now I'm just going to try to enjoy my cuppa.

Thankyou for being here and for being so caring ❤️.

What's on for you today?

@MissGremlin Bed with Casper is peeeeerfect..tick! Rainy where you are this morning?

Yeah don't think about the shops just now! It's Saturday and early, enjoy you're morning. You're allowed :)

What's on for me today? I was keen for an outdoor working bee, some weeding and things, but the rains have come and..well..rained on my parade hahah. I don't know. I have a bit of a cleaning vibe at the moment so I think I might do my bedroom and fix my "floordrobe". I'm really bad at the whole clothes in the right place thing. I fix it and then a few days later it's the same. I might try again and see how I go. Maybe make a stew or roast or something wholesome.

Nothing flash or fancy. Just float around and enjoy the arvo I think.

@hopeful_hannah there's no rain here today but it is a nice and cool 16⁰ with some sunshine.

The shops really don't appeal to me at the moment, maybe I'll get lucky to drag my friend along later today when she's awake.

Haha it really did rain on your parade 😂. Oh well some indoor cleaning it is! Hehe floordrobe really made me giggle, if it's any consolation my actual wardrobe isn't even used for clothes, it's got my games and puzzles in it 😂.

Ooohh i feel like a yummy roast beef now that you've said that 😋.
