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

@rav3n my day has been a bit all over the place. A bad experience with a crisis service didn't help when I was already struggling but @MJG017 really helped me throughout the day. I threw myself into a bit of a cleaning frenzy, I vacuumed the house, did the dishes, watered the back garden and went through some drawers that needed sorting. I did a little bit of my painting tonight and now I'm sitting on my bed hoping to do some colouring if I can. Mind is starting to wander a bit given that it's night time and things have slowed down. Oh and I've got my music playing. I also had a telehealth appointment with my gp even though I really needed to go in there to get him to check some things but I couldn't leave puppy home alone. Unfortunately I forgot to tell him the most important things of what's been happening but oh well, hopefully next appointment in 2 weeks time if I remember.

@MissGremlin Thank you! Maybe we can share croissant and coffee virtually at some point? 🥐☕

I am so glad you are feeling grateful for the forums, and I am happy we can all be here for you. It's okay if you don't have anything else in mind at the moment. Although, I would like to hear if anything else pops up for you, so be sure to tag me! 😊

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow i haven't had a croissant for a long time so I reckon we should definitely do that 😊.

I'll be sure to tag you if anything else does pop up. Right now there's alot of bad things happening in my life so it's incredibly hard to be grateful for anything. I do also have my 9 week old puppy that I'm training to be my assistance dog, still have alot of anxiety around it given alot of trauma previously from my other dogs. I lost one of my dogs last year, she was my assistance dog and she was only 3 years old, sadly she had Renal dysplasia and her body just couldn't fight anymore. I've had to put 4 dogs down in the past 5 years so it's been a very rough run.
