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.

@MJG017 i just wish there was an easy way past it. You know a way that I could just overcome it and not have that freeze response. Stupid brain that doesn't work properly 😂. It's really nice to be able to talk to someone that gets it, you explain it so well it really helps to know that someone understands exactly what it's like.

Thanks ❤️

Hey guess what i saw when I was in the carpark though and it made me smile cos it reminded me of you. There was a Tesla with the numberplate LUNA! So in a moment where I almost completely broke down I saw that and it just made me smile so I was able to hold myself together long enough to get my shopping done.

Re: Battles

@Jynx anything really.

I'll share something with you and @MJG017. After what happened today i came home and broke down crying but I can confirm that Casper did amazing, he knew i was upset and snuggled with me on the lounge giving me lots of kisses to make sure I was ok ❤️.

How are you going?

I was dancing around my house earlier to Sunchyme by Dario G 😂

If anyone could figure that out, they'd be the most famous mental health therapist that has ever lived! It's hard and its such a struggle. All we can really do is chip away at it. But we can get better at it. We just need to accept that we will have wins, but we'll have a lot of loses as well. It's all part of it unfortunately.

Oh, that's so nice. Luna was there helping you in spirit... or plate! 🤗 I'll give her some treats for you.

Oh... such a good dog. I'm so glad he was there for you and got you up and dancing.

That song you mentioned was like it was in a foreign language for me. So i looked it up. I used to love that song "life in a Northern Town" back in the day. It took me a while listening to remember where i had heard that main background lyric from.

My day has been busy. Quite a bit of support group work to do. We were just featured on the social interwebs so a little burst of new members this morning. A few other things to sort out while doing my best between distractions to get some more assignment work done.

Aww @MissGremlin what a good pup!! They are so special hey, our fuzzy pals!

Ooh nice, I will have to look it up! I have been putting energy into my barefoot running instead past couple days, it's been nice to get back into!

@MJG017 chugging along hehe! Struggling to motivate myself to start properly decluttering 😵😆

How's your world?

Re: Battles

@MJG017 it's an older song now. But I only just remembered it so added it to my play list.

Sounds like a productive day, yay for some new members. Am I one of those distractions stopping you from doing your assignment 😂

Re: Battles

@Jynx yes he is a very good boy and animals are amazing 😊.

Barefoot running sounds fun, just not for me 😂.

I'm stuck having to be in a room full of people, really not up for it tonight.

I still love the old 80s stuff. It always takes me back to my teenage years. I need that these days more than ever, although there is a touch of sadness as well looking back and knowing what was to come. But that's life i guess.

You were one of many distracts today. There were quite a few emails and a few online things i need to sort out than popped up today. Now tonight my newish phone decided to pack it in... well the screen did anyway... so yet another email.

In the end, i did get some decent progress on my assignment. My GP/nurse appointment is first think tomorrow morning. Maybe not 'first thing', but 9am. Thats first thing for me anyway. So i'll have he rest of the day after about 10am free to get some more done. Maybe 🤔😁

Re: Battles

@MJG017 yes being taken back has both good and bad feelings that come with it.

Oh no not the phone, that's just annoying. Hopefully it's an easy fix?

That's an early start for you, hope the appointment goes smoothly and you're able to talk about everything needed.

I'll try not to distract you too much tomorrow so you can get your assignment done 😂.
