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.

I'm sorry you were let down by the crisis service, yet again! Its baffling just how bad and counteroroductive a service like that can be! You didnt get the support you needed and that is a huge problem.

I just got back from my GP appointment. Apparently any option I have is just too expensive so I just get to sit here and wait for the rapidly approaching inevitable. So im in a similar head space right now where i feel like what is the point when no one will help?!

Its so frustrating when that help is there, but youre just deemed to be too hard or too expensive a case to do anything for!

So all I can do is sit here with you today as we try to desl with everything dumped on us. At least we can feel like we matter here.

And again, im sorry someone couldnt do their job for you this morning.

@MJG017 I'm so sorry to hear 😞. I hate that there's no options other than to just sit and wait, it doesn't seem fair or right. I'm sitting with you and I'm sending you those non-contact hugs ❤️

Thanks @MissGremlin, it means a lot right now. Im sending some back to you and hoping you find it equally helpful right now.

Re: Battles

Thanks @MJG017 and it means alot to me aswell.

You doing anything to keep yourself distracted?

I've done 2 loads of washing, tidied my loungeroom as Casper had toys spread everywhere, did my dishes and I'm really trying to bring myself to do some painting but I'm not sure if I can. My hand really hurts (self inflicted), I couldn't colour last night either.

I gpt home, sat in the car for 10 minutes. Maybe it was half an hour... who knows. Then i came inside, sat down on the couch and put random Youtube on in the background. I did get some cuddles from Luna though, so that was nice. im still not sure if this current plan is until lunch time, then end of the day, or the rest of the year. I guess we'll find out. Still, Luna seems to like me sitting here... I rhink its just my body heat and 'padding', but ill take it right about now.

Re: Battles

@MJG017 can't even imagine how you are feeling right now. I'm glad you are getting Luna cuddles, chill on the lounge for as long as you need to. Just know that I'm here for you always ♥️

Thanks @MissGremlin

Maybe ill eventually think of a reason to get off the couch, but if not, at least its a comfy place to sit.

How are you feeking after this morning? I'm not sure why I've asked, but it seems polite to ask anyway. 🤔 Just know that I definitely appreciate having you around to chat with and how unfair it is that you cant get some proper support.

Thank god for pets! 🐈‍⬛️🐕

Re: Battles

How's it going over there @MJG017, did you manage to find a reason to get off the couch?

I actually fell asleep on mine for a bit. Have woken up feeling worse though so now I'm back to having to fight myself.

Casper did enjoy the nap with me ♥️.

Nope, im still sitting here. It seems im not having the best of days.

Luna has been snoozing on the seat next to me so i think, like Casper, she is enjoying having me close by all day.
