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.

@Ru-bee it's just frustrating that I've gone from living life minute by minute to now second by second. Feels like a big step backwards right now. I've been crashed out on my lounge today as I just can't function, I don't have it in me to do anything.

Re: Battles

It sounds like you just really need to rest today @MissGremlin, so it might not feel like hanging on the couch today is so good, but if that's all you can manage today that's completely okay.

@Ru-bee i do have to get up unfortunately. I don't want to have to leave the lounge or my house but I don't have a choice there. Deep breaths, I can do this, I think.

Feel free to send some gentle reminders for me.

No doubt in my mind you got this @MissGremlin it might be hard but we all know you can definitely get through hard things. Go Dreamy, go! (Imagine me with some pom poms here being your cheerleader 😂)

Thanks @Ru-bee, hehe that made me chuckle 😊. Am sitting outside now although avoiding the sunshine at all costs, it's a bit too bright for me.

@MissGremlin I am sorry I didn't get back to you last night, but I hope you were able to get some rest in the end. 💛

That's okay, you always do so well to show up, ask for support, and work on self-regulation. I am really proud of the effort you put in, despite how scary things can feel.

I know this week has been more intense for you; how are you feeling today?

And how is our little furry friend? 🥰

Hello @AuntGlow, that's ok. I didn't get very much sleep and I'm feeling very flat today, I've been laying on my lounge for most of it. But I had to head out for a bit so I'm trying to just remember to breathe so I can get through it until I can head home. Won't be back home until about 4pm so still have a while to go. Thankyou for those kind words ❤️

Casper is doing well, currently laying in front of me being the good boy he is.

How are you going today?

Thanks for those jokes. I'm only just getting around to replying but i did read them first thing this morning. They definitely brought a smile to my face... much needed right now. I'll have to find some of my own and return the favour. Or find more Katy Perry videos... which ever is easiest and funniest.

I hope you're getting through the day relatively... umm... well, you know... getting through. Give Casper a big belly rub from me.

Re: Battles

@MJG017 i got plenty more where they came from. I struggle to watch too much at the moment cos focus is almost non existent.

I'm surviving the day, back home now so that's a bonus. How's the day been for you?

Casper is always getting the belly rubs 😊
