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.

Hey @MissGremlin

I'm in the middle of driving home... A little pitstop on the way.

Is there anything I can do to help?

Hi @MJG017. A pitstop for some yummy snacks?

I'm just trying really hard to keep myself distracted for as long as I can.

Re: Battles

Hey @MissGremlin what distraction are you onto now? Do you have any new colouring pages to share?

@Ru-bee watching pretty woman at the moment, well I mean it's on in the background while I'm doing something else. No I haven't finished another yet.

Funny you should say that. I've just pulled up at Suntralis to get some yummy snacks on my way home. Great minds!😀

I know that feeling of trying to start distracted, it's exhausting, but for the most part I find it helps more than it harms.

Re: Battles

@MJG017 ooohh yummy. What did you get? You can drop some snacks off once you are back this way and pick up some shortbread biscuits 😉

Would just be great if I could find something that works, I mean other than chatting here.
