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.

@MissGremlin Always here for you. 🥰

How did the rest of your evening go and what strategies did you notice helped you the most?

PS: I have seen you supporting people with a lot of compassion and positivity this week. (Now we just have to figure out some ways you can do that for you too 😉)

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow thankyou. Last night I crashed it but had a restless night.

Today/tonight has been really bad. I've just picked myself up off the floor after passing out, think everything just got too much for my body. Trying to get myself to bed but just feeling very unsteady and blah.

Second by second for me at the moment.

Re: Battles

Second by second is okay, you know. ☺️ I think that's the best way to nurture yourself when things are overwhelming. What would you like to do to take care of yourself for the next, say, 15 minutes? @MissGremlin

PS: I am leaving in 15, but I will be back on Sunday and promise to check in then! 💛

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow 15 minutes is a long time for me to even think about. But right now I'm trying to do some colouring and I've almost finished my picture. At the moment I'm getting stuck in flashbacks so I'm present some moments but not others. It's very overwhelming and it's going to make for a long night. I reached out to a crisis service just before and thankfully got someone that was understanding and just listened, they knew they couldn't fix me but it was just being there.

They sent this through to me.

 

Really hope to chat to you on Sunday. Hope you have a good night and weekend ❤️

@MissGremlin talk to me for a minute?

Tell me about Casper?

What's his favourite thing to do?

In response to: Re: Battles

Re: Battles

@NightFury sure. You doing ok?

Casper is snoozing on my bed.

Hmmm his favourite thing to do, he loves playing with squeaky toys so he can get rather noisy with them.

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin I will be. I just need someone to talk to me...a connection for a minute....

Does he destroy them? My dog Luna destroys her squeaky toys. She loves the squeak, so much she rips it out of her toys then just chews on it.

Re: Battles

@NightFury happy to be here for you.

No he doesn't, he hasn't destroyed anything. He has fun doing the zoomies and he loves to roll around in the grass.

In response to: Re: Battles

Re: Battles

Thank you @MissGremlin

The Zoomies are one of the cutest things ever.

Re: Battles

@NightFury aren't they just. And of course he is clumsy so it's always entertaining.

He has his first vet visit with me tomorrow, nurse check up first then his vaccination.
