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.

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin glad to hear that you have the beautiful Casper there with you.

I'm not very social either. I get...overwhelmed and over stimulated in rooms with lots of people, particularly lots of people who are loud.

You're doing a great job, just being there and giving it a go.

@NightFury considering there's lots of kids screaming and running around and i haven't put my ear buds in. I'm actually quite surprised that I'm not in meltdown mode.

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin I've put it away for the night. I wasn't taking any more of it in.

I'm so tired that I'm close to falling asleep on the floor of my loungeroom.

Re: Battles

@tyme you don't need to apologise.

I could, but I'm not doing so well tonight and I just want to stay here for a little longer.

Re: Battles

@NightFury sounds like bedtime for you. I just got home so now I'm getting myself ready for bed.

I hope you can have a good night's rest. Thanks for the company today and tonight 😊
