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.

Hi @rav3n, I'm really not liking it. This is meant to be my safe space, so this really isn't fair. Kind of just feeling heart broken today in so many ways.

How are you going?

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin Big hugs to you my beautiful friend. You are such a good hearted soul to ask me how I am even when you are not feeling well yourself.

The good thing is we’ve made to the PM time of the day. I am truly sorry that you feel awful. I wish there was more I could do to support you. I am here though if you want/need to chat. You absolutely don’t have to I just want you to know you are not alone.

I’ve not done anything today. Just doing my best to get to bedtime. I will try have a shower later. I need one that’s for sure. Not sure how they will go but I’ll try.

Im mostly just online trying to find ways to access housing. I’m not doing well in that task because there’s not really much help in this housing crisis. The services that exist have little care.

@Cuddlebear thankyou, those kind words mean so much right now.

Yes we are into the PM part of the day, I've only had an hour of broken sleep so I'm just trying to rest today. Counting down those hours to bedtime. Just knowing that you are hear for me is so helpful, so thankyou ❤️.

I should shower but I'm not sure if I have it in me today, part of me wants to try cos maybe it will make me feel a bit better, the other part just doesn't have any energy to even move.

I really hope this housing situation is resolved for you soon, I know all too well what its like to be in that position. Sending you hugs ♥️

Re: Battles

Thanks @rav3n, i wish I could go through and edit alot of my posts but there's just far too many to go through and the damage is already done 💔. I'm just trying to keep to general chatting cos talking about any traumas past or present is being used against me and that hurts. I really just need to keep distracted today, right now the tears are flowing and that I don't like not when I'm alone and with noone on the other end of a phone call. It's a scary feeling to be alone with my thoughts and all the feelings swirling around inside of me. I'm safe and reaching out as I need to but things are just intense at the moment.

I'm thankful to be here and this community really does mean everything to me and I don't want to lose it.

@MissGremlin Anytime I can help I’m here. I’m really sorry you feel unsafe and if there’s anything that helps at all please let me know.

Having little sleep is hard. You don’t have to push yourself even to shower. Do only what you can as we can only do that and that is OK. Showering can help with feeling better but right now and with so little sleep it’s ok to put it off. Getting through today does take energy and it is a successful day getting through even if that’s the single thing you do.

Yes I hope the situation changes and I can find somewhere to live. I wish I wasn’t blind that would help and I wish my mental health was better. I’m very stuck and feeling overwhelmed which results in sitting at home just surviving. Hopefully things will improve.
