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

@RiverSeal things have really amped up a bit for me and I'm feeling very heightened right now. Trying to focus on my music and colouring for the time being. Just not wanting to sit alone while I'm waiting to get through to lifeline.

Re: Battles

Sounds like you are doing a great job of keeping yourself occupied with music and colouring! How long have you been on hold with Lifeline for @MissGremlin? RiverSeal ❤️

Re: Battles

@RiverSeal I'm really trying. I've been waiting for 40 minutes now.

Re: Battles

Ok great, so the worst of waiting is probably over by now, but we can't be sure. This is your second time since this afternoon, so do you think it's important to wait until someone answers the phone @MissGremlin? I am here for a while yet, so I can sit with you while you are waiting to get through. RiverSeal

Re: Battles

@RiverSeal yes it is important that I wait especially with what's happening right now and I'm trying hard to keep waiting. That's why I thought if I have someone to sit with while I'm waiting i might not give up so easily.

Thankyou ❤️
