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

@AuntGlow i was thinking the same thing 😂.

I'm feeling a little less on edge and I've managed to put certain things away so I'm calling it a win. Thankyou ♥️

And thankyou @NightFury for joining in 😊

Re: Battles

Yes, I want to watch that again too! @MissGremlin

Oh, that must have been very overwhelming... can you try a breathing exercise and some slow sips of water before bed?

I have to go now, but it was lovely speaking with you. Will we chat tomorrow? 🥰

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow its a good movie.

It was a bit of a scary moment, just feeling a little light headed now. I'm not game enough to drink anything at the moment cos I hit the gag reflex which sets my anxiety off but I'll be ok.

Thankyou for the company, chats and support. I'm sure we will chat tomorrow. Night night ♥️

Re: Battles

Is there any @moderator around please? Just need someone to sit with me while I'm waiting to get through to lifeline. I've woken up having a panic attack and I've been hit with strong SI and SH urges. I'm safe but just don't want to sit alone right now.
