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

@NightFury I'm not holding up ok and my ex was just here so I'm shaky and feeling fragile. Just trying to keep myself distracted at the moment while watching my TV show.

How are you doing?

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin sorry to hear you had a visitor. It sounds like a challenging visit

I'm at work, but have non-teaching time this afternoon. I feel really foggy today, but have upped my meds to the full dose now, so it could be my body making the adjustment. Just kinda wanna sleep.

Re: Battles

@NightFury the visit itself went ok this time, but it's the trauma that i relive when he is here that's hard and there's no knowing what will happen when he comes.

That foggy feeling isn't nice, could very well be the meds so hopefully it settles soon. I'm glad you have a bit of non-teaching time, means you can just relax a bit. Really feel like bedtime can't come soon enough today.

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin just got home from work. Trying to decide if I want to study, or have a night off. I'm leaning towards having a night off, but I also know that my head isn't in a great place, so maybe studying might help serve as a distraction.

How's Casper going?
