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

agreed, the cost of living is through the roof @MissGremlin that's definitely a lot on your plate, but i can see talking about it is also a lot - slowing down with you.

i just took so deep breaths and clenched + unclenched my knuckles (i would crack them... but i've over-cracked them today).

i'll be heading off soon, sending you some hugs before i go 💙

Re: Battles

@rav3n i haven't even had a chance to try to slow things down. It's just been go, go, go here and I'm struggling. I feel everything is going to come crashing down soon.

I hope you have a good evening. Thanks for those hugs ♥️

Hi @NightFury, I really have no comment on my day. You know those days where it's just one thing after another, that's been my day.

I hope your day went ok?

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin yeah, I know those days.

I've had a long day. Just a work day, but it started early and I've been kind of irritable. I'm taking a night off study though, because I need it.

Re: Battles

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin it does, but it doesn't sound like a good idea. I feel a tad guilty.

What's for dinner?

@NightFury Don't feel guilty, you deserve to rest aswell.

@MissGremlin I'm having ham and cheese toasties tonight. They're quick and easy and I can't be bothered cooking.
