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 @MissGremlin ,

I'm sorry you're having a rough night tonight. But I'm so glad to see how proactive you are.

What sort of activities do you like doing for self-care?

I remember reading that you like colouring, have you done any colouring today?

I love colouring but sometimes I get stuck trying to decide what colours to use! 😅

Hi @PrincessLettuce, I'm really trying just things are feeling a bit intense at the moment.

Earlier tonight I was doing my jigsaw puzzle but I haven't done any colouring for the past couple of days as I just can't focus. I've sort of set it all up but then just stared at it unable to actually do any.

Picking colours is hard especially when you have 100 different colours to choose from 😂

Re: Battles

I know you've felt like this many times before @MissGremlin . It's rough I know. I hope this feeling passes soon.

It sounds like your puzzle is ready for you when you're ready for it!

I also have 100 colours, and it makes it so hard! The last time I coloured a few weeks ago I decided to not be too picky with what colours I'd use, and the picture was awful. 😂

Anything else in your toolbox? Some idea, that may be entirely inappropriate and unsuitable but here goes: a shower, music, movie, a cup of tea or hot chocolate, a game on your phone!

I might not be here when you reply next, but you'll be in good hands with the next moderator!

Hope you feel better soon!

Thanks @PrincessLettuce, I hope so.

I tried music and TV shows, I had 2 hot drinks, listened to music for hours and played games on my phone. Just nothing is working tonight.

I'm fighting to stay awake cos I'm scared to sleep, I feel like if I sleep I'm going to die, haven't felt like this in a very long time and I just don't know why I feel it tonight.

Morning @NightFury, we still haven't come up with a way to ask how each other is going without directly asking it. So I'm just going to say that I hope the day so far has been filled with warmth and doggy cuddles ♥️.

I leave this space open for you to share anything you want, if you want to share feelings, thoughts, emotions or you just want to chat about a random subject. The choice is yours my sweet, I'm here for whatever you feel you need 😊

@MissGremlin I know we haven't. We need to figure it out though...so it doesn't feel weird.

I am feeling really heavy today. Heavy and anxious and I'm struggling. I woke up like it, but I have a things to do (an assignment to work on, housework etc), so I'm forcing myself to do it.

My head hurts, my brain is foggy, my heart is beating in my head and I just want to give up today. Which is why, I'm forcing myself to do the things...

I'm going to get some work on my assignment done and try something to reset myself.

I hope your day has been filled with Casper cuddles so far too. Here if you want to share.
