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.

@MissGremlin noooo it's no fun being sickly 😭 I wish you a speeeedy recovery!!
Reddit can be overwhelming for sure haha. You don't even have to sign up to view the content, so it's a good place to go for memes and stuff 😋 When you feel ready of course!

I also feel guilty about my brain having a bit of a freak out, because it's for a good reason and I totally get it.


@NightFury no reason to feel guilty for having a perfectly normal reaction to a potentially difficult adjustment. This kinda change is always gonna be a little unsettling!

What have you decided to do to fill out your days? Any adventures planned?

Thanks @Jynx, I expect some big hugs being sent from you before you finish up for the night 😂. I get overwhelmed very easily and especially at the moment. Glad you don't have to have an account though, that eases a little bit of the worry.

@Jynx I want to go to the movies. I'm going to try for tomorrow. I love going to the movies, but haven't managed to get myself there for months...we'll see...

I've just been asked to look after my niece...trying to decide whether I put a boundary in there too...

I'm going to watch one of the little people in my family dance on Monday at her dance concert.

I'm having coffee with a friend before she leaves for Scotland on Wednesday.

I have a small medical procedure I have to get done on the following Monday.

But nothing else planned as of yet.

@MissGremlin here's one just in case I forget (or don't have time)!! Which let's be real, there is a distinct chance of occurring ahaha lil adhd brain o mine is very distractible!

@NightFury I saw a quote yesterday that I liked - "Going to the movies is a solo event you occasionally take friends to" - I agree! It's nice to just go by oneself, sit in the dark, take in the film, form my own opinion about it... I hope you get to go!

Sounds pretty dece so far! Any days you're particularly concerned about or... ?

Re: Battles

@Jynx all of the days...

I actually prefer going to the movies by myself.

Thanks @NightFury, just a bit too much happening at the moment. Trying to slow things down but everything is just racing.
