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.

I don't know...you may have seen, but I also found out via email yesterday that my landlord is selling my rental. So, I need to find somewhere else to live @MissGremlin

@NightFury oh sweet, that's absolutely terrible. I hate when life just keeps throwing things at us, and it's like we can't catch a break. I'm so sorry that this is another thing for you to have to deal with right now. Have you got a time frame that they have given you?

Re: Battles

I have until the first week in December @MissGremlin and then my lease expires and I need to be out. So, I have time. It's just hard because I just...I just want to settle, to feel settled and have a safe space. The rental market is horrible, and it all feels so impersonal. They don't care about the impact this has on me.

Re: Battles

@NightFury I'm glad you have time. But yes you are right the rental market is horrible. I know you just want that stability and honestly you deserve it so much. What have you been doing today to take care of yourself?

@MissGremlin I didn't get out of bed until 10am, had breakfast and moved to the couch. I haven't really moved from there. I'm going to go get a coffee and a sweet treat soonish.

What about you?

Re: Battles

@NightFury nothing wrong with any of that. You are allowing yourself to rest and that's so important right now. A coffee and a sweet treat soon sounds perfect.

Me, I've been laying down dozing on and off, my body is exhausted in every way possible. So resting it is for me.

Re: Battles

I'm trying not to fill today with jobs to do @MissGremlin.

I should be studying, I should be at work, I should be vacuuming and cleaning the house, I should be bathing and giving my dog a hair brush. I know these jobs exist and that I need to do them, but I'm consciously trying hard not to.

I just need a day of full rest. It's hard to give myself permission to do that though. Your day sounds restful too.

Re: Battles

@NightFury all those jobs can wait my sweet and i know how hard it is to give yourself permission to just rest. Today is your day, rest, relax, sleep if you need, just allow yourself to have this day cos you deserve it so much.
