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.

Morning @MissGremlin

So...I'm not in a good frame of mind this morning. I'm really struggling and just need someone to know.

Hope you're okay, my friend.

@NightFury oh sweet, I really do feel you today. I'm here for you if you need to talk, you are not alone. Sending you hugs ❤️

Re: Battles

That's okay! @MissGremlin I am glad you are listening to your body and honouring where you're at. Taking sharing slow is allowed and could be helpful for you to process things in your own time.

What does your support network look like at the moment? 💛

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow well I've been ghosted by the counsellor I was talking to, the other counsellor i went to see after having to reschedule so many times told me that i was too complex and that they can't help me. But I have a few people that I have been chatting to lately that are a big support for me. So the professional side of things has fallen apart but I at least have a few friends to talk to.

Oh, I am so sorry to hear this @MissGremlin. This would be so hard to sit with... I think it's really positive that you have friends who can support you through this time. I am glad to know you aren't managing all of this alone.

Have you been able to do something loving for yourself today?

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow it's very hard to sit with and really just reaffirms those feelings of not being worth helping and being too much for anyone to deal with. When you work up the courage to seek help and open up after being let down so many times before only to be met with responses such as being too complex or just getting ghosted after a few phone calls it really hurts and makes you feel guilty and stupid for being trusting enough to open up. So anyway there's where that's at. Oh and the fact that I've seen my doctor a few times and tried to get him to do some referrals so that I can get support and also opened up about some things that have been happening only to be dismissed and have the subject changed on me. It's so frustrating trying to get help and constantly hitting brick walls.

Something loving i did for myself today, well I chatted to my friends, laughed with them and I've had cuddles and funny moments with Casper.

Re: Battles

Of course, I can imagine... that would feel so vulnerable. @MissGremlin

You aren't too much, but I get why this is coming up for you. Could it be that maybe the psychologist wasn't able to provide the right support, and not about you specifically? 💛

Also - been there with the GP, it's so frustrating and disheartening!!

Awww this is so sweet. How is little Casper?

I truly am so happy to hear you have friends to lean on right now. 🥰
