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.

Hello my sweet @NightFury, how are you feeling today?

I needed some cheering up as it's been a very emotional couple of days so I brought myself this today.

Hey @MissGremlin I'm okay. Feeling kind of scattered and all over the place though.


I'm trying to work on an assignment. I started off well, and then my Dad and my niece came over to fix a few things for me, and now I can't focus enough to get back into it with any kind of flow. I'm getting frustrated with it.

I brought myself this very same Lego set for my birthday (I brought 3 sets). I've been slowly working at putting it together. What a great way to cheer yourself up.

@NightFury i really do feel that at the moment. My counsellor cancelled my appointment this morning that I was supposed to have this afternoon, it's kind of triggered me cos I feel like it's history repeating itself with the last one that did the same thing and then ghosted me for weeks. So it's just hard to not get anxiety over the same thing happening again. But I still had my doctors appointment and got my bloods taken as there's a few things that have been concerning me so now I will wait for those results.

Sounds like a break is in order maybe it will help to refocus or maybe it's a matter of giving it a try again tomorrow.

I did see that you had brought the same set, I'm looking forward to starting it.

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin sounds like you're dealing with some changes to your plans, which can certainly be anxiety inducing. I can relate to that. My brain doesn't cope very well with changes to plans and appointments and so forth.

I just want to finish this section, so that I don't feel as if I'm leaving something while I'm in the middle of it. If that makes sense? Finish off the section and start a new one tomorrow. It's taking longer than I expected, but maybe my online study coordinator/lecturer and student support person anticipated that. It was due on Sunday, but due to my current circumstances and challenges they've given me two weeks extension. I don't like feeling as if I'm incapable.

Re: Battles

@NightFury very much so. It's just frustrating when you've got everything planned out and then something changes. Anyway nothing i can do but wait for them to call and reschedule another appointment.

That makes sense, I'm the same and hate leaving things while I'm in the middle of it. I understand you may have the feeling of being incapable but I think you are doing amazing given everything you've been through lately. I'm glad you have an extension though.
