Managing thoughts of suicide & self-harm

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.

@NightFury you're welcome sweet ❤️. Do you have any music playing or the TV on at the moment?

Re: Battles

The TV is on, but it's turned right down so that I can listen for noises @MissGremlin

Re: Battles

@NightFury can understand wanting to listen for noises. Is it quiet outside tonight, is there any wind or rain?

Re: Battles

No wind, but there was rain earlier. Not now though. We've had days and days of wind, so it's nice not to have it.

A motorbike went past and I almost hit the roof. @MissGremlin

Re: Battles

@NightFury it's been raining here alot tonight and the wind has picked up so it's a bit noisy outside. I bet it's glad to not have the wind after having for several days.

Oh sweet, that's understandable and very normal given what's happened.

Have you had dinner tonight and something to drink?

Re: Battles

It is nice to not have any wind @MissGremlin the wind here makes things bang and scrape, which puts me on edge anyway.

I was eating dinner when it happened, so I ate half of it. But I haven't had a lot to drink, no. I might make a cuppa tea.

Re: Battles

@NightFury i hear you, the wind makes my windows rattle.

I'm glad you got to eat a bit of dinner. A cuppa sounds like a great idea and I hope it can bring some comfort too.
