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.

Things haven't been too bad today, until the shift into night time @MissGremlin

Did you spend some time puzzling today?

Re: Battles

@NightFury that night time shift can bring about alot of feelings.

I did do a bit of my puzzle but focusing was hard today. Did you get some of yours done?

Re: Battles

I tried to @MissGremlin

I felt really scattered, and I'm not sure how much I actually took in, but I kept at it for a couple of hours.

Re: Battles

I'm going for a drive tomorrow @MissGremlin to catch up with a friend. She lives about an hour away. She's going to do a tarot reading for me, then we're going to go get coffee and lunch.

Tomorrow afternoon, I have lawn bowls practice.

What about you?

Re: Battles

@NightFury that sounds awesome, I hope you have a great time together ☺️. Hope the lawn bowls training goes well also.

I don't have any plans tomorrow at all so I'll probably just work on my puzzle while having my music playing.
