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.

Thank you for letting me know that you are safe. @MissGremlin 💛

Oh, that sounds so, so tough... how are you nurturing this part of you tonight?

Sometimes we just have to allow ourselves to feel what we are feeling fully, then we can access the positives more easefully.

I am glad you are reaching out to your friends here.

Have you been chatting to your in-person connections and supports this week at all?

I am doing well! I am looking forward to Halloween show I am seeing on Friday. Do you like dressing up or decorating?

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow I've put myself to bed with Casper. Things are intense and I'm so disappointed at an outcome i received when I lodged a complaint with a crisis service. I just have those feelings of I don't matter, I'm not worth it, noone cares about me, I'm too much, I shouldn't be here etc. It's tough to sit with but right now that's all I can do. Again just making sure it's known that I'm safe.

I chatted to my friend today which was lovely and she helps to take my mind off of things.

Glad to hear you are doing well. The Halloween show sounds great, I hope you enjoy it. I'm not one for dressing up or decorating.

@Chasingsunsets sorry I didn't respond earlier. Sometimes my brain gets overwhelmed with long posts as I can't comprehend things so I have to reply to each section individually, scrolling up and down constantly 😂.

I have clove oil and I tried to find it with no success sadly 😞.

Casper is very quick at learning things and i find it fun to teach him. Thankyou ❤️.

Haha awww Indi doing burrito sounds so cute 😍.

I really do hope they get on to fixing it soon.

Casper rarely barks but he is very vocal with other noises, like he tries to talk to you especially when he gets very excited 😂. But he does have a very deep bark when he decides to use it. I had to laugh this morning when I pulled up next to a bus and he randomly started growling at it 😂.

Flies drive me nuts, I honestly can't stand them. Nothing like a bit of extra protein for breakfast 😂. But thankfully they all avoided my mouth.

Hope your day went well.

@Chasingsunsets things are tough at the moment. Trying to do the best i can but feeling rather defeated. (I'm safe). Laying on my bed with Casper resting his head on me and I've got Buffy on, have tears sitting on the edge of wanting to come out but I'm holding them back.

Sitting with you my friend with the best soft tissues if you need em 🫶

Casper sounds like he is just where he needs to be and great you have a movie on 😊

Re: Battles

Thankyou @Chasingsunsets ❤️.

He's never far from me, that I'm glad of. The show is just a background noise for me at the moment while I'm chatting to a crisis service.

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin Sounds particularly rough tonight but good to know you are taking the steps to speak with someone. I tried the other day to get in contact with one of them however their chat service was offline so not sure what was happening then, haven’t had that happen before.

Let me know what you’d find helpful from me tonight 💛

Thinking of you my friend

Re: Battles

@Chasingsunsets oh that's frustrating. I've had it happen before where I've been unable to get through for hours which isn't helpful when you need to talk to someone. My chat just ended with the service.

I'm just trying to keep myself distracted until I can fall asleep.

Did you end up looking for a new pop socket?

Thankyou ❤️
