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.

Re: Battles

In your opinion, am I right to feel weird about this @MissGremlin?

My brother invited me to his step daughter's dance concert (she's 6) but is asking me to keep it a secret because he and his wife are angry with my Mum and Dad and don't want them to go.

Re: Battles

@NightFury i think your feelings are valid sweet. Are you comfortable sharing your feelings with your brother on the situation?

Re: Battles

Nah, I'm not comfortable sharing how it makes me feel with him @MissGremlin it's complicated.

@REDLINEZ750 love your memes, I can definitely relate to the one about running away as an adult!

Good evening @MissGremlin,

How are you feeling today?

I am really glad that someone was there for you to co-regulate with, it sounds like this dream has been a really vulnerable one for you for some time... 💛

Oh, you absolutely deserve someone showing up for you and caring about you enough to help you find the right support. I am really happy she is doing this.

I think sharing your honest feelings and experiences is so important. As long as they know you are safe, it's more than okay.

How are your teeth feeling today? 🥺

Hello @AuntGlow, I'm feeling vulnerable, emotional and fragile. At the moment my thoughts are very intense and urges are strong (I'm safe), I'm sitting in my bed and listening to an audiobook with Casper by my side.

My tooth is very sore and my gum is swollen 😞. I couldn't muster up the courage to try and ring again today to see if I can get help to cover the cost of the dentist appointment.

How are you going?

Good evening @NightFury,

How are you feeling? 💛

I can't believe you owned your own PT business, that's so bloody cool!!

I am so sorry to hear about your injury... injuries can absolutely throw us off and it's awful. 😣

Though, I am glad you had a nice time with your friend, I feel like movement and connection are such wonderful regulation strategies.

I am glad the person you spoke to was helpful, that must have felt like a huge sigh of relief.

Have you been watching The Witcher again tonight? I have been watching Selling Sunset... Reality TV, it's somehow very comforting. 😂

PS: Shall we talk on your thread or here? I don't mind! Just checking in with what feels okay for you. ☺️

Re: Battles

My thread? I know @MissGremlin won't mind @AuntGlow but I feel weird and don't want to block up Dreamy's thread with my stuff.
