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.

Re: Battles

@NightFury oh I hear you sweet and I'm feeling the same way. We can sit together with those feelings. I'm safe also.

I'm sitting on my bed and have only gotten up to do the bare essentials. I'm going to put my kettle on too, are you gonna make a cuppa before laying on the couch?

Re: Battles

I would love to sit with you for a bit.

And that was my intention @MissGremlin I would go straight to bed, but I'm stubborn and if I go to bed now and let myself sleep, I won't sleep tonight. So...coffee and couch it is.

Re: Battles

@NightFury rough. I'm feeling flat and crappy. Think I'm having withdrawals from the medication.

Re: Battles

Either that or your body's exhausted from what you've been going through @MissGremlin I'm sorry to hear.

Re: Battles

@NightFury that's possible too. Just trying to be gentle with myself and rest when I can.

Hugs @MissGremlin

We had a quiet day at work. No teaching today due to a low number of students attending. So, I did paper work and computer stuff all day.

Thankfully.
