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.

I'm having a cup of chai @MissGremlin because it's kind of like a hug in a mug and half watching TV.

Re: Battles

Sounds like your body needed it @MissGremlin

No, school's still disrupted. We still have some kids attending, but we're not having formal school days. This morning, I sat with a handful of kids and we drew and listened to music. I drew Sailor Moon. It was rhe firat drawing I've done in a long time.

Re: Battles

@NightFury hopefully school is back to normal soon. But it does sound nice to have some quieter and more relaxed days. Oh I'm so glad you did some drawing, I've been doing my colouring the last couple of nights which I haven't done for ages either.
