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.

I need a rest week @MissGremlin just to start with.

I don't know about deserving it, but I need it.

@NightFury i hear you and that's so understandable. There's only a couple of weeks left of school to get through then it's holidays.

@rav3n yes sleep is very much needed to function somewhat normally.

It really came in fast and I didn't recognise it at first but then once I did i kept trying to justify it by telling myself that I was shutting people out so that they wouldn't get hurt if I wasn't here anymore. It really is minute by minute, some of those minutes I find myself having to really assess my safety and be aware if I'm at risk cos things can change so suddenly. (I'm safe in this moment). The community here is amazing and I'm so grateful for it. Just knowing that there's so many people that care and that are willing to listen and offer support really does mean so much.

Thankyou for all that you do here for myself and everyone ❤️. That goes for all the team also.

Just picture me mashing the support button (which ain't working for me tonight) dear @MissGremlin cos this is really nice to read!

Also the way that you @NightFury and @Shaz51 are all out here just exuding kindness and showing up for each other and being understanding with each others' needs just.... fills me with joy! 😍

Hope things do turn around for you soon hun, and that lighter days await all of us eh? 💜

@Jynx ahhhh that support button really needs to get it's act together 😂.

I really love how supportive the community here is and I'm so glad to be a part of it.

Today really has been so hard, I have had tears almost constantly all day. But it wasn't just little emotions, like I haven't cried this hard since losing my dog last year. My eyes are so red and puffy and my head hurts so much from the migraine, I've only had just over 3 hours of sleep last night. I'm so exhausted but I can't switch off to sleep. I've had moments today where my thoughts got so strong and loud and it was overwhelming but I held Casper close until they passed. I feel so empty and numb but still emotional at the same time like I thought about making something to eat and got all teary over it. (I'm safe). I'm just sitting on my lounge in silence with Casper nearby while I keep connected here and I'm chatting to my friend.

Thankyou, i definitely need those hugs at the moment ❤️

I'm tapping out tonight. @MissGremlin @Jynx @Shaz51

I'm safe. I'm going to curl up in bed with Luna. If things start to feel worse then I'll reach out to a service if need be.

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin I'm sorry that it's all so hard right now hun. The whiplash of apathy to overwhelming emotion can be a tough slog, so I'm proud of you for holding on.

Dropping off some 💜 to all before I skedaddle!
