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.

@NightFury i hear you sweet and that's totally understandable.

Hoping the weather picks up a bit and that everyone has a good time and stays safe.

@Chasingsunsets it's ok, we all have our own lives outside of here.

Haha oh I definitely need it for my car given that she often doesn't want to start 😂.

I hear you on it being a rough month and the next. Hoping things go as ok as they can for you and know that we are always here for you ❤️.

Hey @MissGremlin,

How are you feeling today? 💛

Hello @AuntGlow, I'm really not ok today, I'm not myself and I'm feeling emotional and fragile. I'm safe for the moment though.

Re: Battles

Thank you for letting me know @MissGremlin. What is making you feel emotional and fragile? Maybe we can move through it together? 🫶

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow not having anyone in my life. I get it, I'm too much for people, I try not to be. I wish I didn't struggle so much with my mental health maybe then people would like me. I'm hurting so much. I'm trying so hard to keep fighting but I feel like I'm barely hanging on 😞. I'm safe and I'm doing what I can.

Re: Battles

I understand where you're coming from and this would be such a painful feeling to experience... @MissGremlin.

I am wondering if we can sit with some counter-evidence? For example, you're not too much for us at all, we all want to be here for you, and we also all really like you as you are! 😍

@NightFury @Chasingsunsets @Shaz51

Can you think of anything else that might help you to challenge this thought? It can be something really small.

Oh, and shall we work on your safety plan? 💛

Re: Battles

You're not too much for me @MissGremlin not at all, but I can relate to feeling that way about myself.

It helps me to be reminded that maybe actually you're just right for the right kind of people.

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow it just hurts so much when i try so hard to just have connections. I'm grateful to have this space here don't get me wrong but in the real world I have nothing. I have tears streaming down my face again, things are spiralling so fast and I'm tired of having to go through it. I'm not just exhausted in the sense of not having enough sleep, my whole body and mind is exhausted, my soul is exhausted, I feel like i have nothing left to give. I feel so empty and numb inside but yet I feel so much emotion and pain. I'm not even sure if any of this makes sense, I'm sorry if it doesn't. (Again I'm safe).

I'm really not sure how to challenge it right now. I wouldn't even know where to start.

If we do work on a safety plan now, can we just do it bit by bit please?
