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.

Oh hey @MissGremlin looks like we were writing to each other at the same time 😂. Great minds think alike 😁

@Chasingsunsets it was a salted caramel iced coffee, it's in my belly now 😋.

I just set up my Christmas tree but not by choice. If I had it my way I'd be the Grinch and cancel Christmas.

Going to a Cafe with Indi sounds lovely and I'm sure Indi will love it 😊.

As for how I'm going, I'm here and I'm existing and for this moment that's enough. Today is taking things one little step at a time.

Oh yum @MissGremlin sounded delicious, nice work re Christmas tree!! I feel like that would be a lot of work to set up and decorate!! I take my hat off to everyone that does have a tree and decorates them 🫶🙏

Do you set yours up with lights or nah?
I saw a reel the other day with this young baby throwing the Christmas balls at the tree and they all stuck on there and the caption was something like “the real way of how to decorate a Christmas tree” was so funny! Definitely how I’d like to decorate mine- just throw them all at the tree and they just stick on 😂🤭

Let me know if you wanted to talk about a pros/cons about this Christmas period as long as it would be helpful for ya.


Indi hasn’t realised I have woken up yet lol. She’s still sleeping 😅. I should get up soon 🤞

I hear you @MissGremlin, existing is enough 💛, what Dimond art are you working on at the moment or is it a surprise 😊


I’ll bounce now, just try work on getting out of bed but l hopefully be on throughout today. Talk soon 😊

@Chasingsunsets it is alot of work and even more so when one just doesn't feel chrismassy. It does have lights on it. My tree this year is stitch themed.

Haha if only it was that easy to decorate the tree 😂. Would make it so much easier.

Awww Indi still snoozing, she's so precious 😍.

Here's the one I'm working on at the moment.

Re: Battles

I’ll wait for your pic @MissGremlin 😊

oh stitch themed!! That is epic!! I am very curious what your tree looks like!!

I was wondering what your motivation was for setting up and decorating your tree was (obviously you don’t have to share), it takes a lot of effort and think it’s so awesome it’s stitch themed !! It sounds like something overrode the strong feelings for a bit- re your part dislike for Christmas, you moved through it and created the tree!! Have I got this right? Fantastic job my friend 💙

Re: Battles

@Chasingsunsets I'll see if I can post a pic once it's all set up.

As I said setting it up wasn't my choice, I can't say anything more than that I'm sorry.

Re: Battles

Oh wow @MissGremlin that Dimond art you made is fantastic!! A Border Collie right? So cute!! That would have taken awhile!! Good job 😎

In response to: Re: Battles

Re: Battles

@Chasingsunsets I've only done the head so far, still have the body to go. I know it's hard to see in the pic though. But yes I believe it's a border collie 😊.

Re: Battles

Ohhh look forward to a pic @MissGremlin, I hope in some way you could get some good feeling about this tree! Whether it’s accomplishment that you were able to construct it, maybe being able to give joy to someone else when they see it. I wonder if anything comes up for you? (Totally fine if you don’t want to go there)

I think it’s amazing you have constructed it @MissGremlin!! Just wanted to share what I have felt reading about your construction 😀

I am going to bounce now but look forward to chatting a bit later my friend
