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.

Re: Battles

I understand what you mean, please know that you did all the right things. @MissGremlin 🥰

Getting through day-by-day is more than okay. I think right now, it's actually the best approach. This time of year is hard enough as it is.

What will self-care/regulation look like for you over the next 24 hours? And can you start exploring some of these strategies now?

Yes!! I saw. I am so glad you have a grounding activity to turn to. 💛

Thankyou @AuntGlow ❤️.

I'm not sure, I have a box that I made up that has different things that I can do and fidget toys in it aswell. At the moment it's mostly just my colouring and diamond art that I've been doing.

Re: Battles

Ah, yes! Your box!! I love it. Is the diamond art made with rhinestones or paints? (both would be cool!) @MissGremlin

Would you feel comfortable sharing how you came up with your box with @Captain24? No pressure at all to connect if you don't want to, but I know you have been feeling a similiar way tonight and I would love to know you both have support whilst we are gone. 🫶

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow they are little gems i guess. I have my paintings aswell but I haven't done that for a long time now.

I'm happy to chat to @Captain24 about it ☺️. I'll be here tomorrow to support anyone that's around and wants some company.

Re: Battles

That's sooo cool. I have a friend who rhinestones heaps of costumes all the time - I don't know how she has the patience for it haha but they look amazing. Have you ever put the gems on clothing or items around the house? @MissGremlin 💖

I am so glad to hear that. The community will be very lucky to have you around.

Re: Battles

@AuntGlow how awesome. I have done quite a few designs on some tshirts over the years but nothing overly fancy.

Awww thankyou ❤️.

I hope you have a lovely Christmas and enjoy your break ❤️.

Re: Battles

Awwww @Cuddlebear my sweet, you might be alone physically tomorrow but I'll be right here with you ❤️.

Just knowing you'll be around and I'll be able to talk to you will help so much.

I giggled when I read about wishing you could pass your details on to me, oh how I wish that was possible. I can just imagine us talking on the phone for hours 😂.

How's Wilbur doing?

Re: Battles

@MissGremlin *support button not working!

We are going to have each other here virtually and I am looking forward to it!

Im so glad you got a giggle from saying I wish we could have each others contacts. We would have such awesome conversations and little adventures.

Wilbur is going on I went to emergency vet and he has drops for his ear infection. I’m really relieved as infection only started today and I didn’t want to wait until my vet was open again. He’s snuggled next to me in bed at the moment. He’s been playful and he is eating and drinking plus toileting all ok.
