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.

Re: Battles

The language barrier is hard. I've experienced that before @MissGremlin so...can you email the place, or phone them back and let them know what's happening re the language barrier? Maybe they can match you with someone more appropriate to your needs?

Or alternatively, make a call or an appointment with your GP, explain the language barrier and ask for a referral to a different place?

Re: Battles

I wanted to go to bed at 7 pm, but I'm not tired. @MissGremlin it's just that restlessness from today. I'm confused about how I feel and what I want. So, I'm laying on the floor watching TV instead.

Re: Battles

@NightFury i hear you sweet, it sounds tough. Laying on the floor and watching TV is ok.

I'm in my bed but very overwhelmed and struggling to self regulate, I'm feeling everything all at once. (I'm safe for now). I am listening to an audiobook and trying to do my colouring.
