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

No plans @MissGremlin

I need to do a few little housework jobs - like vacuuming, but I have no plans.

What about you?

Re: Battles

@NightFury my only plan is to make it through the day (I'm safe). That's how it is at the moment, fighting each and every minute to keep pushing through. It's an exhausting way to live and i so wish things were different.

I might try to clean my stove today after I've done my dishes. It's warm here so maybe I'll water my grass with Casper cos he loves playing in the water.

Re: Battles

I hear how exhausted you are @MissGremlin and how much you wish it was different.

It sounds like you have a list of things to do. Do what you can and what you need to. Be gentle on yourself, my friend.

I have to get up and feed Luna, she's staring at me and putting a little sook into her breathing. She wants her breakfast.
