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

Hello @holdinghope5, thankyou for letting us know that you are looking into the technical issue. I didn't worry about saying anything sooner cos it usually seems to resolve itself.

Unfortunately this isn't one where I can send screenshots given that I'm not getting any email notifications at all 😂.

Anyway thankyou for all the work that you do behind the scenes ☺️

Hello @NightFury my sweet, i think the same goes for you given I'd seen you online during the night.

I'm feeling a mixture of things this morning, not really liking it to be honest but I'm safe. I just made a coffee and I'm sitting on my bed.

Re: Battles

I came on looking for someone to have a chat to, while I calmed down a little, and I saw you were having a rough night @MissGremlin I didn't reach out because I didn't want to be a bother in the early hours of the morning.

Re: Battles

@NightFury oh sweetheart never hesitate to reach out to me. Honestly if I'm having a hard night the best thing for me is to help others if I can. It's what I do in groups on Facebook cos they are around the world so there's always someone on. You have never and will never bother me, I'm always here for you ❤️

Re: Battles

Thank you for saying that. @MissGremlin I'll try to remember it next time that particular thought comes up for me.

I got through it and eventually went back to sleep. Luna helped.

Do you plans for today?

Re: Battles

@NightFury I'm glad you had Luna there and you were eventually able to go back to sleep.

I don't have any plans today but do need to head to the shops at some stage.

What about you?
