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.

Hey @MissGremlin @NightFury how are you both going, surviving the heat ok?

More Lego this evening? 😊

Hello @Jynx, today has been tough for me. I had my phone appointment with my counsellor just before, there was so much to talk about since my last appointment and it was alot of heavy conversations. Today is a month since my niece took her life and it also would have been her 18th birthday today so that's hitting hard (I'm safe). The temperature has finally started dropping here thankfully.

Not sure about doing Lego tonight, depends on how we both feel.

How are you going?

@MissGremlin oh that is really hard hun, yeah bet they were some heavy chats. Did you get a lot out of the session?

Hope you're taking it slow and being gentle with yourself today 💜

Hey @MissGremlin just wanted to pop in and let you know that the skin check went well. The doctor was super gentle with me and allowed me to put in a boundary with where I was comfortable with her checking and where I wasn't. It was still super uncomfortable and I was still super anxious. She picked up on it almost straight away and let me know what she was going to do before she did it and tried to make small talk to help me relax.

@Jynx no Lego tonight. I'm sitting at the bowls club looking after my two and a half year old niece.

@Jynx today's session was really just me being able to talk about everything that's been bottled up since our last appointment.

I am trying to take things slowly but being gentle with myself really isn't coming easily today though.

@NightFury I'm really glad it went well and that the doctor was gentle with you and allowed you to put in the boundary. I'm so proud of you for getting through it sweet ❤️.

Hope you've been enjoying the time with your niece ☺️
