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.

It's only 22⁰ here @NightFury but it feels warmer or maybe it's just me cos I'm anxious and overwhelmed.

@Captain24 a nap sounds like a good idea. I hope you can get some much needed rest sweetheart ❤️

@MissGremlin sit for a minute with me, my friend. Breathe and take a drink of that iced coffee before it leaks out the hole in your glass.

Re: Battles

Well done on hanging up that washing @MissGremlin you've reminded me that I have washing on the line to get in. It can wait until I've had my coffee.

Re: Battles

@NightFury thankyou sweet, I've been putting the washing off for the last few days. Enjoy your cuppa first and then tackle the washing.

Re: Battles

I don't have trouble doing the washing, or with hanging it out @MissGremlin but I can't seem to get my act together with getting it in off the line and folding it.

Re: Battles

@NightFury yeah putting it in the machine I find easy, hanging it up and then folding it later is what I find hard.

It's not my favourite job @MissGremlin

Re: Battles

@NightFury mine either.

I'm about half way through it, I'm finding that I'm dissociating at the moment. (I'm safe)
