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.

It is cosy @MissGremlin

Bowls was okay. We lost. I wanted to be curled up in bed, rather than playing bowls, but I did play well. I got really sunburnt.

How was your day?

@NightFury I'm proud of you for going and you did your best. It doesn't matter about winning or losing, the point is did you have fun? Ouch to the sunburn though, it's never nice.

Hmm, I wonder what part of you is having this thought right now?

I am also wondering what that part of you might need most this weekend? If you can let me know, we can work on some strategies together tomorrow? ☺️

I understand why this would be frustrating and scary. When is your next appointment with your GP?

Also, thank you for letting me know you are safe. 🫶

@AuntGlow i don't know what part is feeling it, everything is so messed up in my body. Things feel all over the place which is another thing I'm trying to deal with, I know i can't share it here but it's hard to sit with alone. Feelings in my body that come about when certain thoughts happen.

I'll try to think about it but I'm really not sure right now.

I don't even remember when my next appointment it, i just wait to get a notification for it. I think it's either Monday or Tuesday.

You know it gets hard to say it though especially when i don't feel it.

Hello @MissGremlin,

AuntGlow had to leave for the evening, but wants you to know she will be back to chat tomorrow. ☺️

I can hear things are feeling tough this evening and it sounds like connecting with Lifeline or Suicide Callback Service will be really helpful.

Does that sound like something you could try now? We just want to make sure you're safe. 💙

Re: Battles

Hello @holdinghope5, thankyou for letting me know.

Only one of those is an option for me but I'll try to if I feel i need to.

I'm trying my best to stay safe.

Have you been able to do some colouring in or have some cuddles with Casper? Oh! Maybe some Buffy or Angel might be a good idea too! 💙 @MissGremlin
