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.

Hello @Flutterbug9 sweetheart, I'm sorry last night was a bad night and I'm really hoping that tonight will be better for you.

I'm glad the psychiatrist made contact with you and I relate to not answering private numbers. It's good that she does telehealth appointments, crying in front of people makes me feel uncomfortable and vulnerable so I understand.

Thankyou for the update sweet. Sending you lots of love and hugs ❤️

I have to cook a frittata in the morning so I can have it for lunch at work. I have to clean my house in the morning as well. Sort out the kitchen bench so I can put my laptop there for my psych appointment at 1. Then in the afternoon it’s just waiting for my best friend to come around. So not much really. @MissGremlin

Re: Battles

I've been feeling pretty down over the last few days. @MissGremlin @Captain24

But they have been busy at least. Yesterday, I had an early morning phone call from my brother asking me to look after my neice, I had her until late afternoon. Today, I did all the jobs I was supposed to do yesterday - the lawns, the washing etc.
