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

I've been at it for two days and I'm onto week two's onboarding/orientation training tasks. @MissGremlin I have five clients on my books already and I haven't even started working with clients yet.

i came home tonight at 6. Cooked dinner, studied while it cooked, studied while eating it and then attended an online class. I had to leave class early because I just...I got emotional.

I'm trying so hard.

Re: Battles

@NightFury oh sweetheart, i hear how hard you are trying. You are truly doing so well to learn new things and already having clients on your books already is such a big thing.

I'm so proud of you for getting study done in between both cooking and eating and then attending an online class, that's honestly amazing sweet. It's ok that you had to leave early, you've done so much today and recently and sometimes it all catches up with us. But you are doing your best sweet and you should be so proud of yourself for that ❤️.
