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.

@AuntGlow i know hospital is there aswell as mental health triage. I'm just trying to keep pushing through the best I can.

I'm listening to Harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban.

Candles i struggle with cos the flickering can trigger seizures for me and rain sounds have to be in real life otherwise they just frustrate me. Yeah I know I'm weird 😂

@tyme this is where I'm stuck at the moment cos it's never been empty like this. It usually just stays somewhere in the middle. But things I used to enjoy have become chores to keep myself distracted so they aren't filling my cup.

I just want to say, thank you for hanging around and being here. @MissGremlin

I'm about to go to bed soon, but I'm sure others will enjoy your company. That way, I hope you get the connection to see you through tonight.

Take care.

Remember, please call someone if you need to chat to anyone.

And your forums friends are here too, remember that. @MissGremlin 💛

Ah, great choice!! I should rug up and re-watch the movies. Do you ever watch them? Or do you prefer the audiobooks?

hahah that makes sense!! Not weird at all. And we definitely don't want you having a seizure, so it's best to take care of your health first.

What about a sunset lamp? I think they are sooo pretty.

@AuntGlow i know and I'm always thankful for the community here. I've struggled to hold a conversation but at the same time need the connection, it's tricky to navigate.

I love the movies but they aren't on any of the streaming apps at the moment and i can't be bothered with my DVDs. This is the first time I've listened to the audiobooks.

I much prefer to just sit in darkness. Oh I brought a mini weighted teddy today, I want to go hunting for more of them.

Re: Battles

They had weighted animals at Aldi late last year. A member posted it here. I think a sloth, dog and something else.

I have 2 weighted blankets including a lavender scented one. They are really awesome to sleep with.

Anyway, have a good night. I'm off now @MissGremlin

Re: Battles

@tyme yes they did, I got a bunny one.

I also have several weighted blankets including one that I sleep with.

Catch you next time ☺️
