Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Re: My Mosaic

The same @Captain24 unfortunately things are the same today. Trying to survive each moment but it’s hard. Nearly came close last night

Re: My Mosaic

Im sorry you feel this way @Bow .

That fact that you are still here is a good thing. Can you look at last night a different way? You came close but didn’t go through with it. Obviously something was keeping you here. What was it? Can you focus your thoughts onto your reason for still being here?

Know that you are valued on here especially by me and plenty of others. Im sure you are valued in your outside life too.

You are strong and CAN get through this

Re: My Mosaic

dearest @Bow, I'm so glad you made it through the evening, but I'm sorry these thoughts are still with you. Was there something in particular you did that got you through the night? You called a phone line and tried webchat last night, but was there anything else?

And like you said, surviving moment to moment is hard, but its how we get through our darkest moments. When the thoughts come up, I like the idea of "keeping safe for now". So when the thoughts come up, trying something to keep me safe for now.

@Captain24 and I are sitting with you ❤️

I lay in bed listening to hold music @Former-Member by the time I eventually got through I was too sleepy to talk 😩

I thought my psychologist might of called me back today… but she hasn’t.

i just can’t do this. Can’t live like this.

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Bow, I'm so sorry things are this bad right now. It must be scary and overwhelming. I have been there and know how dark it can be ❤️

Can you try calling your psychologist again this afternoon? What other supports can you reach out to?

From what you're saying, you're feeling quite unsafe and I encourage you to reach out to any crisis services you usually access to get support that we can't provide here on the forums. Would you be up for telling me who you feel comfy reaching out to today?

Sitting with you ❤️

Re: My Mosaic

I stupidly waited around for my case manager to call me this afternoon like she said she would and she didn’t 😩

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

I’m so sorry they didn’t call @Bow .

How’s things going?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

The same @Captain24

I’m not sure what to do anymore. The thoughts and stuff that is going on round in my head scare me. I can’t keep doing this. I just can’t.
