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.

Re: Battles
Hey @Dreamy, thank you for sharing your experiences with the community!
Sounds like you are going through a tough time, and it's understandable that it might bring up some heavy thoughts and feelings. You are demonstrating your strength and resilience by reaching out to your peers here on the Forums.
I just wanted to check in with you about whether you have someone you can talk to right now? Sometimes, it can be really beneficial to talk about how we're are feeling when we get thoughts like we don't want to be around.
I will pop some crisis support numbers here a well:
Lifeline: 13 11 14 or Lifeline Chat
Beyond Blue: 1300 22 4636 or Beyond Blue Webchat
1800 RESPECT: 1800 737 732, www.1800respect.org.au
Suicide call back service: 1300 659 467 or Online Counselling
Kids Helpline (up to ages 25): 1800 55 1800, http://kidshelpline.com.au/get-help/phone-counselling
If in immediate danger: 000 www.triplezero.gov.au/triple-zero/How-to-Call-000
Take care

Re: Battles
@RiverSeal. Tough really is an understatement right now.
I don't have anyone I can talk to which is why I'm reaching out here to hopefully chat to people.
Thanks for the numbers, I am not comfortable reaching out to crisis services.

Re: Battles
Hello @Dreamy and welcome to the forums.
This is a great place to find support and company when things are really tough.
Sometimes the immediate environment is also not good like when it’s a really hot day and you don’t have air conditioning (that’s my current situation), that can make things seem worse.
Do you have any go to coping strategies?
I like to do physical things, but some people like colouring, diamond art or Lego. I like to do word puzzles as do some others.
You can say as little or as much as you like on here.
I hope you find support and connection on here.

Re: Battles
Yep. Sh*tsh*w.
The dude upstairs seems to have a wicked sense of humour. Sorry sir, but it’s gotta be said.
Good to see you.
Do you know how many gremlins? 24?

Re: Battles
@Appleblossom it's been one hell of an afternoon to say the least.
One very twisted sense of humour up there 😂.

Re: Battles
Hi @Till23. No welcome needed 😂.
Not alot really needs to be said about my story that's not already known.
Connection and support is something I need and I hope to continue to have that 😊.
