Hey @Lisnowy I am really glad to see you on the forums reaching out... just wanted to check you're feeling safe today? formaggio

Re: Hopeless

I don't feel safe every day, always looking for an easy way out!

I've just sent you an email checking in.

Re: Hopeless

Hey @Lisnowy 

 

What does safe feel like for you?  For different people, safe can mean different things such as the feeling of part of a community or having a social structure where they feel protected by friends and family. 

 

What is it that missing that causes you to feel unsafe?

 

Cheers

Re: Hopeless

Hi @Lisnowy just thought I would check-in and see how you are doing? It sounds like you had a rough morning. Let me know how you are travelling

Re: Hopeless

I'm reading a module on building self compassion, it really makes sense,rather than beat myself up, treat myself as I would treat someone that is going through what I am going through, wish I had been given this a long time ago

Re: Hopeless

Hey it's good you reached out here for help and support. I know that it can seem really difficult on your dark days, I've been there. I held onto the fact that it has to get better at some point. Take one day at a time, one minute at a time if you have to. You can do this! 

Re: Hopeless

I so wish there was an easy way to end my life
