Triggering (SI/OD) - Complete failure - what's the point?

Supposed to be back at work today after having 2 weeks off. Just can't face it and all those people. The mask isn't ready yet. How pathetic. What's the point in carrying on as work is the only useful thing in my life, the only thing for which I am of value to other people.

Just need to OD. I need the shame to end. I can't do this anymore. Why should I keep fighting as I obviously have lost the fight.

Should I call the crisis team and let them know what a failure I a?. I don't think I can stay safe today. Maybe if I just try SH to start with?

Hiya there im very sorry that your having such a difficult time right now. *Gives you a big hug* Everything will be ok, i know that what your going through isnt easy but it doesnt mean that you cant get through this. Could you talk to us about what it is thats made you feel like this? Has something triggered you? Do you have any support at all? (If you have one) have you spoken to your counseller how your feeling? Your not pathetic at all.

If your extremly unsafe which it sounds like you are then i really think you should go to A&E. Im so sorry for the pain that your going through. Slipping up is part of recovery and we all have slip ups but this doesnt mean that you have failed and that you should give up on recovery. You havent lost the fight at all, you may feel that you have but i promise you you havent.

You can get through this please dont give up please keep fighting through this. Things wont be like this forever, things will get better. Be gentle with yourself try not to be too hard on yourself as that will only create problems. We are all here for you and we will support you for as long as you need it. We all care about you so much. No one wants to see you get hurt anymore than what you already are, that includes me other people here, and your friends and family. Please dont od it really isnt worth it it causes so much damage to vital organs and will just end up creating even more problems, making things worse than what they already are.

Have you thought about writing down your thoughts and feelings? Its important that if you do decide to write down your thoughts and feelings that you combine both the positive things and the negative things together so that you dont end up writing down just the negative things on there own. Make sure that you keep safe, none of us want to see you get hurt any more than what you already are you dont deserve it.

Please keep distracting yourself as much as you possibly can, there are lots of things that you can try here are some of them, listening to music, doing jobs to keep you busy, watching a movie, going for a walk and posting on the fun and distractions forum. Please keep talking to us, you dont have to go through this all on your own, we are here for you. Please take care its important that you look after yourself.

Take care best wishes Ian

You're not a failure. Why do you feel so ashamed? You're asking for help. That takes an awesome amount of courage.



My husband is my best friend.

In forgiving others, we are not exonerating them. They may not deserve exoneration. Rather, in forgiving others we are giving up our anger over the fact that what happened is not what "should" have happened or that our life is not the way it "should" have been.
