Struggling to hold on

Struggling to hold on

I am struggling to move on I have my good days when I am kept busy the other days I am at home struggling to be around my kids they don’t listen to me they don’t care I don’t care anymore I am completely heartbroken for myself for them I can’t do this anymore I don’t want to be here I feel like my kids would be better off without me in there life I can’t even function day to day and provide them with the basic love and care they need and deserve 😭 I am useless and don’t know how to get past this horrible feeling and situation I hate the people responsible for this pain I don’t deserve this

Hi @pink_chic01

I’m really sorry you’re carrying so much pain right now

I noticed you said you don’t want to be here and that your kids would be better off without you. I just wanted to check in, are you safe right now?

While this community can offer connection and support, we’re not a crisis service and we don’t want you to have to sit with these thoughts alone. If things feel too overwhelming or you’re worried you may not be able to keep yourself safe, please reach out for immediate support through Lifeline on 13 11 14 (24/7), Suicide Call Back Service on 1300 659 467, or 000 if you’re in immediate danger.

If you can, it may also help to connect with someone you trust or a support person around you while you get through this moment. We’re glad you reached out here, and we’ll be thinking of you 💛
