Re: cant cope with feelings OD SI TRIGGER

Atomics - if your feeling suicidal and/in distress try befrienders.org They have a crisis line you can call. So check out the link please.

Your other option is to go to emergency and/or to your doctor. That way you may be able to see someone to get help.

I do have to say - your husband telling you it ok to SI if you have to is not ok. What are some of the ways you can take care of yourself. What are your outside supports like? Are friends around. There are other ways to get through tough times then hurting yourself.

Take care of yourself

Re: cant cope with feelings OD SI TRIGGER

Even if your feeling like it getting that strong there are always other options besides SI. You may want to write a self-care list for yourself. All the ways you can look after yourself ....like eating if you haven't eaten, breathing, putting lights on if its too dim in the room, phoning a friend..... All the things on the list need to gentle and good for you. Simply going down the list and doing everything on it, and going through it a second time if necessary. By then hopefully the urge has passed.
