Thank you but do go to bed if you need to.

It's a very long time since my thoughts were as dark as this and my coping strategies are, well, fairly rusty.
Can't sleep, hurting myself, not eating probably, it's not good.
Just !!!! I can't explain properly.

You don't need to explain it properly HL ............ we all probably know how you are feeling and how hard it is to put words to it but just try to use this place as somewhere to come to relax and chat .... and to feel 'normal' again :A :A

Hovel can you call a friend to stay over? can you stay with a friend tonight? so you are not alone?

You can ring the Samaritans. They are open all night if it helps you not to self harm. They are very good.

Here is a link click on your local branch and someone will help. http://www.samaritans.org/talk_to_someone/find_my_local_branch/a-z_of_branches.aspx

Please dont harm yourself ok. You deserve better and they are a good way to cope and stop.

Not alone - exOH in the house. We've just split up and are now in seperate bedrooms trying to sort everything out - me moving out, sorting out our debts, me claiming benefit, I could go on.

I won't go into detail about the self harm (it's in my diary) but if I can't deal with things in any other way it does help.
I do take care of myself afterwards.

Hovel Lady what's your fave food?

Anything involving eggs.
Recently I made an unsupervised omelette.

When i feel really down I post on here and just being with nice people lifts me. You are not alone you know and there is no need to punish or hurt yourself. What strategies have your doctor, nurse, psychologist suggested to make you feel better? Can you do anything like ring a friend. The Samaritans are fantastic and will help. Talking is a good way to release tension and much less painful than self harm. Will you ring them or a friend?

Goodnight Boult, Thank you for your company and do sleep well. I am going at midnight too. What went into the omlette? Sounds interesting. I bought some cool eggs today and I fancy something interesting to cook at the weekend?

I haven't seen my doctor about this yet. She's on holiday - have an appointment next week.
Things have been very difficult these last few weeks but I've kept on top of it until today when the stuff in my diary happened.
Now, I'm falling apart and trying to deal with feelings I haven't had for years.
Not sure I could talk to anyone but typing is working well.

When you feel low the slightest thing can set you off. You must remember that MSE is a nice place and not take 1% criticism personally and focus on happy things 99% of stuff(said the pot calling the kettle black - you wont believe the palaver i created tonight. Luckily a kind person sorted it!!!)

I think you must ring your dr for an emergency appointment tomorrow morning and they will help. Depression can be controlled and you can get your life back.
