Hey Dazzlar,
Welcome to the Forums, and thank you for sharing a bit about yourself here. It sounds like you've been coping with a lot of really difficult things, and we're really glad you could be open here. It can be a really powerful step towards feeling better.
We can hear there've been times when you've tried to end your life. We're so sorry to hear that, thank you for letting us know, and for taking the step of talking about it for the first time. Another step we'd really recommend is reaching out to someone in healthcare, on a counsellor about it this. That could be the GP, or a mental health professional.
You would be so, so welcome to reach out to the Beyond Blue Support Serivce to talk this through, we’re on 1300 22 4636, and you can
reach us online here. There are also our friends over at the
Suicide Call Back Service on 1300 659 467, or
Lifeline on 13 11 14. Another option is
Counselling Online, who offer support for people affected by alcohol use. All of these options are free and confidential.
This is a really safe space, and we're sure we'll hear from the community at some point. There are people here who've coped with thoughts and urges like this who might be able to share with you what helped them.
Thank you for sharing your story here, Dazzlar. We're here to help.
Kind regards,
Mod Support
