The thoughts won’t go away

Got really bad thoughts tonight and done everything to get rid of them but nothing has been working 😕
I spoke to Samaritans and shout, I’ve drawn and done poems, I’ve put music on and tried to distract myself with tv shows but nothing is shutting the thoughts up
Just really hoping I can be safe until I fall asleep, forcing myself to stay laying in bed.

I think it’s just the overwhelming amount of thoughts that’s are making me spiral 🙁
Sorry

I can’t hurt myself because all sharps across the house are locked away including sharp kitchen appliances and other things that I could harm with so I’m as safe as I can be

Sometimes when the people most like you don't love you, it is a hurt that can cause the greatest pain, and this pain can lead you to hate everything.
