Do you have any distractions?
I am glad you posted cos that way people can try and advise you on the best step to move past the urges.
How are you feeling now?
Sometimes when I feel like that O go text or skype a friend, listen to some happy music or go to sleep.
Keep posting. And remember stay strong ♡

Do what usually makes you happy. Then try to find out the reason of your thoughts. If you need some help with it, talk to your friends, post here or go to a therapy. Only after getting rid of the problem, you'll free from such thoughts.
Don't give up!
Good luck.

Sounds like you were rather overwhelmed last night, but a massive well done for reaching out for support on here, that is an amazing first step to take, I'm proud of you How are you doing today? *hug* What coping strategies or distractions did you try and use when you felt the emotions building up?
Best wishes,

How are things today? Have you found any new ideas to distract yourself?
It must be frustrating having to wait until Monday for news from CMHT, especially as you seem to be finding it difficult at the moment. If you find yourself struggling to keep yourself safe, it's worth remembering that you can talk to the Samaritans at any time.
Hope you're okay
How are you? I hope this week hasn't been too difficult. Have you heard from CMHT?
