Tomorrow my husband has to work all day...on a Saturday
 . What can I do to avoid spending the entire day in tears and to prevent extremely suicidal intrusive thoughts? Please give me suggestions; I need a break from this hopelessness, misery, derperation. I just need a break from this saddness. Thank you!

First and foremost I hope to see you in the Bipolar support chat yeehaaaaaa
 What about something fun with your kid .... ice skating ... I'm thinking, choose an activity where you join him .... even if you don't want to - do something that will probably make you laugh in the long run .... or go do something just for yourself, start by going out somewhere for a mid morning breakfast - even if it's just toast and coffee - make it a day about YOU |

I agree with Hooligan, make it a day to spoil yourself. This distraction just might fight off the intrusive thoughts. You need something that takes your mind off the negative thoughts. Is there anyone who can come visit? Being alone would be difficult for you at the moment. Hope everything goes ok and that you stay safe. If you come close to believing that you are about to act on these intrusive thoughts please go to the hospital or call a crisis line. Be your own best friend.

Take the kids to the park. Have a picnic lunch. Then take the kids to the craft store and buy a $1 wood puzzle. Have them make it and paint it for father's day. If they're really little dip their hand in paint and let them play with the toy to paint it. do not go home before your husband gets off work. If you're out with the family you're not around things that you can hurt your self with. Maybe suprized your husband with a picnic lunch. Take the kids to the local swimming spot.

Could you have anyone come over, just so you won't be alone with the kids? I can understand how you feel. I'm worse when I'm alone, with the suicidal thoughts and stuff. I hope so far you're having a good day! Or, because of father's day, could you take the kids and visit your dad?

Go to an animal shelter and pet the dogs and cats...it's free and you would be spreading the love.

ALOHA Cashcart,
Im so glad you posted as I am having the same issue today (and tomorrow). My partner is gone for two-weeks and last weekend was HORRIBLE...never got out of bed or had a moment of relief from the thoughts all weekend long. Im trying to make this weekend better so I WILL do some little chores and commit to calling an old friend. Thanks for the inspiration!
