Coping mechanisms?

[Vombie12]

Hey, just looking for a little bit of support. I'm sure many understand this feeling- I want to kill myself rn, it all feels so overhwelmed and I feel too tired to even try and cheer myself up or do anything rn, but I want to try and get out of it and at least stabilize myself so it doesn't feel so overbaring. So, any coping mechanisms?

But I'm talking actual ones, not just a stupid 'write your feelings' like thanks but doesn't help and usually just makes it worse. So, I'm open to anything, just reccomend away. Thanks <3

Find something you enjoy like for example in my case it's computergames and anime. I anchor myself to life with those things and it kinda works. I still feel like shit but it help a little maybe such small things accumulate and are enough?!

shocking my nervous system with temperature (rubbing ice cubes on my face, running my hands under hot water)

Exercise is the only thing that leads to physiological lasting dopamine specifically because it sucks while you're doing it.

Cold water plunges or showers can help for the same reason.

That and doing something creative with a result you can see.

At least try to find something engaging enough to take your mind off of it.
