I hear you @Snowie .
I cannot tell you what to do, but I want you to know that your feelings are valid.
Finding a space between you and your emotions by looking at your emotion from a spectator's perspective, often helps me. I may be feeling very upset about something, but if I notice this feeling's shape, size, colour, weight, texture etc... I can eventually find a space.
It is in this space that I am in control and can make better choices which inform my behaviour.
Be comforted to know you can also reach out to other services such as:
Lifeline: 13 11 14
Suicide call back service: 1300 659 467
Samaritans: 135 247
If in immediate danger: 000
I'm sure you know these services, but thought I'd include the numbers to make it easier.
Hugs,
tyme

Saw my psych today @creative_writer so that helped a bit.
It is hard when we are on edge. Taking it moment by moment sounds like a good idea.
Have you been able to do something nice for yourself today?
