How far are you from reaching your breaking point?

Poll - Total Votes: 22
What breaking point? Life is good right now.
I'm one bad day away from giving up on life.
I'm halfway between the first 2 options.

I made a decision to stop being affected by minor stresses that life throws my way. Of course I feel a little sad and frustrated at times but I just allow myself to feel it, give it a name and then I move on. Problems don't feel as big that way. 😊

Im tired of being tested,but im not sure that i have a "breaking point" i was taught how to ebdure survive andvptodper. I can do without i know how to survive outdoors. There will always be returnsbles to gather i can survive on a loaf of bread a week and 1lb of meat so thats sbout $10.50 . 14$ if i want mayonaisse. My breaking point was reached twice already but i came back stronger with a better plan. Now youd have to kill me to truly break me. Thats happened 3 times already too; so. Then i rely on family.

None of the options suit my needs.

I passed my breaking point long ago and am now simply just broken.
I'm not now or have been in a really long time - Where Life Is Good.
I'm not any number of Bad Days Away From Giving Up - because that's not an option with 3 grandsons and a daughter that struggles.
I'm not Halfway Between anything at all.

I hold no hope.
I've given up on people and all of my dreams.
I've silenced my inner want for better or anything close to good.

I spend my wishes more carefully as I wish for a way out that will leave me blameless.
Something akin to a house fire that I can run into and die as I save someone better than me. Or even just save anyone at all and at my funeral nobody calls me a fool or a villain.

I waste my wishes on things like that.
It comes in waves doesn't it, and the more you do nothing, the worse it gets.
Keep yourself busy with something you enjoy, concentrate on that and not being defeatist.

For most of my life it varied from "pretty close" to "a little closer." Now that I'm older I've backed off a little.

Far. I think if anything, I’m becoming stronger
JustNik · 51-55, F

Kiesel · 56-60, M
I question that about once a week right now
Lugwho · 61-69, M
One bad day could do it
valentini · 61-69, M
@Lugwho I used to think that but then I'd have a bad day and notice I was still here so I'd guess I wasn't that close after all.
Extremely far. I'm chilling. 🤷🏾

I think it's hard to know. It's more likely that it'll come as a surprise one day.
BrandNewMan · 61-69, M
Not close at all

I mean, the ceiling could fall and I could reach it pretty fast. But no, it is not falling. Nor the sky is. I'm a pretty badass ninja !
