Not Coping

Hey everyone how are you all?

@RiverSeal @Shaz51 @NatureLover @tyme @Former-Member @Eve7 @Former-Member @amber22 @Jynx @FloatingFeather

I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.

Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.

Thank you

Re: Tw Not Coping

No, I won't be saying anything about DBT. It's come to the point that only you can help yourself @Birdofparadise8

There's only so much other people can do. The rest is up to you.

I also had to come to that point.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 weve offered a fair few amount of suggestions in the past. im wondering what you have tried that you find helpful?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yes, I have the list @outlander.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I'm in my PJs, and I don't want to do any of them I'm just exhausted. Please don't suggest going to bed early. I'm waiting for some washing to dry.

I'll be fine @outlander sorry I'm being short I'm just upset.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Well, try and chill. I'm still crying, but nothing is new there, @outlander.
