Not Coping

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

Oh that is so tough @Birdofparadise8

Does work help to get your mind off of things for a while? Sometimes I have to force myself to work when I'm feeling like that, but it does help my mind a bit

Re: Tw Not Coping

It depends on the day and who Im working with or how busy it is.

If it is busy and good colleague then it's fine but when they aren't as good then it's not good.

I just hope my depression won't get in the way today @amber22

Re: Tw Not Coping

I hope you've got some good colleagues to work with today @Birdofparadise8

Do you have anything planned for after work? Hopefully you don't finish too late

Re: Tw Not Coping

I start at 4:30 and finish at midnight so its a late one and I'm already so tied since I got up early to pre for uni, work and the appointment.

I'll go home and cry that's for sure.

I think I do from looking at the roster @amber22

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh goodness that is very late @Birdofparadise8 Hopefully you can tire yourself out at work so you come home and sleep.

Do you enjoy working nights?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Ohh that does sound so tiring @Birdofparadise8

Those are some long shifts too!

Do you have any time off this week that you could use to rest?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I guess I just hope my depression doesn't get in the way on Friday to Sunday.

I also see my psychologist on Friday and have the appointment with the clinical trial on Friday now. I don't know how he stuffed it up today but oh well @amber22
