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

your stuck on the ward @Birdofparadise8 @Shaz51 and its private rooms as well which is good but also isolating. the only interaction is when the dr or nurses come in every couple of hours to make sure your ok but besides that no not really. your allowed visitors but being several hours from home i wont have that luxury. ill be basically in my room. if im not well i wont be on my phone esp since it causes hallucinations etc as well so it can be hard to know whats real whats not and its harder to control thoughts esp when it comes to being anonymous as well so i will have to be extra careful.

Re: Tw Not Coping

The sunshine here was so lovely @outlander .

As for the weekend, I'm not sure what I have going. It's my niece's bday today - she's the big 3, so we may do something this weekend.

She's so cute. You ask her how old she is and she will tell you 3, then put 4 or 5 fingers up lol
