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

Sometimes it is good to cry and then we can talk about how we feel. Get home safe @Birdofparadise8 and get settled and we can chat. RiverSeal

Re: Tw Not Coping

Ok great you are comfortable and safe! I'm glad to hear you have a regular KHL appointment soon and you can chat to them about how you are feeling. I'm here too if you need me tonight! Are you going to have something to eat or make a cuppa? RiverSeal

Re: Tw Not Coping

What else do you do @Birdofparadise8 apart from working in the evening on the weekend? There are many things that we can do to improve our lives even when it feels like life sucks. I have had that feeling a lot throughout my life and can really relate. I'm a big believer in hope and focusing on what we can control rather than things that are out of our control. What you you do differently if you could right now or tomorrow? RiverSeal

Re: Tw Not Coping

I'm going for a bike ride, and I have a lot of uni study to do @RiverSeal.

I'll probably continue to belittle myself like I always do. I'm my own worst enemy.
