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

Yeah, I tried to a bit hard, though, because she is saying everything I need to do to help with these eating issues, but I just don't see myself being able to change. So I really don't see why I mentioned it in the first place @Jynx

Does that make sense at all? Sorry if it doesn't.

How was your weekend? Did you do anything nice?

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Jynx, i like when it’s not too cold or hot, we get some of that during spring and autumn. However, late autumn does start feeling dreadful and late spring is too hot. Yes, they are blue blocking glasses, they are amber tinted because they block more blue light than the clear ones.

I’m going to head off, goodnight @Jynx and @Birdofparadise8, I hope you both have a restful night 💓

Nighty night @creative_writer have good snoozles 💜

@Birdofparadise8 Well, we are the authors of our own stories. If you say to yourself, "I don't see myself being able to change" then you won't. If you catch that thought and say, "Okay, I don't see myself being able to change yet, but I am going to try anyway."

You might think that even if you try, you will fail. But if you don't try, then you'll never know if it was actually possible. Does that make sense?

Weekend was pretty groovy, I had a D&D session which always brings me much joy. Anything coming up you're looking forward to?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Aww thanks @Birdofparadise8, glad to know it's helpful.

It's Dungeons & Dragons 😉

Hehe I'm a big ol' nerd and very stoked about it.

Aww yay! Sounds super exciting, plus you get to have cake! And being in your 20's is the most fun I reckon. I miss being able to do stuff without back pain lol

Re: Tw Not Coping

Just with a few mates from work @Birdofparadise8 it's super fun. I'm playing as a Druid Gnome (nature magic, teeny tiny lad) named Frick Frack Snickle Snackle 🤣 Plus I get to talk in a really bad Irish accent the whole game.

Do you like nerdy stuff? Video games or fantasy shows or board games and stuff?

Re: Tw Not Coping

No not really sorry to say @Jynx

I just have uni, work, study, exercise, tv, and that's about it.
