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

Hey @outlander

I'm just working on my group assignment and washing, and then I'll tackle my essay. I would also like to go for a bike ride this afternoon. It looks like such a nice day.

Are you working or at home today?

hi @Birdofparadise8

Just finished some laundry. It's a warm bright day in the out of doors.

Aside from that I'm tussling with how to overcome negative self talk? .. Have you any tips?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Nice I'm doing laundry as well @Kyle1

Um I'm not the best person to ask that question sorry. I'm literally my own worst enemy and can't even tell myself to stop with the negative self talk.

Maybe @outlander could give some suggestions?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Challenging thoughts is so hard @outlander

I just don't believe it when I do. I think I first need to go back and process the shit that happened at school and then maybe I might be able to better handle it.

I only have a month to find a new psych and I just don't know where to start they are all just so expensive.

Do you know if you meet the safety net do you get more back with Medicare for psychology or is that only like GP? I went last week and I got 80% back.
