Something’s not right

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

@Birdofparadise8 even boring stuff can be made extra tasty with the right spices.

Re: Tw Not Coping

haha no other things lol @Jynx

I got my essay done yesterday so I'm happy about that. Today was alright. I'm not really in the mood.

Oh also to answer your question from yesterday about speaking to my regular at KHL I'm speaking to her tonight. I'm going to go for a walk shortly and then come back make my smoothie and then it will be time to talk to her.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Mmm, I'm not sure @Jynx.

I'll be talking about my eating, which has gotten so much worse the past week and a bit. Also, about my grandmother and what might happen in the next few weeks. I need to find a new psych and just how bad my depression is in general.

I don't really know if I want to talk about my eating because telling her won't change what I do and it will just lead us to go around and around in circles.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 if you feel it's going in circles you can point that out and ask for something to shift.

I reckon talking about your grandmother would be super helpful, I know it's been pretty heav for you.

Re: Tw Not Coping

It's hard because she is trying her best as because she told Me disordered eating isn't something she knows a lot about.

Yes I hope so too @Jynx
