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: Not Coping

Listen to your inner voice @Birdofparadise8 that says you can do it, because you can.

I have dealt with so many people that are dismissive and who should not be working in mental health. It is so frustrating to reach at for help when you are at your lowest point, only to be made to feel worse. ED does not understand mental health issues at all. They come in every hour to check your blood pressure and I think, that is not what I am here for. You need someone to talk to, not talk at you. You are doing your best, keep it up. I know that it is hard to see the light, have been there often, especially when you feel tired and frustrated, but it is there and you will make it through

I'm not in an ED. I'm talking about disorder eating @Rockdog sorry. EDs stands for eating disorders.

I did get through to the Butterfly Foundation in the end. The Lady was nice who I talked to. I'm struggling so much.

Though thank you @Rockdog

my regular at KHL is fantastic with my depression and other things. It’s just with eating she doesn’t get it. Telling me to eat won’t fix anything. It’s not that simple.

Hi @amber22

I'm not that great today, sorry to say. Yesterday wasn't very nice.

Hey @Birdofparadise8

Oh no, are you okay? I'm here to chat if you wanted to talk about it, or we could just talk about something else if you didn't want to go there again.

What are you up to this morning/ today?

Re: Tw Not Coping

It was just what happened with my regular at KHL. She kept telling me that I need to eat and what foods to eat. I just felt she was being dismissive.

I'm not sure if you're aware of my eating and that it's become a struggle over the past month.

She is has been amazing with my depression but with disorder eating, I don't think she fully understands it all @amber22

I would like to go for a bike ride today, and I need to clean my room.

What have you been up to?

In response to: Re: Tw Not Coping

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh no @Birdofparadise8 I am so sorry that she was so dismissive about your eating. It is really good that she knows how to help with your depression, but it is hurtful when she is dismissive about your eating and rather is trying to tell you that you need to eat etc. That can be extremely triggering, I'm sorry that happened.

That sounds really lovely to go for a bike ride, I hope it's nice weather for you today.

I haven't been up to much! Just working and trying to relax a bit. I have to take my dad for surgery tomorrow so I've taken the day off to look after him 🙂
