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: Not Coping

Hey @Birdofparadise8 ,

Happiness is a temporal thing. Wishing for something temporal may end up leading to disappointment. I hear how hard it is for you at the moment.

Re: Not Coping

I'm sorry to hear that @Birdofparadise8 . I can see why you'd want a break from feeling that way.

Re: Not Coping

Hearing you @Birdofparadise8 . And it is understandable. I recognise it hasn't been easy. Would you go and spend some more time with your family?

Re: Not Coping

They won't want me to, and I don't want to be a burden on them @tyme

I see my aunt on Sunday for breakfast, but that's is. I only see her every three weeks.

I don't know how to cope with feeling like this for much longer.

Re: Not Coping

Challenge your thoughts @Birdofparadise8 . I know it's hard, but you need to help yourself. There's only so much we can rely on others.

I learnt that the hard way. I hope to save you from the elongated journey if possible.

Recovery MUST come from within.

Re: Not Coping

Mmm, I guess @tyme

I just hate trying to do that. I never belive it and it's very hard in the moment.

Re: Not Coping

My first thought was to die @tyme.

I really don't know.
