Not Coping

Heya @Birdofparadise8 ,

How are you? I read you are going to watch the Aust Ballet today? That's so amazing. I love watching the ballet. They are so talented.

Hi @tyme

Yeah, I am. I am looking forward to it. It's the students doing their showcase for the year.

I saw my aunt today. I didn't tell her what I did. I'm not sure if I should have or not. I don't want my parents to know, but then I'm lying to my aunt and my parents.

Can I ask you a personal question and SI? You don't have to answer if you don't want to.

Also, did you go for a bike ride yesterday with the kids.

Hey @Birdofparadise8 ,

Whether you tell your aunt & uncle about what happened is absolutely up to you. You are an adult, and you have the right to keep it to yourself at this point.

As for asking about SI, you can ask, but I may not be able to answer you on the forums and may have to take it to email as I don't want to trigger anyone.

And the bike ride??? Yes, sort of. My nephew chucked a hissy fit because he couldn't ride his bike, so he wanted to get his balance bike. But I wasn't going to wait for him, so I left. He then threw a tantrum. But I went with my niece bike riding which was good.

Today, I took my nephew for a ride in the morning. He's okay now.

I think their mum has taken them all out to the pump track to bike ride.

Hi @tyme

Sorry, I was just talking to my regular at KHL. We had a nice long chat. We talked about work and how I managed my distress on Thursday as I didn't call them and a few other things.

Ah ok. I was just going to ask if you have ever done something to yourself and if your family knew and how you went about telling them. You don't have to say though I totally understand.

Oh okay, why wouldn't you wait for him?

At least you enjoyed the ride in the end.

I've done PLENTY of things to myself and never told them @Birdofparadise8 . Whether they found out down the grapevine is a different story. But they never spoke to me directly about it.

I was out of home my the time I started it all.

Ah okay @tyme

You know what I’m saying right like about attempting.

I just wish my aunt didn't have the rule that if I do it that they will tell my parents.

Do you think that's fair that they have the rule about me?

Hey @outlander

How are you?

I'm on my way to the Aus ballet.

I believe it's right for your aunt to say that because otherwise your parents will be upset if something happens, and your aunt knew but they didn't tell your parents @Birdofparadise8 .

I reckon it's only fair.

Hello, @outlander

Hope you've had an amiable weekend. 🙏
