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

I know that feeling, I was quiet fired at a time I was really low and it sucked @Birdofparadise8

Re: Not Coping

Yeah very hard @outlander

Do you only do the ten a year or do you pay on top of that.

Re: Not Coping

i do the 10 then use my insurance to help cover another 2 or 3 but i try and space them out a little if possible @Birdofparadise8 as we only get the 10 per year. i think (but dont quote me) i think there is another referral a gp can make that can get another 2-3 sessions from the governement.

i usually have a gap between when my sessions run out and when i can get it renewed though. christmas is usually hectic and most head away or have time off themselves so it sort of helps with the gap between referal renewals

Re: Not Coping

Hi @Birdofparadise8, @outlander and @fluffylight 💖. Wishing you all a lovely evening.

@Birdofparadise8, I hope you find a better workplace. The work environment matters so much, kind of why my placement was changed

Re: Not Coping

I know it's going to suck with not getting many sessions @outlander

I don't know what I'll do, mum said she will pay so that's nice.

Hey @creative_writer

I hope you're okay.

Thank you, I'm sure I'll find something.
