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

Yes it's ok but hard work. @Birdofparadise8

Motivation can be hard to find and to sustain. Break it up into small manageable sections if you can. Do you want tell me more about your feelings? Are you safe and supported?

Hey @amber22

I'm not sure. I'm still in hospital. I went for a walk earlier, which was nice. I wish I could feel better.

I'm trying to do that @Blackbird11. I just feel so miserable. I'm sad, alone, stuck in my head. I'm starting to cry now. I'm safe not so sure about the support part but yeah.

You're not alone @Birdofparadise8 we're here for you. Crying is good it's the body's way of regulating it's self. Every tear shows you care. Do you like quotes?

Hi @Melbcoffeesnob

Nice to meet you.

Running, walking and bike riding. I also like cook, but I haven't done it for a while in hospital.

Thank you for the hugs. I don't know when the last time I've had a deep and meaningful hug with someone.

Oh @Birdofparadise8 I'm so sorry to hear that you're feeling upset right now.

As @Blackbird11 said, crying can be really therapeutic and it's really good to let it out.

You have so much support around you and you are so valued here on the forums, do you have anything planned for tonight? 💘

No not really dinner is at 6 pm and I need to have a shower to wash off this sunscreen and the meds are at 8 pm, so that will nock me out for sleep at least or well asist.

I might continue to watch Jane the Virgin and maybe try and work on a little bit of my assignment.

That is very nice @Blackbird11 I love the quote.
