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

If you mean the psych hospital, well, yes, I am. I came home on Saturday @Kyle1.

It's very weird, and I feel so overwhelmed. I don't like it.

It also doesn't help that what happened on Friday is still affecting me as we speak or, well, me typing. I need to get a grip, but it's a bit hard. I'm not sure if you've looked at what happened, but it's here somewhere. Abandoned like I am. And Like I always will be. Forever alone. Alone Laura for life.

Re: Not Coping

No, not really, but oh well @outlander don't worry about it.

Kind of made me feel like I might be like this forever, if I'm honest. If you still struggle with it how am I supposed to get over it when it still happens in my life now as well?

Re: Not Coping

I did have the question mark over becoming institutionalised when I last heard you speak of wanting to stay in, @Birdofparadise8 ... And being so prone to aloneness would make you vulnerable to that, I'd surmise...

Hey @Birdofparadise8

Glad to hear you are okay, I want you to know that we are here for you.

I can't imagine how challenging it must be for you lately. Please reach out to friends, family, or a mental health professional for help. You are not alone, and there are people who care about you deeply.

With going home, take one step at a time, and remember that small victories are still victories. Your strength in facing this challenge is remarkable, and I believe in your resilience.

Sending you love, understanding, and positive energy to brighten your path.

From @Melbcoffeesnob
