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

Went to a little music gig in the bush @Birdofparadise8 - got to have a solid stomp to some sweet tunes and camped out over a few nights with friends. Super splendid. You get out into nature much?

Re: Not Coping

Only for a bike ride along the Yarra river @Jynx

Sounds nice for you. I'm not an outdoors type of person. I like a hotel hahaha.

Re: Not Coping

Fair enough @Birdofparadise8 camping isn't for everyone! But glad that you still have some outdoorsy fun - I can't remember where I heard it but I learned that humans actually do benefit from even just seeing greenery. Don't quote me on it lol but even having fake plants in the house is better than none, because the look of being surrounded by nature is good for mental health. Do you have house plants? I have exactly one, and it's hard enough to take care of it haha.
