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.
I had an odd day at work, but that's ok. Home now and can put my work hat up. The movie was well produced, kept me hooked.

Re: Not Coping
Oh, did something happen @Blackbird11?
Ehh been an interesting few days, to be honest. I had a couple of posts about my uncle and me being so stupid with how I interpreted his text. I feel so dumb. I'm not sure if you've seen them.
Overal though, I have been alright. It's just when I've been triggered or something has upset me.

Re: Not Coping
@Birdofparadise8, I don’t think attachment styles are always clear cut. Everyone is different. I grew up independent, but I also have ASD, relationships are different for me. I haven’t had a romantic relationship either, I’m closer to 30 than 20 now, the pressure is there. Romantic relationships make me anxious.
