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

Thank you @Blackbird11

I really miss not being able to talk to her. When I go down on the 20th, I would like to go to the cemetery on my own and sit with her for a bit and talk.

Re: Not Coping

I go to mums resting place and have a coffee with her, just like we use to @Birdofparadise8 I'm glad you've made plans to visit her resting place.

Re: Not Coping

Thank you @Snowie

I was on Facetime, so it was nice I was included in it. It went on for less than 10 minutes, but it was still a sad moment.

Re: Not Coping

Glad you were included @Birdofparadise8

Hopefully she is at rest.

Is there something nice you can do for yourself?

Re: Not Coping

That's nice @Blackbird11

Yeah, I think It might give me more closure. It's different since I've been over here. I didn't see her as much, so when she did die and I came back over here, it was like she was still alive. Maybe going there will help.

Re: Not Coping

I'm pretty busy. I need to wash up, put my clothes away, and then have dinner. I made some cupcakes earlier, so maybe I'll have another one after dinner for a treat. @Snowie

Re: Not Coping

I believe it will help @Birdofparadise8

You can remember her in your own way.
