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

Sometimes keeping busy can help @Birdofparadise8

Ah okay cool is it online or in person @Blackbird11

I need to clean my room, wash up, put some washing away and cook dinner. I'm going to have tuna pasta bake tonight.

Yes it can be good @Snowie

What are you up to?

Re: Not Coping

Oh wow @Snowie

Have you had it?

I've never got it and it's funny how people I know have had it 3 time or more.

Re: Not Coping

I had it last year @Birdofparadise8 but very mild. Only had a back ache and that was it. Only tested myself because my daughter tested positive. Hubby hasn't had it before but has got flu like symptoms.

Thats good if you haven't had it. My son hasn't had it either.

Re: Not Coping

It's online @Birdofparadise8 and starts at 5 through to 7. You sound busy, pasta bake sounds nice. I'm having a microwave beef dish tonight. I better go get ready. Chat later if you about.

Hugs for you 🤗

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 I used 5 medium sized potatoes.

No I never had the opportunity to get married or have kids unfortunately. It's something that makes me sad a lot.
No I hadn't thought of trying to contact the kids' dad. I think he would probably go straight to my friend if I did try and contact him. Maybe I'll just drop them off on their doorstep and see what happens. I don't expect she'd give me the courtesy of saying thank you.

My GP put me back on anti anxiety medication yesterday so I'm doing okay for now.

How are you going?
