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

That's nice @Shaz51

How are things at home? Has anything started to happen with the cyclone?

I hope you both are okay.

Re: Not Coping

Hey, @Shaz51 it's been raining where I am or at least it's cloudy today. I just put on a jumper so definitely not a heatwave. Take care RiverSeal

Re: Not Coping

Hey @RiverSeal

I don't know if you're in Melbourne, but it's cloudy here as well. Hot in my room I don't have aircon. The uni doesn't think we need it. I sit here sweating because it's so hot with two fans going.

Re: Not Coping

What's a king tide @Shaz51

I'm watching a news video, and someone said to expect 300 to 400mm of rain over a two-day period. I'm going to assume that's a lot of rain.

Re: Not Coping

Hey, @Birdofparadise8 Yeah I'm in Melbourne but I have my balcony door open and it's pretty cool. It depends on your location and the building has a lot to do with it I have learned. RiverSeal
