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

Did anyone see lighting in Melbourne?

Funny how it was above 30 degrees, and now it's going to rain.

Re: Not Coping

first medical treatment did help.
had to go back to hospital for surgical complications. trying to fight off a severe infection at the moment and a wound that will not close and keeps reopening so need to speak to a surgeon to see if they can fix it or not yet @Birdofparadise8

Re: Not Coping

That's good and bad then @outlander

I'm only up because I took my meds late after being in the city.

There's thunder, lighting and rain right now, not very fun.

Re: Not Coping

It's still really hot here. It's about 25 @outlander

It will be 34 and rain tomorrow, so that's not fun. You can't rug up to not get wet as it's so hot. I'll have an umbrella, so that's okay.

You're working while your wound is open. Gosh, you're like superwoman/superman/ or they/them. I don't know, sorry.
