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 good to hear, other than being sleepy @creative_writer

What are you watching? I'm watching Reacher on Prime. It's so good. You should have a look.

I wish I was allowed a PRN that worked like that.

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I watched a Turkish TV show. They don’t usually recommend taking PRN too regularly and saving for when you need it. Worth talking to pdoc about it.

Still in pain, but I guess this is as good as it’s going to get right now

Re: Not Coping

Do you mean emotional pain @creative_writer?

@RiverSeal do you have Prime?

Re: Not Coping

No @Birdofparadise8 I have Apple TV Plus and nobody else seems to so nobody knows the shows I watch.

Re: Not Coping

I have that as well @RiverSeal

Dam, you should look into Reacher. It's such a good show.

Re: Not Coping

I had a similar thing happening to me for a long time but stopped a few years ago I think. It used to happen to me when people touched me like if I was talking to someone and they touched my arm or something. I had not been in a relationship for a long time then and was not used to other people touching me and I would literally jump out of my skin if it happened. I felt that it came from my lack of connection with people and my sense of worth or something. It has stopped now even though I'm still not in a relationship or anything but I feel more connected to other people. That's my experience anyways @Birdofparadise8 so it might be different for you.

Re: Not Coping

It's not when people touch me; It's just when I'm going somewhere, such as where I said before, I don't expect anyone to be there and then when someone is, I'm startled. @RiverSeal

I don't know. Don't worry about it.
