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

Yeah I hope @creative_writer I have a call with eheadspace tomorrow so maybe they might help because if I am feeling like I am right now on Sunday I’m not sure what will happen.

Thank you @Shaz51 @the past few weeks have really sucked not being able to see my psychologist I didn’t think I would get this bad from just not seeing one person.

How are you by the way?

Glad you got through your work today. Sorry I did not reply immediately and went missing in action kind of ... but family and friends had sudden needs and I was offline til now.

Glad you had @creative_writer @Eve7 @Captain24 and @Shaz51 top "talk" to.

I have had good enough and some terrible triage experiences for all sorts of reasons. Its not good that it triggers you, but I felt that way when I phoned Lifeline about 6 years ago and I never tried them again.

What are things you do that help you feel grounded?

That’s okay @Appleblossom

I just hope when I move to Vic I will get better support.

You would think they are there to help when someone is in need.

@Birdofparadise8 talking to eheadspace sounds like a good idea.

@Shaz51 yeah it can be so annoying waiting for specialists. The health system is under so much pressure in Australia that wait times can be insane.

@Appleblossom I’ve had both good and bad experiences too. I feel like it also dependent on who you get, sometimes it’s easier to get more support if a psych calls in.

Hey @Birdofparadise8 I’ll tag @Zoe7 as she may have a suggestion even though it won’t be anything specific due to guidelines but she is south of Vic.

I do not know any magic tricks about getting good "service". It does seem a bit of luck in who it is, maybe busyness, but dunno. I step forward with best intentions, but I have had been a bit sharp sometimes, 2-3 times, but feel they deserved it. No regrets. Mostly these days I try and avoid having anything to do with them.
