Not Coping

I meant wouldn't be my friend

hahhah @bartart23

You asked jynx to be.

@Blackbird11 and I are friends. I'm pretty sure, anyway. Well, I hope we are, hahaha.

Mmm, okay. Is there a way you could try not to yell so you can get to know people?

Oh, okay, what did they do?

You have two. How did you get two? I talk to mine weekly and sometimes fortnightly depending on what is happening. I'm not sure when I'll talk to her next as I'll be in Hobart, and I don't have much time where I can talk openly about MH so it will be difficult.

I asked @Jynx to be my friend fuck that's a bad move

I was talking to a lady on khl and I had asked if she could be my councillor and said yes and then the next time I had talked to her she had talked to her boss and the boss said because I'm too complex or something on the line I am getting 2 because I was high risk or something I talk to one on Tuesdays nights and Thursdays but I haven't talked to them because I'm cranky with them

Maybe ask your counsellor

I don't really know sorry it was khl boss that said I needed 2 @Birdofparadise8

Khl is nice I am just cranky with the world and people

Hey @bartart23 ,

Unfortunately, as part of using the forums, we need to be able to confirm your safety if we have reason to believe you are in harm's way.

If you have not confirmed your safety on the forums by saying, "I'm safe", then we do need to send you an email.

These are part of the guidelines when you first signed up which means you have agreed to this.

If you confirm your safety on the forums, then we won't need to send you a check-in email.

Another reason we email people is if there is a breach of guidelines.

Yes, we can limit how much we email you, but we cannot say we won't email you.

tyme

It doesn't worry me I like mine anyway.

Why is is a bad move to ask @Jynx

Oh okay I'm sorry you’re cranky.

@bartart23

Not a 'bad move' to ask someone to be friends with you @bartart23, and in fact I would not want to discourage you from going out on a limb like that to make new friends in the future.

Alas, we are constrained here by my professional role and the subsequent power imbalance and inherent conflict of interest. I'm always happy to provide warmth, care, and support wherever I can, but at the end of the day I have to maintain my professional boundaries. I am flattered though and appreciate the gesture 😉

It's so weird I’m comfortable siting in a restaurant-like setting at the airport on my own. If I were in the city I wouldn't sit anyway in a restaurant or pub alone.

I don't know why it's any different here but I’m okay with it. Maybe because a lot of other people are doing the same I feel less judged. If I was in the city I would feel like everyone is judging me.

Train tack. My psych today said he was proud that I am going to visit Granny tomorrow even though it will be hard and to give myself space from mum by going alone and wanting her to respect that. I told her on the phone a couple hours ago that I want to go alone. She seemed okay with it. Sucks I have to walk and get two busses. Ahh Hobart public transport I didn't realise how bad it was until I moved to Melbourne.

Because I never ask people to be my friends I am just worried about being judged or hated @Birdofparadise8 I hop6we are friends 🙂

Just delete my my life

I don't hate you and I don't think anyone else here does @bartart23

Yes we are friends. I would like us to get to know each other more if you like 😀
