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

Sorry to hear it @bartart23 wanna take some long, slow breaths? In for 4, hold, then out for 6 or 7.... our heartrate quickens as we breathe in, and slows as we breathe out, so by making the inhale shorter and exhale longer, it will naturally slow your heartrate.

What do you think would be helpful for you right now?

Re: Not Coping

I'm glad you're doing the breathing thing @bartart23 hopefully it will help you to regulate your nervous system a bit.

You've got people around you here, and whilst it's a virtual space, you definitely aren't alone in it!
