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

@Birdofparadise8, I’m sorry. Yes I’ve finished uni for the year. I don’t celebrate Christmas. Just been trying to resist urges

Re: Not Coping

It’s just my mum @creative_writer

I'm not sure if you've been keeping up with my thread.

Oh yeah okay.

Oh okay is everything okay?

Have things started to get too much for you?

Do you see any support soon?

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I’ve read bits and pieces so I know it’s been hard with your mum. I’m exhausted from overthinking. Maybe that’s why I’ve been trying to avoid so much free time for so long. Uni kept me occupied. I don’t see any supports soon. I registered for peer mentoring from a service, but won’t be getting a call till early Jan and I also have an appointment with psych and nurse later in Jan too

Re: Not Coping

Do you see a psych nurse @creative_writer

How did you get them?

Have I asked before sorry if I have.

Oh have you been overthinking a lot recently?

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I see both a psych and psych nurse. I don’t tell my psych nurse all that much, I don’t want it to go back to my GP. My GP doesn’t need to know I’m a basket case. My psych knows more and I’ve also know her for longer. The psych nurse is through a service care in mind. It’s separate from Medicare rebated sessions. I wish Medicare covered more sessions, I would chose to see my psych more often if there were more sessions. My mind has been free since I finished, and my life hasn’t been flashback free

Re: Not Coping

Ah right, that makes sense.

Don't you like your GP?

I know ten isn't enough. Do you have private health? You can get money back through that.

I see my psych weekly so ten won't last longer long next year.

@creative_writer

You a bit tired @Snowie

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I haven’t found a GP I feel comfortable with. I have private health insurance, but the level I have doesn’t cover psych sessions. I would need to increase the cover
