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

Wow 20 years, I don't know if I would like living alone for that long. It's been hard enough just this year.

Fair enough having things how you like them is good @RiverSeal

I don't really mind I'd go anywhere I can get a job. I would ideally like Melbourne. I want to work in a hospital and maybe even privately on the side seeing clients. I just can't wait for what the next 5 - 6 years will be. If I am on track now and finish my master's I'll be able to start working full time in 2028. I'm not sure how all the end things work in 2027 once I get my degree and all the Medicare and APD stuff.

If I get a job elsewhere I'll take it. Melbourne would be good because in 5 years time I'll have developed friends and stuff here.

@RiverSeal We West Aussies use the term PT too, and I thought we were the only ones 😁

Hi @creative_writer

Yeah, it's been alright today. I've submitted an assignment, been to the movies and gone to my nan's place for dinner.

I’ve just come home and my parents and I will watch an episode of Dr Death it is such a good show other than him killing people.

How are you?

Hi @Blackbird11

Eh, same same. I think you can assume it's not great. I haven't wanted to bother anyone I guess.

New year New shit. Feels all the same. I just hope on Friday night once I'm alone from my parents I don't have a breakdown from not crying since the 19th of December and bottling all my emotions.

I went out for lunch with Poppy yesterday, so that was nice. It's sad to see him slow down so much and his memory is getting worse. I think because of all the caring and support he gave Granny he didn't look after himself.

How are you?
