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

Re: Not Coping

It can be @Birdofparadise8 but learning to recognise when you're ruminating can certainly help

Re: Not Coping

I more meant recognising when you're no longer processing your emotions @Birdofparadise8 just ruminating on them. For me it's when I notice myself going in circles, having the same thoughts recurring over and over.

@Shaz51 nah it's on the 30th! Here 😊

Re: Not Coping

It definitely can be @Birdofparadise8 - could be something to take to therapy.

I'm off for tonight, good chatting as always. Nighty night gang!

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 all good, a photo of the dress will be good. Make sure you take lots of pics at the concert for yourself though 🙂
Yes, I can get my GP to write up a script for me, I am a little better now but have a feeling it will return tomorrow as I feel unsettled, which is usually a sign of impending anxiety.

I haven't heard from my dad in about a week and I'm used to hearing from him every day so I think that's part of it.

@Shaz51 no lego for me, I do diamond paintings. I find it calms me 🙂
