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

We just go around in a circle about why I'm sad.

All I can say is I feel sad, and it's like a wave washes over me. I don't have to think about anything specific, and it can come any time of the day. I can be around people, and I still feel it. However, such as tonight, it's more prominent than other nights.

Then he puts pressure on me to say what I'm thinking is causing the sadness when I seriously don't know, and I get frustrated, and we get nowhere closer. He thinks I'm blocked or something.

I told me regular tonight, and she said it could be a trauma response from all the bullying, so I don't have to be thinking about things to necessarily make me sad. I hope that makes sense @ENKELI

No, he hasn't. We haven't gone over anything like that.

I didn't know there was anything else in Hobart. I only knew of the one through the RHH.

It was so bad. No one would listen to me. It just makes me upset now thinking about it. They were a complete mess. They lied about things I said. Discharged me without knowing. Said I have this thing wrong with me when I would lately tell them it's the complete opposite. Anyone, no need for me to go on about them. It's in the past.

Um well. It's a bit different sharing. I'm not used to it. Oh well. It will be okay.

It makes perfect sense @Birdofparadise8.

There is no quick fix for bullying sadly. I understand, after being bullied myself.

Do you feel like your psych is helping?

Re: Not Coping

I really don't know, to be honest, @ENKELI

I don't even know where we are going or what we are doing. We are just going around a never-ending circle of why I'm sad.

No, I know. I hope it won't take me 13 years. That's how long the bullying went for.

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 I always feel better after my psych sessions, and come away believing that I will get better. I would look into seeing someone else if I wasn't feeling better after several sessions. That is me though, you need to do what is best for you.

I don't believe it will take 13 years to get over the bullying, it's still fresh for you though so it feels like you'll always feel bad.

It's been 6 months since I left my workplace where I was bullied and I still get scared when I apply for a job, especially when I am not getting replies.

We need to take back the power these bullies have over us. I just wish there was an easy way to do it!

Re: Not Coping

Did you make a formal complaint?

Services won't improve without feedback. You have rights and it sounds as though, you were not treated well @Birdofparadise8

It's hard sharing, give it time and hopefully you will be settled soon.

Re: Not Coping

Last week I didn't I was upset he wouldn't hug me @ENKELI

Yes let's hope thing will improve for us both.

No I didn't they said it because they didn't have much staff that's why. @Blackbird11

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 don't take it personally that he didn't hug you. He is setting a boundary and it isn't because of you.

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

He just said because of a power embalncimbalance @ENKELI

I don't care that is one. I'm craving a hug so desperately right now it's painful and now I'm back to crying again. my eyes hurt.

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 I am so sorry you are alone. I wish I could give you a hug! What about your aunt and uncle? Are they huggers?
