Not Coping

Sorry to hear that things are going downhill for you @Birdofparadise8. Did something happen that you feel comfortable talking about? Maybe @amber22 can support you today better than I can as they are working the Forums. RiverSeal

No nothing happened @RiverSeal

Just myself.

Yeah, that's okay.

Have a good week.

Hey! @Birdofparadise8

Yes I am 🙂

I'm really sorry he said that, that's not nice at all. I think that you should definitely be honest with him about what's been coming up for you recently, and just see what he says.

I hope you can do something for yourself this afternoon that will help you feel a bit better 💕

When we chatted on the weekend you housemate was moving in so how did that go @Birdofparadise8? It's ok to not feel good in yourself and these are times when we can grow personally which are sometimes not ease and a bit painful. RiverSeal

Yeah, I'm not sure if I interpreted it wrong or not, but it definitely came across like that.

I guess so. I just hope it won't cause any issues.

I'm not sure what I'm doing this afternoon. I'm waiting to meet a guy to go on a date, but because buses replace trains, I can't get there, and he won't reply back with what we can do when I've given him an option.

I'm just working on my essay that is due on Monday. @amber22

Yeah, she moved in @RiverSeal. She seems nice. We don't have a lot in common, but oh well.

Sometimes it can take a while to get to know someone and even if we don't have things in common at first, we can still create a good connection. Give it some time @Birdofparadise8 and perhaps she feels a little uncomfortable moving into the house and not knowing you. Maybe not rushing into it but planning to prepare a meal together or have a cuppa and a chat sometime could help you get to know them.

Doing things like leaving your door open and using the shared spaces could help make it easy for her to connect with you rather than being in your room. And being a clean and tidy housemate always helps with the connection as they don't have reasons to be annoyed with you hopefully.

I hope it works out with your date today and sorry you're having transport issues atm.

RiverSeal

He won't reply back, so I don't think we will do anything. I'm getting very hungry.

Yeah, I won't rush things. She is playing a game on the TV, and I'm sitting near her on my Mac. @RiverSeal

I think that if it made you feel that way when he said it, it's totally valid that you feel a bit uncomfortable bringing it up again but have a go and see how it feels tomorrow, I think it would be really beneficial to speak about how you're feeling.

Oh I hope that your date gets back to you in a bit, what were you guys going to get up to this afternoon? That's a pity about the transport, maybe you can plan to do something else? @Birdofparadise8

We were meeting for lunch, but he is 40 min away from me, so I don't think it's going to happen.

I've messaged him a few times, and he won't get back to me. I hope he isn't ghosting me. That's all I need right now.

I think I might pop over to Wollies and get something. it's literally 150m away from me @amber22

I hope my gp will increase my mood stabiliser. I think that needs to be increased. I don't see my pdoc until march.

@Birdofparadise8 hi there. It's 10.30 and already 38 degrees here. I'm just doing what I can to keep cool!

How are you today? Hope you didn't have to wait too much longer to have your blood taken.

I read your posts from last night and am shocked at how nothing was done about the behaviour you endured. No wonder you're struggling now.

Keep strong and make sure you do your affirmations because you truly are an amazing beautiful person who is worthy of love, praise and kindness
