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, short people can be cute. I tower over some guys when wearing heels

Re: Not Coping

Haha I bet you would @creative_writer

My mums best friend has a daughter who is a year younger than me and she is taller than six foot. She is a very solid lady. I wouldn’t want to be that tall. She has to wear a lot of men shoes. Then there is me and my size 9 feet which are so narrow I can’t wear any shoes that done have a strap or buckle because they just fall off no matter how long they are. When I saw younger and did ballet as a child the dance shop would have to put in a special order for me because of how narrow my feet were.

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I’m like a size 7, so on the small end. My feet are also narrow, my feet dance around in my shoes

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I think it might be my bone structure. I have been told I have sharp elbows too.

I’ve had dinner too.

Re: Not Coping

Oh okay @creative_writer

What are you up to now?

I've just had a chat with my regular at KHL.

I also got my first unit syllabus for the upcoming semester.

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I’ve been listening to sad music to my own detriment. Should’ve known better.

I hope the chat with KHL went well. I think your semester is starting a bit later? Mine started today

Re: Not Coping

Oh, what songs are you listening to @creative_writer?

Yeah, it did thank you. She agreed with you about talking to my psych about abandonment and some other things.

Yeah, I start the 26th.

What does your week look like with uni?

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, citizen soldier, but I warn you, many of their songs have heavy themes, like trauma, suicide and SH.

I have classes on Wednesday and Thursday. Everything else is self study. Do you have many days in?

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

I have a total of 16 hours of classes over three days, plus all the online content.

Lucky you only have to go in for two. Do you have any placement this sem?
