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, a shower still does sound like a good idea. I took one too, it was about time I washed my hair

Re: Not Coping

Yeah I'm trying to get there @creative_writer

I need to go get my meds as well. It's so annoying this weekly pick-up.

Re: Not Coping

Haha I get nervous sweats too @Birdofparadise8 - bring a spare shirt in your backpack maybe? And also do remember - no one is ever judging us as harshly as we judge ourselves. They don't even think about us as much as we do, they're mostly too busy worrying about their own stuff! Plus it's hot out, I think we're all probably a bit sweaty haha.

Re: Not Coping

I even get so sweaty in winter @Jynx

I have this spray you put on a night which helps.

I live on campus so class is a max of five minutes away.

Hey @Birdofparadise8

Just checking in, the heat hasn't conquered me just yet but it's up to 44 on Thursday so we'll see after that.

Still applying for jobs, my anxiety is really high and making me physically ill. I'm over it all!

Hope everyone else is going okay.

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I was also feeling pretty gross. Today has been hot, it’s cooler outside now, might be nice to let some fresh air in

Re: Not Coping

Yeah that's a good idea @creative_writer

I should go have my shower now and go to the chemist.

What are you doing for dinner? I'm having sweet and sour chicken from yesterday.

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 oh cool, is that like a medicated deodorant? One of my mates uses one like that, says it's ncessary cos she sweats sooo much.

Sweet n sour chicken sounds sooo yum!
