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

@tyme and @ENKELI, I was at uni and was ruminating on the way to uni. When I got home I was able to rest up and minimise sensory triggers. ASD sensory sensitivities feel worse when I’m stressed

Re: Not Coping

Uni has started already? @creative_writer

Phew! I thought you were in hospital or something!

Hope you can wind down now.

Re: Not Coping

@tyme, I haven’t been suicidal since that very rough patch last week. I was able to resolve that by taking PRN for a few days, so fortunately, no hospital stays needed.

Yeah, uni semester started on Monday but I only have classes on Wednesday and Thursday. We start early to squeeze placement, it’s a big year. One placement plus 5.5 coursework units

Re: Not Coping

Why can't I win just once? I've had a nice afternoon/evening with the guy I had a date with. The movie was good. We came back home I cooked dinner and he helped me sort out my beads for the bracelets and then he left. Now I'm sitting here crying.

Re: Not Coping

All good. I'm just having an ice cream.

I have to get up earlier and have a blood test for my mood stabiliser to see what level is in my blood since the increase and then go line up and get the souvenir TS ticket, then I see my psych and then I have to go to the dfo to get a bag. @creative_writer
