Something’s not right

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

Cute name hehe @Birdofparadise8

Well that's good, glad that you got plenty of stuff to eat!

Will it impact your ability to attend your classes?

I only got some milk, fruit toast and ice cream hahah. I had food to cook tonight and I have a few freezer meals to use to tie me over @Jynx

OMG next door has loud music going ahhh.

Re: Not Coping

Noooo why! @Birdofparadise8 that sucks. Do you have noise cancelling headphones? They've been a life saver for me - if I don't feel like listening to music I just chuck on some white noise, drowns everything else out and lets me just retreat into my own bubble for a while.

Re: Not Coping

Yeah, I do. It's stopped for a bit now, but I think they are having a party.

My other roommate is coming back soon, so I should go to my room at some stage so she isn't near me. I feel so bad I have covid @Jynx

I had a few things to do this week. I hope I'll be able to study and get ready for next week. I have so much anatomy. I think I have five hours of lectures for three classes, and the other one hasn't been released yet. Then, readings and other modules are on top of it. Ahh, so much to do. Oh well it's what I signed up for. I've just got to push through this sem, and my other three will be nutrition, chemistry, and biochemistry, so fun. Anatomy is my weak link. I'm just slow at learning.

@Birdofparadise8 yeah it does really suck to have to worry about being contagious for others hey. I know you know it's not your fault, but hope you can remind yourself of that if you start getting big feelings of guilt.

Woah hectic! Pedal to the metal with it all hey. And anatomy is tricky! So many weird, unpronouncable names haha. I haven't studied it but my friend is doing neuroscience and sometimes when she's talking about it my brain just goes blank cos it all sounds like gibberish!

Hopefully you have friendly teachers who you can ask for some extra support if you need it

Re: Not Coping

Yeah, I know; I couldn't help getting it with 96,000 people there.

Yes, so much gibberish @Jynx

I hope so too. I worry I'll sound too dumb.

@ENKELI how have you been in the heat today?

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 oof, maybe it was a 'superspreader' event. That's rough, sounds like you got unlucky.

Naw, the whole point is to learn! And everyone learns in their own way. Only stupid question is the one you don't ask!

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

That's true @Jynx

I'm just hard on myself, and I'm slow at learning. I wish I could work out a way so I could understand things quicker, and so I can remember them.

hey @Shaz51 @Birdofparadise8 @Glisten @creative_writer

How is everyone today?
I spent several hours with my mum at the hospital for a routine appointment, all good and the air conditioning was a welcome respite.

Thankfully it is going to be cooler tomorrow...yaaay!

Hope everyone is doing okay, @Birdofparadise8 are you still singing songs from the concert?
