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

Yeah that’s where we want to go @Birdofparadise8 have family that live near palm cove, but more suburban, we want to go visit them but it’s 3 days in the car and our kids are too small for that at the moment, we are thinking maybe fly when we can have the money saved,
we would stay with them @Birdofparadise8

Re: Not Coping

Okay @ArraDreaming

I think flying would be better. Well personally I wouldn't want to drive for three days.

Re: Not Coping

Yes, saving money is hard with the price of everything at the moment @ArraDreaming

Re: Not Coping

Yep same @Birdofparadise8 I don’t condone this activity but we had $3 left in our bank account for groceries a couple weeks back and I worked out that you can buy a woolies voucher or petrol voucher for any amount using PayPal and it still processes
Better than risking your card declining cause sometimes it lets you overdraw at the shops sometkmex not….
You have to pay it back obviously but in a pinch it helped
Been doing some cash work on the side so that has helped a lot recently
