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

Why do people message you when they can only talk for like a minute, and they say they have to go @ENKELI @Blackbird11

My uncle.

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 no idea.

Why do people promise they'll go with you to an event and then book something else?

People for the most part suck

Re: Not Coping

People are time poor sometimes @Birdofparadise8

It's frustrating and shows a lack of priority.

Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

The issue lies with them @Birdofparadise8 not with you.

You are kind, caring and understanding. You matter to us @Birdofparadise8

Re: Not Coping

It was my uncle @Blackbird11

He had gone to Adelade for something and had just finished golf, so he thought he would message me, as I texted him about the footy. anyway, the next minute, he said he had to go.

I would have preferred him to not message me until he could talk for like at least five minutes.

Thank you, you're too kind @Blackbird11

Are you around for much longer?

Re: Not Coping

Things come up sometimes @Birdofparadise8 I know I seomtimes starting talking to someone and I already have my hands full or I need to do something else
I usually don’t say I have to go I just respond when I’m ready to I guess peoples expectations around messages are all different
