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

Hockey, sex and how one is a doctor and the other is a player. They met before on a one night stand so they are not sure what they will do, but I think there is going to be a lot more than just single-partner stuff. I saw somewhere four people I was like oh my god.

Hahaha I hope you don't think badly of me or anything @ArraDreaming

Re: Not Coping

Can you accept it, you did the best that you could and that's ok and then let it go @Birdofparadise8?

Re: Not Coping

Eh I guess maybe tomorrow @Blackbird11

I just wish I could have done better. I should have been able to. I felt so dumb. It's just hard when I know I'm smart academically and am doing well at uni to then be humiliated infrint of my cousin who was smarter than me when we were younger but I am older than her. She is still smart but I feel dumb if I can do these cognitive games like they all could.

Re: Not Coping

I just looked it up, I’m not a reader and maybe not geared towards my demographic 🙃
