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

Re: Not Coping

Identifying it is the first step, your already half way there so props to you

Hahah all good @ENKELI

Yeah, it's hard suppression, which isn't good. I don't feel good doing it.

Um, well, I've been told about it by others a lot lately, so I'm not really recognising it for myself, only through others. @ArraDreaming

Hi @tyme

How are you?

My parents are nearly home.

Re: Not Coping

Yeah and? @Birdofparadise8 tell me how that’s a problem that someone has identified something and given you feedback? We do most of our learning from others, all through life, that’s not a bad thing that someone has been on your side enough to let you know they have noticed something

Hey @Birdofparadise8 ,

They are home? To you? To Tassie? To the hotel?

Sorry, I haven't been following. I'm only just catching up.

Re: Not Coping

actually you know what you need? and soon this can be you, but maybe you need someone around you to call you on it, and eventually you’ll be able to notice it first but small steps.
When I’m feeling anxious my wife is the first one to say “your doing it again did you notice that?” “Did you notice that you are being really indecisive and talking really fast?” “It’s Sunday and you are aggressively cleaning our house at 11pm” And I’ll be like, oh right… I am, this is what I do when I’m anxious… why?
and I’m getting to the point albeit slowly where I’m like I’m feeling anxious right now, I don’t know what for though I’ll find out (sometimes I already kniw ).

Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

I don't have anyone that could do that, though @ArraDreaming
