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

@Birdofparadise8 preoccupied/anxious attachment style can also be the result of being raised in a way where some, but not all, of your emotional needs are being met by your primary caregiver(s). Highly recommend a series of podcasts that Therapists Uncensored did about attachment theory, helped me understand my own preoccupied attachment style way better - go to this page, attachment stuff starts with episode 59 but episode 60 is about preoccupied style.

Re: Not Coping

Hello @Glisten Only just got back from my trip. Mate, So what's the go with your mouth piece. Hope you can give me a frame work to hang some clothes and a face on it and get a handle on what we are dealing with here. I hope its a "she" or at the very least an op shop cloaked street fighter, "he" Best would be a mix. The kid that that was bullied all their life and now, lives their revenge on the whole world, through their clientele. Picking a good lawyer is more important than the husband your going to want them to eat. . . If it does not feel exactly right.. Walk out and continue the search.

They have a work load to get through. Well they can go rush someone else's case . You get one crack at this mate. For now . . . pour a frosted glass, draw a picture in your head of the perfect lawyer,

and try and relax.. Tomorrow. We just seek a little harder..

I can't do eye contact well, but you can.. When I want to get a point across, I lean right into their

personal space, sear my eye contact into the persons soul, and very slowly tell them the outcome they are going to deliver at my feet. . ! We will hopefully get into it later. I really want you to have a win S G... You've blead long enough for one.. Your friend Hucklebury.. tns

Hi @Oaktree @Bunniekins @ENKELI @Former-Member @Former-Member @StuF @TAB and everyone.. Just got to the mail box .. I do hope you all had a little win somewhere in your day.

Back soon..

Re: Not Coping

KHL said if I always reach out to people, I would be less likely to have abandonment or rejection issues.

I wouldn't try to reach out if I fear them. @Jynx @Former-Member @Former-Member

Also

Labelling experience in social situations as abandonment or rejection and questioning if it’s social anxiety.

Can social anxiety cause feelings of rejection?

Labeling might lead to a spiral.

She said not to make "rejection a big thing" labelled (she said I made it a big focus of the call about the rejection and abandonment if I have it)

I felt rejected. Notice feelings and how they change.

I'll reply to the others in a minute. I'm just writing about the things she mentioned.

This is her thoughts.

Re: Not Coping

I'm really confused now @creative_writer

With what KHL has said as well.

I do worry but it's mostly on here, RO, I guess friend, but I don't have many.

Does it count on here as well?

I'll have a look at that link @Jynx thank you.

I'm so confused @Former-Member

I don't know what to think KHL said.

Re: Not Coping

@Former-Member I’ve had my meds, so hopefully it’ll settle. I have PRN just in case I need it. Just found myself opening old wounds right now, my mind is racing, analysing, thinking too much

@Birdofparadise8 all relationships count, this is something worth discussing with your psych, he will be the best person to help you understand what is going on for you

Re: Not Coping

Take your time @Birdofparadise8 , give yourself freedom to see how things sit alongside you if they’re a bit confusing, and come back to it later dearest.
Give yourself some space to have a rest 🌺🙂
