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

Sounds like a really great moment to take a breather @creative_writer 🙂🌺, to step back for a little bit, and rebalance 🙂

Re: Not Coping

Yes that’s understandable @Birdofparadise8 🙂

sometimes it’s ok just to let things go for now, and relax a bit…there’s always tomorrow, with a new day can come a new bit of perspective 🌺🙂

Hehe! Here comes some old lady thoughts: I rest whenever the couch comes into view haha 😉☺️🙌🏻

Re: Not Coping

Your funny @Former-Member

I'll discuss it with my psych.

I'm just confused about what KHL said. Would you have any thoughts on what she said?

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 I’ll say talk to your psych. Psychs have to go through rigorous training to get their qualifications. Not saying that KHL is wrong or right. It does ultimately come down to what you think

@Former-Member I’m not really feeling the meds making me as drowsy today, looks like I’ll need some rebalancing before I sleep. If it doesn’t kick in full on I’ll need the PRN, but I’m hoping I don’t. I am having mixed symptoms right now, which isn’t fun

Re: Not Coping

From an outsider's perspective - and what social settings/activities you engage in, I would not see social anxiety as an issue @Birdofparadise8 but it would be best to discuss this with your psych.

Re: Not Coping

Hehe, never let by an opportunity to have a giggle - there’s never enough of them 🙌🏻😊 @Birdofparadise8

yes, that’s a good idea, and your psychologist can help with contextualising a bit more…I honestly don’t really know what to make of the KHL’s thoughts; I tend to think that every support person is different and approaches things differently, and this is the beauty in finding someone that ‘gels’ with you. I also tend to think it’s a little harder to get that deeper connection when dealing with limited contact services? That’s my perspective.. feel free to let me know what you think 🌺🙂
