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

Hi @Birdofparadise8 @ArraDreaming

How are you both going? 🙂

@Birdofparadise8 I understand where you're coming from, sometimes weekends can come with a lot of pressure of doing things. Is there anything you'd like to do even if it's by yourself?

Re: Not Coping

It's because of easter @lavenderhaze

No one will be around.

I have the football tomorrow and a brunch thin with uni res on saturday. Other than that nothing.

I'm a loner loser.

I'm nothing.

Re: Not Coping

I hear you @Birdofparadise8, and I understand how holidays and special events can sometimes amplify feelings of loneliness. It's normal to have those moments, especially when it seems everyone else is busy with plans. ❤️

But you know what? Spending time with yourself doesn't make you a loser at all. In fact, it can be an opportunity to focus on self-care and doing things that truly bring you joy. I don't have any big plans either. Honestly, I'm just looking forward to relaxing, maybe catching up on some shows, taking leisurely walks, and treating myself to a nice hot chocolate. 🙂

Recently I have realised the importance of reframing our thoughts. The way we talk to ourselves shapes our reality more than we often realise. Our lives truly become the stories we tell ourselves, so let's make sure those stories are filled with kindness.

Re: Not Coping

I don't think I can reframe anything right now @lavenderhaze

Ahhh, I want it to be next Wednesday already so I can see my psych again.
