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: Tw Not Coping

Lunch went well @hanami. I can’t remember the last time I went to lunch or caught up with my friend. Sitting alone I didn’t feel like everyone was looking at me and I didn’t feel judge. I’m really proud!

Bachelor of Health Science majoring in Nutrition I can not believe it and it’s in Hawthorne so it’s even closer to the city @Captain24 @hanami

It's very exciting for you! 😍

Re: Tw Not Coping

So glad to read lunch went well @Captain24. You should be really proud of yourself!

What I've learned through life in those situations is that people are so busy worrying about themselves they're usually not to fussed what others are doing!

Re: Tw Not Coping

Thanks @FloatingFeather

That’s what the sensible part of my brain knows. It’s just that the whole anxiety side is way louder in those situations. But today I didn’t listen to it!
