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

They are all lovely to go to @ArraDreaming

Do you have any aspirations for a big holiday in the future once your children are a bit older?

Re: Not Coping

Nah, I have always been here, well I grew up in Melbs/Naarm but moved around lots when I was younger but moved more regionally maybe like 7 years ago or so?
