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

@creative_writer thanks for your support.

Being flagged was a frustration at the time because as I mentioned to @Birdofparadise8 I've got a heap going on and I knew I was in a bad mood and needed to step away. If you want to read what I wrote to @Birdofparadise8 that explains it all.

I've been flagged before, the mods have a job to do and I breached guidelines so they were right to pull me up.

As for uni maybe you do need to take a break if that's an option for you hon, there's nothing worse than putting more pressure on yourself when you're not doing well mentally xx

Re: Not Coping

I'm sorry it's so hard with what is happening with your dad.

Is there anyone else that can help?

Yes, it will be. I'll be by your side, don't you worry. @ENKELI

What normally helps to calm you down? Can you do meditation, reading, diamond art, etc?

I'm here if you want to chat.

You're a very special person to me to @ENKELI

Oh @ArraDreaming did I say something wrong?

@creative_writer do you have placement straight after the semester finishes? What week of uni are you in?

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 I pray, what other people would call mediation. I'm okay now and am about to throw a remade spinach and ricotta cannelloni in the oven for dinner.

How are YOU feeling?

Only 8 days to go - have you pre-ordered your copy of TTPD?

Re: Not Coping

Okay @ArraDreaming

I use the balance app, and it's so good. That sounds yummy.

eh, next question @ENKELI

No, I can't afford it. I have Youtube music, so I'm sure it will be on there. You have it, don't you?

Re: Not Coping

@ENKELI I hope you are feeling better now. Sometimes it is wise to step away when so much is happening for you. Sending you lots of hugs, I know things have been rough for you 💖🫂

I wonder if the flu vaccine has anything to do with how I’m feeling right now too, I just got it today at uni. Tomorrow is another day, I can try to study tomorrow
