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

Oh what type of insurance @Jynx? Do you have to make a claim?

I have a class from 11:30 to 12:30, then I have a session with my psych at 13:45 - to either 14:45 or 15 something, depending on how long he goes over. The past month has ranged from 15 to 30 min over, so I have no idea when we will finish. It's not like I'm complaining. I'll definitely stay longer, hahaha. There are way too many things to say, lol. I was annoyed last week that I didn't say anything, as he had something he wanted to bring up (me people pleasing). So, I'm going to mention it tomorrow and make sure I do, even though it's from four weeks ago now. I was going to mention it in the session before that, but I ran out of time. Then I have another uni class at 5:30. If I end up going, I'll see how tired I am and how much work I've got for the research assignment.

Re: Not Coping

Sounds like a good day. I saw you had a talk about a garden or something and then were asked to work extra, but you couldn't do it @ArraDreaming

I hope you enjoy the lol concert, hahaha.

Re: Not Coping

Oh no @Jynx. Did they leave a note? What car do you have?

Yeah, I will after dinner with some TV. I might try to go for another walk around uni and see how my hip goes. It's still sore, and even my knee is still sore today. Oh, and maybe diamond art while I watch the TV.

Do you have any hobbies other than gaming? I'm pretty sure you've said you do that.

Re: Not Coping

Yes YouTube on the tv @Birdofparadise8

Ah expensive for full paying families but actually we get a pretty good rebate not gonna lie so that cuts cost down a lot, like significantly… we will still need to use a couple days of child care and we have one at kindy which is free for us being an Aboriginal family but me being home will make a difference for sure…. Also I would just prefer to be home with them, since my accident I have struggled with 5 days a week physical labor
