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

That's so good to hear @Birdofparadise8 . I certainly found my supports in VIC - like no other state. I moved states to VIC too. I'm so glad I did.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I'll definitely be supporting you through the move @Birdofparadise8 . Hopefully you can connect with more supports here asap.

Have you looked at Project Air's peer-led groups for BPD? They are held online. Project Air is based in NSW.

This might be a good start while you are waiting?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Thank you @tyme that means a lot. I really though need something in the short term for now because I am really struggling right now and just keep getting so many road blocks in the way with my risk factor and all.

No I haven’t I will look into it.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@tyme it may be a form of disordered eating but don’t think it’s at ED level. I never went to therapy for it because I felt too stupid to talk about it. I think it is about being able to control food. I also prefer when things go to plan and get very anxious when they don’t, life throws a lot of uncertainty, which is scary.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 , please do. It would be a good start. The people who oversee it are lovely - I've spoken to them a number of times. Not for therapy - just for research.
