Something’s not right

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

Hi @creative_writer

My favourite show is RuPaul's Drag Race because it make me laugh and smile every time I watch. It's just fun. BUT I do love crime also and mystery/thrillers. Psychological thrillers that sort of thing. I loved White Lotus...how about you?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hi @tyme, how are you going?

Better than yesterday. I guess I was really questioning life and stuff.

Yes brownies are so yummy hahaha @hanami

Re: Tw Not Coping

So glad @Birdofparadise8 that you feel a bit better than yesterday. MH is a little unpredictable eh?

For me, sleep is like a reset - I can either wake up totally okay or totally no okay and it is not reliant on the night before.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 - remember, that the 'questioning life' often comes down hard on us in the evenings. It's what our brains are meant to do. If you have this understanding, it may help you realise that it's okay that we often feel 'crap' later in the evening, particularly when the sun goes down.

I was like that before. My anxieties rendered me immobile in the evenings...

Now? Meh? I couldn't care less lol
