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

Yeah, fair @ENKELI
except I been here since like 2017 or something and been through a few changes and it’s been ok
@Birdofparadise8 making friends is really good and great to be social on here but do you ever wonder about attachment stuff

Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

The changes are okay if everyone is on board.

Attachment to certain members do you mean @ArraDreaming

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 let me reassure you my princess that I have no desire to leave and while I was concerned about proposed changes I feel confident that we will still have a forum to chat on.

I think @Former-Member needs time to reset and we appreciate that.

I'm praying for them, just as I pray for you and everyone else I've been privileged to chat with.

Please don't get too stressed for now okay? 🫂💙

Re: Not Coping

Yeah but I also think in a community like this not everyone will always be on board….. people can be consulted and things will be done to fit in all the preferences people have said but will always be people th y maybe don’t like it or it doesn’t suit them I think that’s just the way it is @Birdofparadise8 think they try to fit what everyone wants in but it’s not realistic to cater for everyone all of the time you know

Re: Not Coping

Thanks @ENKELI

I had a bad dream about all this, which upset me. I don't like it when people leave. It hurts.

I guess so @ArraDreaming, it's just hard.

Re: Not Coping

That is true. I have a current friend, and I am trying to determine whether our friendship will continue because we both want different things.

Never say never, though. If you're a CG, you can help people. @ArraDreaming

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 it stems back to those feelings of rejection we both fear.

I will be upset if🦩 leaves too but I am also wanting what's best for them.

Let's focus on other things okay? You have @ArraDreaming who is an awesome person and who is there for you too, plus we have chat tonight.

It's a sad grey day here in Perthville, a little chilly but not toobad yet.

How's Melbourne today?

Not sure where you are Arra, How's the weather in your little pocket of Aus?
