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 @Former-Member

I know the past few days have been hard, but I'm here for you.

I do hope you decide to stay here because you mean a lot to everyone here and me.

You are such a kind and caring person. I always love seeing your messages pop up.

Sending you lots of hugs. 🫂 🥰 🌺

Re: Not Coping

I have no motivation today and feel so sad; I'm teary, so lonely.

I feel like I'm so broken. Ever since Saturday, I've felt so low.

I hope I'm not spiralling because I don't have university. I do have exams, but other than that, there is not much, so there will be even less contact with people.

I am going back to Hobart to surprise Mum on July 1st, so that will be nice.

Hi @Birdofparadise8
I'm really sorry to hear you're feeling this way.

It's okay to feel sad and lonely, especially when you have a lot on your mind. Remember, it's just one step at a time.

Surprising your mum will be a wonderful moment to look forward to. In the meantime, maybe try to engage in activities you enjoy?

You're not alone. ❤️

Thank you @lavenderhaze

Yeah, I don't know what's wrong with me. I feel like such a failure.

Yes, it will be nice, though I have a few job interviews, so I won't be able to go if I get a job.

I don't know what I'm enjoying right now. I feel so defeated, empty and like I'm nothing.

I'm sorry you're feeling this way, but please remember that having these emotions doesn't make you a failure @Birdofparadise8. ❤️

It's okay not to have everything figured out right now.

Taking it one day at a time and focusing on what you can control, like your job interviews, can make a difference. What jobs are you interviewing for?

You're worthy, even when you don't feel it.

It's for a ward clerk in ICU @lavenderhaze

I have an exam on Friday.

Re: Not Coping

Wow, an exam on Friday? Best of luck!

ICU is such a crucial area, and being a ward clerk there is no small feat. You've got this @Birdofparadise8! Hope it goes well 🙂

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

Yes, I had an exam on Friday last week.

Yeah, it will be interesting. I worked in ED last year and that was tough. My mum applied for this job so I hope it won't be too much. I would go home and cry every night. @lavenderhaze

Re: Not Coping

How did the exam go @Birdofparadise8? I hope it went smoothly for you.

It sounds like working in ED was incredibly challenging, especially with the emotional toll it took.

Did you find it difficult?

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

It was alright I guess.

Yes that and not having good training to support me. Plus difficult colleagues and management.

It was awful. I didn't realise Mum did an application for ICU until it was too late aka getting an interview.
