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

It's 36 degrees here @Birdofparadise8 - so you better be prepared when you come!

I'm on the forums for a bit, then I'll be jumping into the pool.

As for blood types, that's something I never understood. So whether you tell me you are O+ or A+, I really just don't get it lol!!!! Put it this way... I was never interested in finding out! So much for being a science teacher!

I'm glad you understand it more than me 🙂

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 have a bad migraine now 😫, I’m not sure if I can do much for it, painkillers don’t work. I want the emotional and physical pain to stop.

@tyme pool sounds like a good idea on this warm day.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh no that sucks why doesn’t pain killers help?

A massage around your neck and shoulders might @creative_writer?

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 none of the painkillers are strong enough, I guess I would need to get a prescription. I could message. I feel like my blood vessels around my temples are really tense. I also feel really depressed which doesn’t help. I don’t want to be here anymore, but I have to be here.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I feel you there @creative_writer its hard to keep fighting when you don’t want to. I don’t want to either, but got to stay for family.

I hope your migraine goes soon.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, my brain tries to convince me nobody will miss me and this makes it hard to resist. I know I have a safety plan and all and that I can call a helpline or triage. But I’m too afraid of it not helping.

Re: Tw Not Coping

We really are on the same page here.

Do you find your safety plan helpful? I don’t seem to always find it useful.

Can I ask are you safe at the moment @creative_writer?
