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

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I mean it helps a bit. Maybe you need to reassess your safety plan. I am safe right now. I hope you are safe 💗

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah maybe I will @creative_writer

That is good to hear. I’ll be fine.

I got an email from eheadspace and they don’t like that I am contacting so much like seriously.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, it’s hard. I already spoke to a helpline earlier today. I just did a chat because talking felt so confronting and I didn’t want my mum asking who I was calling. It was okay, I don’t know how much it helped, but she did try. I didn’t speak about SI though, just mostly about how I have been feeling. SI is essentially a consequence of how I am feeling.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh okay @creative_writer I’m sorry your feeling that way.

We can help keep each other safe this afternoon how about that. Would you like to do that?

I just finished my donation so it went all good.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, we can keep each other safe. I’ll be gone briefly for a 30min online class soon. I’m polishing up my ability to read Arabic. Glade the donation went well. Do you have much planned for the afternoon?

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 I’ll see how things go. I am feeling pretty lightheaded, so probably will rest. Just getting things started for the class. I’ll tag you once I am back.
