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.
If I called the MHT I don't think it would end well @Birdofparadise8. Ive only ever called them once and my Nurse rang me first thing the next day.
It takes a lot for me to call a help line. If I’m calling it means I’m in real trouble.

You should be proud of that! @Captain24 That kind of colour coordination really satisfies me. Usually I have white sheets, but my dog kept jumping up with her muddy little paws and so I opted for a darker colour. Hopefully this helps it not look so dirty so quickly

Re: Tw Not Coping
@amber22, yes, time will tell what his name is 💖
@Birdofparadise8, it’s hard for kids not to take bullying at heart. Sometimes kids can be cruel, it can make it hard to feel emotionally safe with peers. It’s not okay to be bullied, but sadly, it happens. I won’t go as far as saying I am okay, but I am not on the edge of a crisis. Yesterday was quite awful. Today has been a bit better, but have a long way to go.
@Captain24💖, I hope you don’t have to wait long and get put through to someone. I do tend to find it really helpful to talk to SANE. I’ve had good and not so good experiences of mental health triage, so feel you.

Re: Tw Not Coping
Yeah it sucks a lot I just hate thinking about it sometimes it’s awful.
Oh okay well I’m here if you need a chat I hope you’ll be a bit better tomorrow after a good sleep @creative_writer. I’m glad to hear you’re not at a stage of a crisis. My friend at dancing says if I’m not okay and not happy maybe I’m just meh would you say that how you feel. I might have you totally wrong on that so just let me know if I am.
