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

That's okay to feel that way @Birdofparadise8 When you have the energy, try and do something that might make you feel a bit less down at the moment, is there something you can watch, or maybe go for a walk?

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, it is what it is. I once saw a dietician, he thought it was a leaky gut.

@amber22, it’s really hard. I feel like there is so much stigma around mental health and suicide. I feel like I’ve let family down for being mentally unwell. I have to keep my mental illnesses hidden so I don’t bring shame to the family.

Hi @Shaz51. I hope you are doing well 💗

Re: Tw Not Coping

I completely agree, there is so much stigma around it, especially when feeling sadness or depressed. I am sorry that you have experienced it too, sending lots of virtual hugs, and hoping that this discussion tonight helps us with our feelings ❤️ @creative_writer

Re: Tw Not Coping

Thank you @amber22 I am trying to get onto the webchat but it doesn't seem to be working. I would call but my dad will be home soon.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hmm I wonder why it isn't working. If you feel like a quick chat before your dad gets home it might be worth calling in for a few minutes, we're here for you 💓 @Birdofparadise8
