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

Sounds like one of the 'crappy' evenings? What do you think would help @Birdofparadise8 ?

As for poetry @creative_writer , I had someone read me their poetry - wow! I could hear the NH journey through the poetry they wrote throughout their MH journey. The ups, the downs and the down right hard days. It was amazing to listen to them all. The poems were so real, so genuine, so honest....

I'm thinking yours are similar?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I some how don't think it is weird to have depression and migraines. I think it is all interrelated. Like one is connected to the other? @creative_writer @Birdofparadise8

Re: Tw Not Coping

@tyme I have a lot of depressing poems. I’ve written poems during mania, but it seem the pure manic periods have deserted me. I’m depressed or agitated depressed. I’m the former right now, thankfully.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@tyme, I just hate my life. My migraine went away earlier today and my mood was starting to get better, but it didn’t last.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Actually, that's what I heard @creative_writer - that the 'real' poems come out during a manic episode?

As for @Birdofparadise8 , I'm so sorry tonight is so crap. I wish it was better for you. I'm really thinking whether the move is a subconscious anxiety which is contributing to these feelings?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I really don’t know I’m just sad and feel so alone and don’t deserve anything @tyme

Re: Tw Not Coping

@tyme, like I was more likely to write more poems simultaneously, like I remember this time I wrote like five at once, I flipped back and forth. I’ve even wrote them when I couldn’t sleep. When I look back at them, they seem weird. Life doesn’t seem that awesome anymore.
