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

@tyme, I haven’t actually done all the prep work for tom’s classes lol. Not really my fault with migraines, doing physically better now. Been feeling sort of lonely this evening. I guess I haven’t socialised much lately. What have you been up to?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Just working to get myself organised for things lol. With it being so warm today, I didn't really feel like doing much. @creative_writer

I don't feel like I'm in a routine yet. So I'm still working on it. The Christmas/New Year break is such a long one for me that it takes me a quite a while to get back into the swing of things.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@tyme, getting organised can take a while for sure, it’s already end of week 1, and I still need to get organised. I guess being on uni break for so long makes it hard. It’s like, all of a sudden I have so much to do. Hopefully, I’m not the only one who hasn’t finished their prep work. If I get time, I could do it in between classes. I’m also planning on going early, my first lecture is in a building I’ve never been to before. Navigating uni is another task itself.

I hope you’re able to get into the swing of things soon, the warm weather doesn’t help. It’s only going to get much warmer too. Have you seen prediction for Friday, it’s almost 40c.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yes @creative_writer ! I did see! Arghhh.... I was going to jump into the pool, but I don't think I can spare the time on Friday.

I might have a swim tomorrow instead.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@tyme, a swim sounds nice. Haven’t been swimming for years. A bubble bath would also sound nice too. We have a tub that never gets used. I also have an amazing scented candle, a lil freebie from an online order. I am definitely a sensory person. I love scents, skincare and hair care stuff, and don’t forget beauty rollers and gua sha. However, if something smells unpleasant, I can get pretty nauseaous and feel sick. Maybe migraine brain?
