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 @amber22, don’t think I’ve seen modern family and I haven’t watched Kalidescope.

@amber22, even research shoes you need more than 10 sessions. I hope the katsu chicken turns out good.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Completely agree with that @creative_writer

You should give modern family a go, it is really funny and a really lighthearted watch! Thank you, I hope your dinner is nice too 🙂

Re: Tw Not Coping

@amber22, just realised I typed in “shoes” instead of “shows”, I’m laughing at myself. Might look into modern family. Dinner was good but doesn’t beat my mum’s cooking.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@amber22, nothing does beat it.i feel like I can use the same seasoning as my mum but it just doesn’t turn out the same. Then, I’m not much of a cook anyways.

I feel like my emotions are slowly taking a another turn. I sort of assume by default that people will think I’m unworthy and unloveable because of the things I went through.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I definitely agree with that, nothing beats mums cooking, I don't know how they make it taste sooo good @creative_writer

Aw, thank you for sharing how you're feeling with me right now. It is hard because our past is something that can be so prominent in our own lives because we have lived every day of it (the good, the bad, and the ugly), but it is also something that we can choose to share with others or not. It is our own special past that we can choose what we share with others (if we choose to share at all!) This brings me a lot of comfort when I think about what others might think of the things that I have been through too.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@amber22, I just want to be loved and cared for as I truly am. I feel like nobody sees me, and I’m afraid if they did see me, what they would think.

Re: Tw Not Coping

You are so loved and valued on this forum ❤️ @creative_writer It is sometimes hard to believe (I struggle with this too) that others can love us with all of our past and baggage, but you really are so loved and valued on this forum

Re: Tw Not Coping

@amber22, I know it’s depression talking. It’s just so hard to believe someone cares. I guess if you don’t love yourself, it’s hard to accept love from others. I love being on the forums and talking to the amazing people on here too 💖
