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

I know I kind of hope I’m better by the time I am 25 because I feel like I utilise them so much.

It definitely was!

Do you shop at Aldi @creative_writer?

Hey @creative_writer @Birdofparadise8 @Shaz51

This mood is really scaring me. I will send my nurse an email tonight explaining what is going on. She doesn’t know about last Monday yet either.

I won’t be able to see her or talk to her until Wednesday afternoon and hopefully she can help me understand what is going on.

I see the psychiatrist in 10 days so hopefully I will have settled down by then.

Im back at the beach so hopefully that helps

sorry I have put all this on you guys

Re: Tw Not Coping

No all good @Captain24 that’s what we are here for. Did something happen on Monday?

You could try a meditation I find that helps me sometimes.

Can I ask are you safe at the moment I really care about you?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Thanks @Birdofparadise8. Monday was a bad night. I most definitely wasn’t safe.

Meditation doesn’t work for me.

Im with my family so I am safe now. Thanks for checking

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I don’t really go to Aldi often. I’m not usually the one who goes food shopping. You have a lot of potential, I hope you get better soon too.

@Captain24, I hope talking to the nurse helps. Could you request an earlier pdoc appointment? Might be worth getting meds checked.

@Birdofparadise8 and @Captain24, I don’t really sit through a guided mediation. I find grounding (using five senses) is a lot easier. Maybe I’m too scatter brained. We all have our own ways of winding down. Some people like showers, some people use prayer, listening to music or nature sounds. It all depends on what works. I also love imagery and talking to my imaginary friend, who I still haven’t named.
