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

Hi @tyme

How do I know I need to go to ED?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hey @Birdofparadise8 ,

How was your day?

As for your question, I'm not sure I can answer that one for you.

I don't think I ever took myself to ED. I was made to go with police and ambulance.

Re: Tw Not Coping

My psychologist appointment was crap, she just kept saying mmm that whole time, and I didn't really like it.

I am unsure what to do as my SI is getting stronger @tyme.

How are you?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I wish I was @creative_writer.

I'm literally sitting here crying, contemplating things.

How are you?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh no, really I guess with the social work stuff, it might bring up things for you @creative_writer

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, like I really want to work as a social worker but sometimes I feel like I get triggered so easily.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Maybe that's something you will work on over time, and you will also have all your training behind you to deal with the triggering things @creative_writer.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Maybe now, it's about you utilising the skills you have learnt and give yourself the credit for your own recovery @Birdofparadise8 ?

I'm doing pretty well. I'm trying to organise my house. I feel I just have stuff everywhere.

I'm making a little 'shop' for my nieces and nephew. I'm going to my some mini squishmallows, some toys, treats etc for the shop so they can buy things. I told them the shop is only open one day a week. And they are only allowed to spend the money they earn from doing chores. So my niece was making the shop stand from cardboard boxes.

Welcome to the world of kids!
