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

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!

Re: Tw Not Coping

I've been trying so hard to do things, but I'm not sure if that's enough anymore @tyme.

Sounds exciting a little shop sounds fun.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, that’s true. Supervision is key in professions like social work. I just hope I can get through it alive and help others. Sometimes it feels like I don’t know if I can. But anyways, I don’t want to dump too much on you. You’re not doing so good yourself.

Hi @tyme. I hope you had a good day.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I don’t know anymore. I’m sorry. I’m on the edge and getting closer to my limit. I’m sorry I can’t support you. I don’t want to trigger you, maybe I should leave right now.

Re: Tw Not Coping

It's okay @creative_writer. You do what is best for yourself. Can I ask if are you talking about suicidal thoughts?

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, yes, I’m okay right now, but really need to de-escalate things, red flag behaviours have emerged.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Okay, that's good @creative_writer.

Did you ever go to ED on your own?

I am currently contemplating if I should go or not.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I’ve been in ED before. Do you feel like you are at imminent risk?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I am unsure @creative_writer

I just don't know what to do.
