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

@Birdofparadise8, it’s totally possible. Mine was over years too.

I don’t think I’ve tried it. My options for takeaway tend to be limited. Being Muslim, the meat I eat must be halal, and even then I have food intolerances to certain food. That’s not to say I don’t like eating takeaway every now and then.

As if I didn't know you are Muslim @creative_writer.

I am not sure they are Halal. I know a butcher in Tas that was Halal, and the food from there was so good.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, there are still plenty of options in my area, it does narrow it down a bit. I often kebabs takeaway when I order out.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, what do you usually eat when you get takeaway?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Indian, Mexican, Italian, or fish and chips @creative_writer

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, sounds nice. I also like Asian food. I can only eat Indian food provided it’s not too spicy. Mexican and Italian can also be good. I don’t really get fish and chips, I mostly just cook my own fish and have it with salad or vegetables.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah, Asian is nice as well @creative_writer.

I don't like my fish in the batter; I only have it grilled or crumbed, but I don't have it very often either.

I would have loved to cook it at home, but my mum hated the smell of it.

Also just found out my Aunt had to cancel because she isn't feeling well, so that's not good. I was really looking forward to catching up and, there was a lot to discuss she also needs to give me my meds. I just hope she gets better soon so I can catch up with her.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hello, morning to everyone online!

Does anyone know much about somatic therapy and how it differs from seeing a clinical psychologist?
