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, no, I had to get referred to the first community mental health team, who referred me.

@Kyle1, you're dealing with so much 😞 , I hope you find some relief soon.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Right okay. Sorry to ask so many questions. Was the HOPE team good, or did you find it beneficial at all, @creative_writer?

@creative_writer thank you.

I don't know how... 'cept these unwanted thoughts

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to stop by as I can see there was a little uncertainty about sharing some potentially sensitive and triggering experiences around suicide and suicidal ideation to share a guiding resource that might be a helpful reference for you all. I hope this helps but feel free to reach out to the team or tag @ moderator if you're not sure or further clarification would be helpful 😊 @creative_writer @Birdofparadise8 @Kyle1

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hi @TideisTurning

How are you today?

Is it okay, though, what we mentioned?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hey @Birdofparadise8,
I'm travelling fairly well today so far thank you 😊
There wasn't anything anyone's said outside of the guidelines to be clear- I'm sorry if my post caused anxiety around that. I just wanted to share that resource in case it was helpful as some of the themes of the conversation here felt relevant, just in case that helps in knowing what might and might not be ok to share related to suicide and suicidal ideation. I hope that helps clarify!

Re: Tw Not Coping

All good @TideisTurning

No, not anxiety. I just thought I said something wrong, but thank you for clearing that up.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I found them really helpful.

@Kyle1, unwanted thoughts are really hard to deal with and having to deal with them everyday requires so much strength. 🫂💖. Do you think talking to SANE would help. I spoke to them earlier when I was feeling really awful.

Hi @TideisTurning, nice to see you. Have you been up to much today?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Okay, maybe I should look into that then.

What are you up to this afternoon, @creative_writer?

In response to: Re: Tw Not Coping

Re: Tw Not Coping

@creative_writer yeah, I did try that.

Unfortunately I did not find respite...
