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

A lot of people have said I am very self aware of my emotions, so I am not sure if that would help @creative_writer

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I’ve been told I’m self aware since I was around your age, but I think my self awareness is on another level now. It doesn’t stop. My psych is trauma informed so I’ve realised so much from smaller traumas in childhood to bigger traumas. It’s brings more clarity to my thoughts.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hey @Birdofparadise8 ,

Can you clarify what you mean by whether I can speak to people on the forums and on the GS?

As for 'knowing' when you are ready... i guess it was when the page turned. My brain just sort of clicked and that was the beginning of a new beginning.

It was the point when I was sick of being sick. Sick of not seeing change, and ready to push through to see change. To challenge my unhelpful ways of thinking so that I'd learn to do things differently.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Ah okay @creative_writer would the bullying count because how does it when people go through things way worse.

Does it help to become more self aware once you process things?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I was just wondering if you’re able to still chat on here if you talk to a person on the GS. Like if you talk to person x here can you talk to person x on the GS.

Does that make sense?

Sorry for going last night I was so tired @tyme.

I am just curious that’s all as my Peer worker I speak to thought maybe I should talk to someone else as the last couple sessions it seemed to be that my mood dropped when we talk and then my suicidal thoughts get worse. I’m not saying that don’t at other times, but it seems to happen when I talk to him and not when I talk to other people.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 i have 3 days to become a lawyer! Overwhelmingly absurd, I know. Yet, such is life.

I'd rather stay in bed and grow mold.

Re: Tw Not Coping

And I really should try harder to find the positive things...especially to share
