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

@tyme, this wasn’t even the first time an ambulance was sent for my MH. When I was living at uni, I’ve been sent to ED through an ambulance. My life used to be very chaotic during my younger adult years. I probably wasn’t the best person to work with either. Some said I had good insight on my MH and had lots of protective factors via social support. I had not processed so many things. I had people but felt so isolated. I think age taught me wisdom, time and the right support provided the space to process things and it’s still ongoing and having my meds adjusted around my early to mid 20s allowed stability. I feel like I have to go through the med adjusting process again😔.

@tyme

yeah it is. Emotional crisis and mental emergencies are hard enough to understand most times without someone walking in with a loaded pistol on their hip to boot! Especially when sometimes all one needs is a hand to hold...

Re: Tw Not Coping

I'm wondering whether you could discuss a medication review during your next appointment? @creative_writer

It's been a while since it's been so tough. Thoughts?

Re: Tw Not Coping

@tyme, I am planning to raise up the med issue during my next appointment. At least I don’t have much longer anymore, getting into a pdoc is so hard.
