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

I can’t even be bothered to have a shower so that’s saying a lot @FloatingFeather

Sitting with you and sending you hugs.

Hello, friend.

I'm sorry to have missed you last night... for some reason I've not been receiving notifications these last few days...?

Just been reading back on how you were longing for the day to be over and done with. I know the feeling. I had an unfulfilling day but hit the meds hard and knocked myself out by nightfall.

Sux, doesn't it?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I know right it’s sucks so much @Kyle1

Though I had a much better sleep today and got up at 6:45 and went to the gym. I feel so much more refreshed today and I have a GP appointment shortly and then uni today.

Do you know anything on bipolar?

How are you this morning?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I really don’t understand myself. How Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday I was feeling absolutely awful and today I’m feel really great and not sad at all. My aunt was wondering if I have type two bipolar at all but I don’t think i would as I haven’t had a manic episodes so I’m not too sure.

Maybe I’m just have a good day who knows.

Anyway hope everyone is well @creative_writer @Captain24 @tyme

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, your doctor would be the best person to talk to. There is a difference between mania and just being in a good mood. Maybe keeping a mood diary would help. I also don't think it's unusual to have short bouts of not feeling depressed even in major depressive disorder, I think the criteria is that you feel depressed most of the time.
