Something’s not right

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, I have so many thoughts in my mind, but I won’t say it here. Crazy how far our minds are willing to go.

Hi @amber22. How are you? 💖

It just goes down and down, @Kyle1. It will never go back up till it passes.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Aw I'm sorry it's so hard right now, sending you lots of hugs tonight @Birdofparadise8 ❤️

Hi there @creative_writer I'm doing okay today, I hope that you're okay 💘

Is there anything that you can both do right now that might help to distract yourself from your thoughts at the minute? I've been watching 'the hundred with andy lee' the last few weeks when things have gotten too hard for me

Re: Tw Not Coping

I know I don't understand it either, @creative_writer. I hope you're safe.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I'm trying to watch The Night Agent, but I keep crying and I won't be able to stop this spiral once it starts it won't stop.

I hope your day has been nice @amber22.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@amber22, distracting is hard, I guess I could try.

@Birdofparadise8, I have to be safe, I don’t want to go to ED.

@Kyle1, have you been up to much today?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I feel distraction only works so much, @creative_writer.

Ah, okay, I've never been and still working out if I should go because I am currently weaning off my meds as I need to see a psychiatrist. Still, the waitlist is so long, and the psych triage won't listen to me for some unknow reason, so maybe if I go to ED, I would see someone that can't help me in the right direction.
