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

Mmm okay @creative_writer

I was getting off the train and someone said I was passive aggressive so I must be then. I don't like feeling like this it's making me spiral.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, many people can be passive-aggressive occasionally, and it's okay, we are imperfect. Managing big emotions is hard work. Like yesterday I lashed out, but do I usually lash out like that? No. Does that mean I am a hostile person who can't always manage anger? Of course not. Most of the time I keep my anger locked inside. We all slip up sometimes, you gotta learn to forgive yourself.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I guess so. I'm not good at forgiving myself @creative_writer.

Anyway enough about that. How has your day been?

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, today has been better than yesterday, still depressed and feel kind of stupid, but that's just part of it.

Hi lovely @Kyle1, how are you?

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, it's fine, I wish I didn't realise about the consent module today. So anxious about what to do. Don't want to do it in case it is triggering, but don't want to apply for an exemption in case it reveals too much about me. Don't know why I'm letting it eat me up. I know I shouldn't care about what others would think.
