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: Not Coping

I think it would be worthwhile sharing this with your pdoc next time @Birdofparadise8 . Perhaps you can work on strategies to help you get through that time? e.g. mindful breathing, diverting your thoughts etc.

Do you keep writing notes/diary entry/journal of your mood etc?

Also, it's important to remember that you only just received that letter from someone you always used to speak to. It takes time for that hurt to heal.

Do you mean psychologist by (pdoc)? @tyme


I don’t get abbreviations sometimes hahah.

If so we talked about it on Thursday all very dark and gloomy stuff. I do already try meditation and all that but nothing seems to help. Yeah I write stuff in a journal and I use the daylio app. Yeah that’s true about my cousin though.

I really scared myself though today.

Re: Not Coping

Yes, pdoc - whether psychiatrist or psychologist.

I'm glad you were able to speak about it today @Birdofparadise8 - that is very courageous of you.

I'll be logging off now, but I will speak to you sometime tomorrow.

Please take care, tyme

Re: Not Coping

Hello hello! @Birdofparadise8 ! I just logged on.

I've been pretty good today. I've got a lot of things on my plate to get done, so I'm looking forward to be able to write and list and check them off!

It was pretty pleasant here in Melb today. Warm. A little humid. I think it'll rain a bit later though.

What did you get up to today?

Re: Not Coping

That’s good to hear. I’m just trying to finish off an assignment it’s driving me insane. @tyme

Re: Not Coping

I don't think I've ever asked, what are you studying (only if you want to answer - no pressure) @Birdofparadise8 .

I'm having a break from studies, but I am looking at courses.

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

I am studying a Bachelor of Nutrition Science.

What courses are you looking at @tyme

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

Nutrition Science is sooo awesome! I've done bits of it as electives, but not the degree itself @Birdofparadise8 . I'm looking into more social work and health.

Don't know though. I'm looking to see what comes my way. I'm not going to go out there and just pick one. I'm a believer that it must come pass me because it's a national priority that aligns with my interests...

Most of my degrees have come about that way.
