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

Nothing planned for me, @Birdofparadise8 .

I'll be spending the day like a lost soul, I reckon. Seems to be my new normal, sad to say.

Re: Tw Not Coping

You really must live far away, @Captain24. Why isn't there much where you live?

I have a session with a peer worker in the morning, a mid-sem exam for biochem, a catch-up with my aunt and a tutorial in the avo.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Aww I'm sorry, @Kyle1.

What did you get up to once you left out chat earlier?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I live in a small country town. There is 10000 people here. @Birdofparadise8. I live 4 hrs from Sydney.

Sounds like you have a busy day. Good luck with your exam

Re: Tw Not Coping

I cooked dinner and picked my youngest up from cub scouts. Her first night: which she loved.

@Birdofparadise8

You doing a little better? You had some t.v. time?

Re: Tw Not Coping

That's nice. What did you have for dinner, @Kyle1? I had lasagna.

Aww how cute. I hope she enjoyed it.

Um, that's debatable. Sorry to say night time is always hard for me, as you know though not as bad as Saturday night with my distress level and what happened with my regular from KHL.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah. @Birdofparadise8 Most specialists. I had to drive 1 1/2 hrs for an MRI. Most medical

procedures. You just get use to it. My biggest concern is if they do biopsies tomorrow and I leave late, I’ll have to dodge kangaroos on the way home in the dark.
