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

@Kyle1 🫂💖🫂💖. We are here. The intensity of pain peaks, but it also gets easier. It’s about getting through the height of emotions, you’ve got this.

@Captain24, I hope your dad feels better soon. I’m sorry about vitiligo, I have relatives who have it.

@Birdofparadise8, what’s up?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Just life is a pain and no one likes to give me an answer to if I have some thing or not @creative_writer

Like @creative_writer said these emotions will peak and then pass @Kyle1. Maybe having an early night bed might help.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I just went out walking this afternoon... And this sense of loss and grief gripped me. I felt lost at sea. @Birdofparadise8

Without place or purpose or people. I reached out to a friend and feel ghosted.

I am so glad you guys came in tonight. Truly 🧡🙏🫂

Re: Tw Not Coping

I'm sorry you were ghosted @Kyle1.

May I ask how the walking related to the sense of loss and grief?

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 💖🫂💖🫂.

@Kyle1, I am a bit perplexed how similar our emotions are tonight. I guess we were destined to talk tonight and support each other.

@Captain24, I do hope your dad gets out soon too.
It’s the skin disease Michael Jackson had.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I walk by farmlets and gardens and livestock and it reminds me of the home I have been dispossessed of. The life stolen. Family I thought I had... Core values betrayed. Love shredded. @Birdofparadise8

Re: Tw Not Coping

At least I’m with someone famous @creative_writer

Just watching so tv @Birdofparadise8 then an early night. I’m tired after driving today and I have to do it again tomorrow.
