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

@hanami yeah, we are all a little different like that, aren't we?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Definitely @Kyle1 . Where I used to work at community mental health we had some participants who would have genetic testing to see what meds would work for them and what were less likely to. I considered that at one stage. Thought it would be helpful and was curious but decided against it in the end.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Everyone metabolises medication differently. I’m actually having a blood test done to check how my body metabolises drugs, cause I’m on all sorts of sleep aids yet my sleep is still terrible

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah probably a good idea I’m going to take it earlier tonight so I can get up in time for work tomorrow @Kyle1

Re: Tw Not Coping

How was the art gallery today? Did you still go along? @Birdofparadise8

I found an art piece today, too. I took a picture to share it with you...

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah but the wait was over an hour for the VR.

To be honest I’m so exhausted I’m barely awake @Kyle1

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Bow Are you getting the pharmacogenomic test I was wondering about it myself but I think they are expensive.

Re: Tw Not Coping
