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

Thank you @Kyle1

Has anyone had to report you about your SI and how did you cope?

I just feel with my situation someone someday might.

Re: Tw Not Coping

No.

I have been reported for things I haven't done, though. That has been traumatic and life altering. @Birdofparadise8

Re: Tw Not Coping

Right, okay sure @Kyle1

Didn't you say one time the police came to your house to check in on you?

Have you been to ED for SI?

Re: Tw Not Coping

That's right. The police came to my house after I told one of the SANE moderators I was reading poetry ... You know how they send you the email?...

No, I haven't been to ED for SI. I have been for anxiety, stress seizure, and collapse.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah, to see if your safe. So I am assuming you weren't, so the police had to come. Gosh, that must have been scary @Kyle1. I am sorry.

Ah okay.

I hope you don't mind me asking.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah, it was strange. @Birdofparadise8 I had been through the mill and mincer, was short on help, and some guy with a pistol and pepper spray comes to " Keep me safe" ... from Mary Oliver!!

I was thinking: why not send a counsellor? Instead of a constable...

As sick as people may be with MH, so is the system.

but my trauma is before that occasion
