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

Hey @Bow

Are you inpatient at the moment?

How are you going with it?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yes @Birdofparadise8 im inpatient. 2 weeks tomorrow. The private facility is much nicer than the public. ECT is pretty rough but hopefully it will help.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I usually take my children out on Friday evenings, but it's rather chilly today! We're staying in by the fire.

But, there's nothing like the atmosphere of being at the footy, too! Have a great night @Birdofparadise8 Will it be hot dogs, or pies?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hi @Bow,

I'm glad to hear you are feeling a little better this afternoon. It sounds like you have had a pretty tough day so I am sure you are tired and could do with a good rest.

Thank you for letting us know how you are getting on - thinking of you and sending you lots of good wishes.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Kyle1, stay warm by your lovely cozy fire💖🫂. I’m cozying up today, can’t be bothered to shower, in so much pain. My hair looks awful after I massaged some oil in it too I’ve got my emotions to blame for the severe pain. Life would be easier if emotions made more sense

Re: Tw Not Coping

yes... but then if emotions did make sense, they wouldn't be what they are.

And it's true: some of them are wonderful!

aren't they @creative_writer ?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I hope so, too @Bow

Yeah I'm just eating before hand @Kyle1

Hey @creative_writer sorry about the migraine.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Kyle1, emotions are something. It is true you can feel wonderful, but I’ve been stuck in depression mode for so long. It’s either been depressed or depressed + intense agitation (high energy state of depression). The euphoria seems to have melted away, though that wasn’t good for migraines either, high energy states never are
