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

I think I'll enjoy it @creative_writer . It's not for a few weeks yet. I'll tell you about it once I see it.

Good to see you online anyway @creative_writer

Re: Tw Not Coping

I don't know what to do @tyme. I've been going over it all day.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 , I think the thing that scared me the most was knowing that it could mean I was "maimed" for the rest of my life. What quality of life would it be then?

Life IS worth living. It may not feel like it is now, but one day, you will look back and think about why you even considered SI, or SH....

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I’m okay. SANE had queues today too, sort of gave up and hung up. I hope you do get in soon too

@tyme I’ve just been a bit less active lately. Life is hectic with uni, assignment due on Monday 😬

Re: Tw Not Coping

Why would it damage me permanently other than being traumatising @tyme?

Maimed means damaged, right?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I don't know what you are going to take @Birdofparadise8 . I'm just saying that often it turns out wrong. This was also a serious warning for me from my psychologist. He'd seen too many 'broken' after an attempt gone wrong. He said it is the saddest thing to see young people never being the same again. Even if some lose a limb or whatever. I've been so close many times. I wouldn't want to go there.
