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

I am very familiar with those feelings. I empathise, Laura.

Has there been a particular event in your life that has generated these feelings?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I was bullied at school my whole life, about ten years @Kyle1.

It was the worst thing to ever happen. What people said to me made me not want to be alive anymore, and still do. I have literally turned into my own personal bully that I can't get away from.

Re: Tw Not Coping

oh, that's awful, Laura...

I doubt there's a quick fix for something like that. I'm sorry @Birdofparadise8

Do things like that still occur? ...

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah I'm not sure how I will undo ten years of pain @Kyle1

I believe everything that every person said to me and I still do and its shaped how I think and feel today.

No not anymore.

Re: Tw Not Coping

yeah... it's like when nails are hammered into your door. And there might be hundreds of them!. But even when you manage to pull them out, you still have to live with the holes...
