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've been out walking. It is brisk and raining in jerks. So now I have resigned myself to a few moments exploring music @Birdofparadise8

I get a song stuck in my head and often can't find the right rendition of it, but I listen to a lot of them anyhow..

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh no I am sorry to hear you've been having a tough time recently 😞

Is there anything you can do tonight to make yourself feel a bit better? @Birdofparadise8

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah I’m not sure I’m literally out getting dinner and they are playing the suicidal song and I’m just like great @amber22

My aunt said it was a near miss with me. I have been pretty close to hurting myself.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Also spoke to my psychologist on Friday that was interesting she wanted to get an ambulance which I didn’t want @amber22 so we compromised with KHL and said if I didn’t check in by a certain time they would sent police for a welfare check.

Did I tell you that SANE called police on me on Wednesday?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh I am so sorry to hear that, I am really glad that you've opened up and told me that, I really appreciate it. I'm here with you.

I had no idea that the police were called! That must have been a bit of a shock for you.

What are you getting for dinner? @Birdofparadise8

Re: Tw Not Coping

Thank you @amber22

It was very difficult. I sent an email to the peer worker on the GS, and then the next day, I have a miss call and email from the local police station to call them back. Though I did clear things up, and they didn't bother me again, it still was a shock I didn't want to be in trouble or get them to like to send me to the hospital or something.

I was in contact with KHL a lot the past week it's been very hard. I will actually be talking to my regular tonight just to check in and see how things are going.

I spoke to someone yesterday, which wasn't helpful though they just told me to do a facial and I'll be fine.

I also have my psychiatrist's appointment tomorrow, but I don't really have much hope for that and that it will do anything.

I am having sweet and sour chicken. What are you having?
