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’m not entirely sure @Birdofparadise8 my pdoc has said that I can decide how many ECT ‘s I have and today I had my 11th.

Re: Tw Not Coping

12 is a usual course of ECT @Birdofparadise8 but my pdoc has said that I can have up to 15 here in the private hospital.

I have horrible restless legs tonight…. Even my hands have the restless feeling too

Re: Tw Not Coping

You know what? I'm not too bad. I've been very busy for like a week, so not much time for ruminating.

I'm excited, too. It feels like it's been a while since we last spoke @tyme.

Still on the hunt for an inpatient private admission hopefully I'll find out this week.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yes, keeping busy is really good as a distraction @Birdofparadise8 . Then for long term solutions, it's good to see if therapy can help you practice some more helpful coping skills.

Fingers crossed things get better.

When does uni start again?
