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

@Birdofparadise8, I’m sorry you feel that way. I think parents often feel guilty if their children are not happy, I feel mine feel a bit guilty. The reality is, they can’t always save their kids from the ugly realities of life

Re: Tw Not Coping

No, they definitely can not, @creative_writer.

I just wish I could help her understand I've tried so many times. I'm just not sure what to say or do.

Also, I won't be at the group chat tonight. I don't really feel up to it.

Hello, @creative_writer @tyme @Bow @Eve7 @Shaz51 @Kyle1 @Captain24

How is everyone tonight?

I've had two TMS sessions today, went for a run and studied. My exam on Tuesday is four and a half hours long. I'm definitely not looking forward to that.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hi @Birdofparadise8, I’m okay. How are you feeling? I hope the hospital stay has been helping. I hope the exam prep and exam go well for you, 4.5 hrs is a really long time
