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

Not sure an enemy, but it usually can lead me to spiralling and feeling worse @tyme.

I suppose it depends on the day.

True @Birdofparadise8 . I guess it's about your 'relationship' with crying and whether it is perceived as a negative thing that can ultimately affect one's behaviour.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Okay, I'm not sure I 100% understand what you mean @tyme.

Re: Tw Not Coping

For example, if we see crying as 'negative', then if we cry, it makes us feel worse. However, if we can work to see crying as neither positive or negative, then the result make be different e.g. not going downhill from there. Remember, when you look into things, people cry because they are sad, but people also cry if they are happy.

Therefore crying does not necessarily equate to sadness.... @Birdofparadise8

Sorry if i'm confusing you

Re: Tw Not Coping

Okay, I understand that, as you can have happy tears and sad tears, but since I've been on here, I don't think I've had many happy tears. They have all been sad ones.

I do see it as a positive crying as a whole @tyme.

I feel right now where I am at with my depression. It's more negative because I'm already struggling with this empty void of sadness and loneliness. I don't feel like I'll be crying because I'm happy for a while yet.

Sorry, I'm not sure if that makes sense. I'm a bit over the place right now. I want to cry or go to bed.

I just hope once I leave the hospital and when I go home for a week. Then when I come back, I will be feeling a bit more stable. If my mood is going to be like this in four weeks' time and I'm not in a hospital setting, I could attempt. I have been having my plan cross my mind here and there while I'm in the hospital, but I obviously can't do anything in here now.

Now I'm just going into another tangent sorry.
