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

@Birdofparadise8 it's a mockumentary (sorta like the Office, where the characters speak to the audience) about working in local government, and it's very funny 😁

Re: Tw Not Coping

Not much really @Birdofparadise8 - might do some laundry, some writing, just potter about. What about you?

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yeah not sure now I thought I needed to cook, but I might have enough now from dinner tonight.

I will probably try my best to not spiral I guess @Jynx

Re: Tw Not Coping

Sometimes worrying about spiralling can itself begin a spiral @Birdofparadise8. Focusing on the simple stuff might be good - cooking if you have the energy, going for a walk, maybe something artsy.
