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

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh well, not my line of work @Birdofparadise8 - more your line of work? Isn't that what you do? COVID at home work? Or is that about phoning people and asking how they are? I don't really know.

(Please don't feel obliged to answer if you don't want to)

Re: Tw Not Coping

I didn’t get overly sick @tyme but it did get worse each time.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hi @Birdofparadise8, @Captain24, @Shaz51.

@Birdofparadise8 covid really does suck, when I had it, I had really awful migraines. I hope you feel better soon.

I was okayish until now. I had my appointment with my psych and had a productive session. And felt okay for hours afterwards. But I feel kinda weird now, my heart is racing. I don’t want to overshare or trigger anyone.

Re: Tw Not Coping

That's good to know.... I thought your body would be 'used to it' so you'd feel less sick. But sounds like it gets worse! @Captain24

Re: Tw Not Coping

Ooo @creative_writer ! I was just wondering where you were, then I saw your post here.

See if you can control your breath. It may help with the racing heart.
