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

Yeah mental health is hard. It’s important to have strategies in place to help yourself in between sessions. I hope your psych is able to help you abit more tomorrow

Re: Tw Not Coping

I hope so to @outlander

I'm not doing well at all, and I feel I'm going back a 1000 steps. I'm just so disappointed in myself and where I am at. Everything is just too much for me right now.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Could be a good idea to speak about your medications to your psychiatrist or gp if you feel they aren’t helping as well.

Re: Tw Not Coping

I don't see my psychiatrist for a month, and my GP won't touch them @outlander

Re: Tw Not Coping

Ask if you can bring your appointment forward @Birdofparadise8 sometimes meds take a couple of weeks to see a difference though

Re: Tw Not Coping

OMG, I just finished an online chat. The lady I talked to said gosh look we need to finish and I said oh okay right. Then she just ended the chat. I was just about to say something @outlander.

That is why I only like KHL.

Re: Tw Not Coping

WeChats are limited in time @Birdofparadise8 when on there’s it’s best to focus there as well compared to here and the chat. You can always do lifeline WeChat to talk about what you were going to say or you could try journaling it. Up to you what you want to do in this case
