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

Have you ever hugged yourself @Birdofparadise8 ? I remember reading somewhere that it can make a difference. Even just the sensation.

🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂💚 oh dear @Birdofparadise8

Can I share something one of my counsellors has me do when I break down?

You place your hand over your heart with warmth and gentleness. Breath slowly, and with love. Think of one of your most favourite things.....

Repeat....
