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

Can I ask has people in your family just put expectations on you to do things @outlander?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I know it has its benefits in that you become a lot more mature and resilient, yet at the same time, my heart cries for you too @outlander

Re: Tw Not Coping

Yes @Birdofparadise8 the more you try and be kind and give the more people tend to take in most cases. It’s what happens when people expect the person who is always responsible to handle everything and expect to be ok

Re: Tw Not Coping

There are some benefits @tyme but it has not been the easiest. Everyday there’s been a battle of some kind and it’s not over yet. The hardest ones are yet to come and I’m only going to get one shot at them

Re: Tw Not Coping

That would be hard @outlander

Have you had a conversation with your family?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I think I'm going to read my book and go to bed.

Thank you both for keeping me company and helping with my anxiety earlier tonight.

I hope everything will be okay, @outlander.

Have a good night, you two @outlander @tyme!
