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 no @creative_writer what happened?

I'm here for you.

My day has been alright, but I do feel my mood getting worse. I'm feeling a bit flat and sad.

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 depression + agitation (bad energy)= disaster

I hope your mood doesn’t get any worse 💖🫂

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, probably because brain couldn’t decide between depression and mania, so did a weird combination 😫

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh ok, that doesn't sound fun @creative_writer

Is your mania not levelled out?

Re: Tw Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, I’ve been noticing mixed states since last year, I thought the manic side had levelled out after meds dose upped, it just came back. Humans brains don’t always make sense

Re: Tw Not Coping

Hi @outlander

I'm feeling a bit flat and sad hope I don't get worse after this boring class. I think it will, which sucks after having a few good days. I don't know why I can't feel like I did yesterday or other days last week.

How are you? Did you work today?
