Support for Flowerlove22

I just checked out your music on Spotify and I can understand now @Sunnyside226 !! You have been entertaining the children with the Wiggles and are now listening to some real music huh?

Our offices are in Melbourne and Sydney so most of us are from there though a few are from other places too.

The weather sounds draining where you are! I was visiting my parents in Far North Queensland over Christmas, and it was soooo humid and I really struggled. I prefer the dry weather myself but don't mind if it's cold and rainy too. And that's one of the many reasons I live in Melbourne is for the weather.

I listing to dance music at the moment, but I like chillout and pop mainly. My favourite artist are G Flip and Taylor Swift at the moment.

Are you feeling like you did at the shops again?

Happy to chat!!

RiverSeal

Yes real music now listening to the kids music from 8_330 some real music now is soooo nice

Melbourne has funny weather isn't it like all the weather in one day ?

And no it's not the shop thing it's just thoughts now I feel empty sad low

Taylor Swift fan hey another one 🤣

I feel so emotional @RiverSeal

I feel like I'm wasting your time @RiverSeal

Yeah, Melbourne can be 4 seasons in a day!! I love it but I'm weird hehe 😂

You know it's ok to not feel great all the time and I have been through that a lot myself. Sometimes we get caught up in our emotions and things can be a bit tough. Can you identify what is making you feel like this rn? Maybe we can work through these thoughts you are having together 🙂 I know you have a lot of responsibility at the moment and has that got something to do with how you are feeling?

I bought 3 of Taylor Swift's albums 🤣

Sitting with you @Sunnyside226

RiverSeal ❤️

You're so not @Sunnyside226 I'm here to support you and we can chat anytime 🙂 RiverSeal

Any plans for the weekend ? Or you working? That's a silly question if you're here lol 😆

Do you like cooking?

I want to just let it out I feel like a big big cry is coming

I feel so bad because I told @tyme I would talk to them this morning and I forgot I feel really bad I think that's why I am a little upset more

@RiverSeal do you like games? Like uno or anything? Just getting to know to everyone 😄

I work most weekends at the moment @Sunnyside226 because I'm studying part-time at TAFE and I want to work more hours, so it leaves the weekend only. I really enjoy it, so I don't mind, and I still get things done and get to socialise too. I have been studying for 7 years this year and I have enrolled in a Cert IV in Mental Health and Peer Work this year to get the main qualification for my role.

I do like cooking, and I am trying to cook more new recipes for variety at the moment. I have a lot of bbq's too and I always have growing up and as an adult. I love steak and veggies!! hehe

It's ok to want to cry and it might feel good if you do and I'm here to support you without judgement. I used to cry all the time and I was so emotional for a very long time. Would you benefit from talking with someone like and Beyond Blue another support line? It can be good to have an actual conversation sometimes if you are feeling emotional. I used to call support lines all the time to have a chat when I was overwhelmed and emotional.

I' sure Tyme won't mind that you didn't get back to them earlier. We are all here for you so it's good that you are chatting with me know and staying connected on the Forums. 🙂

I don't play many games though I did love them when I was growing up. I did join PC Xbox recently but haven't really spent any time playing games. I always get busy and have other things to do like learning the guitar because I'm having guitar therapy at the moment and trying to learn a few cords and a song.

I'm socially transition as my authentic self at the moment if you want to know something about me. I have mentioned it a lot on the Forums if you have seen that around the place. I love it but it has been really challenging to get to this point and have had a lot of resistance from my family. My friends and work are sooo supportive and it's really amazing how well it is going. Fun fact for you @Sunnyside226!!

RiverSeal

No I haven't seen any post about you or anyone I haven't really been around I only talk to like 2 people here that's it

Steak and vegetables yum 😋 what kind of steak?

Wow you're a busy person by the sounds of it

I'm not good at cooking I burn things when I cook I cooked chicken schnitzel last week and I burnt it 🤣

I called a help line this morning when everyone was asleep

I do have a question @RiverSeal is it's about anything bad it's about this forum

Do you like pets? Do you like swimming or was that Tyme ?

I know someone liked swimming and I remember @Jynx had the kitty cats

I hope chatting to me is okay 😊

That's ok if you haven't seen my posts anywhere, I'm pretty open about it now and like to talk about it. I find it helps me and it's good for people to know about me too.

My favourite steak is rump steak!! I like porterhouse too if I can't get rump. So good!!

I worked in a lot of restaurants and picked up skills while I was working in hospitality before my MH really got severe in 2007 and then diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2016. I have been going to TAFE to get qualifications so I can have a new career and I love my job now. Still studying though and have career aspirations for the future but will stay a Peer Support Worker.

That's great that you reached out to a support line earlier today!! Did you find it helpful @Sunnyside226?

Please ask your question about the Forums and I will do my best to answer it?

I don't have pets and couldn't deal with the responsibility and cleaning up after them. I like to watch dogs run around at the park and look at cats in Instagram hehe. Jynx does have kitty cats and not too sure about Tyme and swimming sorry. Ask them next time if you are interested in what they do as I'm sure they won't mind telling you.

Happy to chat!!

RiverSeal ❤️

Oh okay steak must be your favourite then

You sound like you had a lot of hard times sorry to hear

My question was and I don't want to hurt anyone or sound rude but is this place for both genders? Males and females?

The helpline didn't really help

Now I am about to lose my cool @RiverSeal I can't I hate I am panicking
