Lucky duck get a night off 😄

Are you listening too Taylor Swift?

I have so much in my head it's spinning I feel Soo depressed today

@RiverSeal i feel like a jungle mentally down 🧡❤️

I have been listening to Taylor Swift so much lately that I just put on a chillout playlist on Spotify atm. I'm sure I will listen to her later!!

Went we have these thoughts going around in our heads it can be that we are not happy in other ways and our minds are just filling the space with these unwanted thoughts. Our minds are like a machine that never stops, and it needs to focus on something so if we control what we think about we can control these unwanted thoughts. This is a distraction technique, and we can ruminate about good things too if we make an effort to focus on these good thoughts. When we are in a better place we can then think more proactively and constructively about the thoughts that were worrying us and work out how to deal with them.

It can also be really helpful to talk about them and let out the steam or get it of our chest. Would you like to talk about the thoughts, and we can work through them together today?

Here for you @Sunnyside226 ❤️

Yes I would love to let it out and chat to you but I don't want to be selfish and chat to you when you could help someone else who needs it

I have done so much this yet now I may of rolled into the floor crying telling myself I can't do this anymore I never thought this would be so hard to do one baby is asleep the other 2 are just playing around in their room

This is all making me feel sick i feel like a fat balloon about to explode @RiverSeal

I feel like I am just wasting your time and everyone's else too 😞 ❤️

It's so lovely that you are concerned about other forum members but I'm here for everyone and can give you as much time as you need. So, you are 100% not being selfish or taking me away from supporting someone else. I don't want you to feel like you do on your own and I'm here for you @Sunnyside226 ❤️

Have you spoken to your partner on the phone recently? I know you miss him a lot and you want to hug him if you can.

You are strong and resilient and taking great care of the children and I know you are doing your best. It's ok to feel overwhelmed at times and crying is ok too. It's good to let out your emotions rather than bottle them up. I used to cry some much for years and it was a good thing to do for me.

Have you eaten something today or can you do something to settle your sick feeling like a hot pack or something maybe?

Let's chat a while and catch up as it's been a week or so!!

RiverSeal ❤️

No I haven't eaten today

I spoke to him the other day when I did something bad I think that's why I am still feeling this way

How's your week been @RiverSeal ?

I want to make my head happy but I don't want everyone too thing I am stupid, I feel really depressed worthless right now i am about to have a breakdown @RiverSeal ❤️😞❤️😞❤️

That's good that you spoke with him the other day. Do you want to talk about what you think is bad that you did?

It's been a good week thank you @Sunnyside226! I socially transitioned recently, and everything is like a whole new world to me and I'm really enjoying it. I worked from Wednesday to now except for last night and Australia Day so actually I've had a pretty cruisy week.

It might help if you have something tasty to eat what do you think? It might help settle your emotions and distract your thoughts for a while.

People won't think you are stupid because you're not happy and being depressed and feeling worthless if not a nice space to be in. What have you done in the past that help you get through times like this?

Have you looked at the Guided Service with SANE? SANE Services Referral Hub Having regular sessions with a Counsellor or Peer support Worker could help with these thoughts that you are experiencing.

I'm here for you so we can work through your emotions together!

Not being mean or anything please don't think I am is transitiond the opposite sex? Please don't answer if you can't or uncomfortable

I had a slice of bread with Marmite

I don't know if I allowed to say what I did it was bad and even the boyfriend wasn't happy with me

At that time I didn't have the kids so I was all good

Any plans for tonight? Or you working till late? @RiverSeal ❤️ also thanks for the tag this morning I did ask for you but I couldn't remember when you're on

It's not mean and it's good to ask clarifying questions if you don't understand @Sunnyside226 . Yes, social transition is part of the process of transitioning to a different gender. I was assigned male and birth and I'm transitioning to female. I identify as transgender and use they/them pronouns and I now present as female to the world all the time which is my authentic self 😁

Well, a slice of bread with Marmite is a good start and if that's all you want then that's ok. Just remember to eat when you need, and it can help with your emotions too. What about a cuppa or something if you feel like it?

Ok, you can email me if it's something you want to talk about off the Forums, and I can support you with that via email too, team@saneforums.org It might be good to talk about it and there is no judgement from me or anyone at SANE so please feel comfortable to tell us anything. If it's outside our scope of support, we can refer you to a service that can support you.

I have a friend coming around maybe so that will be nice to catch up with them. Today is my chores day too so will be busy washing and cleaning unfortunately hehe. I have leftovers from Australia Day so might have a cold sausage sandwich or something tasty later, yummm 🤤

I'm working until 4 pm today and remember you can tag me anytime and I will still get the post even if I'm not working on the Forums. I work during the week in another role with SANE and will still respond to you during the week.

RiverSeal ❤️
