Re: Anyone feel like chatting? Coffee/Tea ☕💕
Good Evening @Shaz51 🙂 I hope this evening is treating you and Mr Shaz well 🙂 That your both able to rest and relax as I'm imagining you've probably been working hard today (do you work every day?) I don't work anymore and often feel extremely guilty about it, but I just can't cope with it - and do feel much better not having to face it. Not that the work part of it was all bad (though I worked in Personal Care and it can be very sad), it was more all the rules . . . too many rules. I tried working at picking vegi's (tomatoes and onions mainly) and at a local sort of factory - but my body let me down there. I didn't cope with Centerlink and job mobs very well either, but now I am on a pension. It was weird, going from jumping through all the impossible hoops, to nothing - don't get me wrong I'm very grateful that they leave me totally alone now . . . just weird!

Re: Anyone feel like chatting? Coffee/Tea ☕💕
Thanks @Former-Member ..... 😊
These are difficult weeks for me at the moment ...... my story is very big, but our situation appears to be unravelling fast at the moment after being stuck for several years ...... unravelling but it is slowly coming into a clear view of his health professionals.
I just need to step up really bravely in a situation where I am not feeling very safe, but at the moment it appears to be our only way forward, so I am staving off some anxiety as I take the baby steps through this, knowing that worst case scenario rarely happens, and holding to faith that everything will be okay at the end of it all.
It's raining softly here at the moment after a beautiful morning, and I am walking by our local waterways ..... just took a photo of a bird convention on a riverside tree ..... will post the image when I get home.

Hey @Sans911 sorry for the late reply 😞 I didn't seem to get notified.
I am just not a person to clearly show or tell someone I am in a crisis even when I am moments away from attempting to take my life. I think that is a major problem of mine. I get too scared of drawing attention to myself and don't want people to worry about me.
I am glad to hear that you found these forms helpful and a place that you can reach out to when in harms way or feeling really blue. It is good to hear that you have also found techniques from DBT useful in times of need. Personally, CBT and DBT and safety plans have never really helped me when I have hit rock bottom. I am not easily brought up and can't easily stop myself from doing something when my mind is fixed.
I can tell you have a really big heart for others and that is something that is absolutely beautiful and such a great characteristic ❣
A nurse for 20 years, that is such a big accomplishment in a job at times that can be very difficult yet also rewarding. I am glad to hear there are nurses - like you that understand the suicidal patients that come through and how it is like. Some nurses often push it off as attention seeking and have an off vibe.
I also understand why you would want a switch up in roles. The best of luck x

I am so sorry to hear 😞 I do hope you are okay, although things do sound really difficult. I am glad to hear that the situation of yours is coming clearer maybe to health professionals. That is always a good step.
You have so much strength within you I can already tell 💛🐘 I hope you find some form of comfortability and a place that you may feel somewhat safe when feeling so UNsafe. That is a horrible feeling.
Keep holding onto that hope and faith of yours... Sometimes that is someone has and all someone needs Xx I am lacking in that right now. I have lacked it for years. Just need to find my feet.
That sounds beautiful and peaceful with the birds and the aftermath of the rain. Looking forwards to seeing how beautiful it is x

😞 I am so sorry to hear. That is traumatic to hear for anyone. I can't imagine what being told that would be like. I wish well for your health always xx and hope it improves soon 💛
I do! I have 2 guinea pigs, 2 dogs and a cat. 🐶
What about you?
