Red's house

Red's house

Hi, I haven't been here consistently for a little while. Shutting myself off felt safer. I was formed after being suicidal last month. I needed to remove myself from online worlds for my safety and that of others. I'm doing better now, I'm just stressed out.

I enrolled myself to full time study at tafe in a few weeks. Getting that all done pushed me to my limits. But im looking forward. I have dreams. I have hopes. I have desires.

I want to pursue my business and my art talents. I will be doing a cert iv in business to give myself the skills to thrive in this. I want to have a future, which is great but scary. It gives the opportunity for failure. But also success. I got this.

Breathe, Red, breathe, create you're safe place. This thread I'll be hanging out more and try not to be too down or hard for myself. If anyone wants to hang out at my place they are always welcome.

There's always tea and coffee, with biscuits if desired. In this winter the fire is on and we can Chillax

I'm in the process of trying to get all my belongings. It's been hard few days.

I'm tired and overwhelmed. I've not been sleeping properly. I still can't believe what happened.

It's been hectic weekend.

I seriously still can't believe what happened.

I'm doing okish surprisingly I didn't sh over the weekend. I'm proud of what I achieved.

Maybe this new home will be a fresh start. And it could be a positive change.

Hey @The-red-centaur just catching up on what's been going on for you.

Wow that must have been overwhelming having to move with such little notice! It's pretty incredible that you were able to get everything done in such a short time and be feeling alright about it.

That positivity is a real testament to your resilience, I really hope this is a positive change for you too.

Thank you so much. I can't believe what is happening. But I'm trying to embrace it. Hoping things change for the better.

Re: Red's house

I've been struggling with life again lately. I had some wins lately with getting of the antipsychotic, with moving into a new company and not hurting myself so far. It's just stuff is piling up in my head lately and I feel like no one gets it or is listening. I tried to call a helpline overnight and they just didn't seem to hear me out or even want to.

I am really struggling to communicate my distress to my new support workers. I don't know how they will be able to help either.

And I saw the pain specialist yesterday, and they were like yep, you're doing ok, you are doing the right things, etc. But I'm like no. I am in several pain and i need help. And it's like I just waited the 2 years to see them for nothing. I feel invalidated and alone.

I feel like no one understands me, no one hears me. I feel trapped, alone, shut down, and small.

I don't know how to manage anything right now.
