Someone to talk to?

Someone to talk to?

Currently waiting in queue for SCBS. Never tried this line before.

Im not feeling okay today. Shits hard. Im so alone. Noone is replying because its Saturday night. Im not feeling okay. It looks like it shouldn't be this hard but it IS. I feel like Ive got massive blinker lights on flashing "I AM NOT OKAY" and its falling on deaf ears and blind eyes.

I feel like im speaking a different language.

Shits hard. This is hard. Please stop telling what I need to do. Please stop telling me this is a phase. Please stop just trying to get me to breath. Its not helping. ........ 😞

Hey @fruitisgood, just thought I'd chime in here and respond to your questions to @NightHedgehog.

The Forums are a public space to connect and support each other modetated 24/7. They are not a space for indiviaual connection and meeting others to engage in a more devoted intentional space. The Forums are anonymous and our Guidelines "Staying Anonymous" maintain that anonyminity for all Members.

The socail lines are in a public space where everyone is able to read and engage in every thread.

Great question and thank you for asking!

@REDLINEZ750 hope youre doing well. This weekend has been a rough one. I feel like I did nothing. Even took a sick day off of work. Questioning my current choice of career. Tried another helpline the other night and got told by the person "what youre feeling is incredibly common and not different and everybody has gone through what you have." It grated me as I despise when people downplay ptsd stuff like that. Also they didnt even ask.

Hi @fruitisgood

Sounds like a disappointing experience and invalidating your feelings. Thank you so much for reaching out on the forum and sharing this frustration, I hope you feel support from your fellow forum members. Everyone's journey is so different and it's important that you get the unique support to help you on your own path. Please continue seeking support and talk to someone you trust about your career choices - perseverance is something that comes across in your post. Make sure you be kind to yourself tonight and do something to show yourself some compassion.

Take care

Re: Someone to talk to?

wow some people should not be answering phones without realising the harn passing thier own bad day or problems onto a person through the phone can do @fruitisgood.

you would think that they are even ringing in first place would sugest they are in bad space, mate even if there ignorance had truth to it ( to be clear im not at all saying it is) even then you show compassion and empathy not give unvalidating judgement.

saw a similiar experience on another thread yesterday and my senses say im going through it now with a new psychlogist so im watching them watching me its not very therapeutic but i must be sure hypervigilance isnt driving my opinion.

how you doing now?

i just got on for day
