Safety

crying and hiding i am honestly so scared and i am not coping at all i dont even know if i will make it through the night right now.

We can both make it through the night @Eden1919 - we have done it before and we can do it again - it is just really tough to go through....

i hope so but i am so so scared and sad and i cant even i am just i total mess i really dont know what to do i feel so lost

OMG @Eden1919 I hear you. I don't know who I am, what I want, whether I even care. But I do know that what I want to do and what the reality is are completely opposing. It is so hard to explain that 'lost' feeling to those who don't feel it - so know I get it and feel the same

Hi @Eden1919 and @Zoe7,

I'm sorry to hear you're both feeling so down tonight.

Can you tell me what you guys normally like to do when you are feeling this low? Zoe, (I'm sorry it's been a while since I have been on the Forums, you'll have to remind me!) was it you who had the special room with all of those beautiful magical things in it?

Eden, I'm really sorry that Lifeline didn't feel helpful tonight. Have you considered calling back and speaking to a different counsellor who might be on the same page as you?

Sending you both positive vibes

Yes @Former-Member The Octagonal Room - on the other thread. It is a place of safety and respite for all those that need to just BE or are looking for a little company.

When I am this low staying connected here is all that gets me through. Being alone is dangerous for me so I try to take my mind off my life by being here - sometimes talking, sometimes distracting.

@Eden1919 maybe this could work for you too buddy - it has got me through many, many nights like this.

Great idea, @Zoe7 🙂 If company helps, then I'm really glad you've come online tonight.

@Eden1919, I sent you an email, it should be in your inbox now. Please respond if you can

Guess what @Eden1919 - we have spent many nights over the last week or so where you have either talked or I have tried to distract you to get you through - and so far we have a 100% success rate - so we can do it again tonight. If you think trying with Lifeline again will help then do that too.
