Re: not coping

Sorry hon @outlander had to feed everyone.

Perhaps a stay in hospital might be good for you hon, with some things getting worse. Is this something you can discuss with your supports at all?

Re: not coping

i wouldnt mind another hospital stay but it would need to be kept hidden. i dont have supports by those around me except judgment.
i dont have enough sick leave either to cover rent or bills for a few weeks so it would cause alot of stress right now @Snowie

Re: not coping

i'm sorry to hear that certain symptoms have been worsening @outlander i can see that you're open to a stay but there's other factors in the way. it's a tricky spot to be in! are there any strategies/activities that's been helping you manage for the time-being?

i wish i could do more to help, but i can sit with you 💙

Re: not coping

I'm sorry I didn't respond last night @outlander

It's hard when it feels like everything is against us. Just looking after our mental health can have so many issues.

Sometimes it feels like what is best for us is so out of reach.

I hope today goes a little better. Sending lots of love 💗
