Re: not coping

I think I would guess correctly if I said you hun @outlander

You certainly go above and beyond for your sisters

Sounds like you have your hands full with your pop. Just when one room is clean its time to clean it again 😒😒

Hope your day is going well.

Re: not coping

yep exactly @Snowie its frustrating sometimes.

my counsellor is on this evening and im wondering if i should connect with her. ive done 4 weeks in a row so far and its kind of starting to feel like i always do with offline counselling so i dont know whether to skip this week and try for next week or just try and do the session today

Re: not coping

I would connect with her hun @outlander Sometimes I think I don't need to see my psych but I start talking and all these things I thought I had dealt with come rushing out.

You have had such a hard week hun. You might feel ok today but that doesn't mean you have been ok all week. If you are starting to make a connection with her so why not continue that.

Re: not coping

i dont really feel ok @Snowie its just getting really hard to talk again. when i was going every week/fortnight with previous counsellors either online or offline i just couldnt really get any words out and felt like i wasting their time and mine as well.

Re: not coping

However much or little you talk hun you are not wasting anyone's time @outlander You have just as much right to counselling as anyone else. But ultimately it is your choice.

Re: not coping

I know it must be hard when your words won't come out little one but if you are not feeling right I think it would be best to contact her. I have no trouble with words nor does Izzy but we still feel like we are wasting Nat's time and Sean's money because we don't seem to be getting "better". You are a strong young lady and you have so very much happening for you that I think you need to at least try talking to her tonight. Izzy and I care about you @outlander amd it pains us you don't get the support you need and deserve. Please reach out. 💜Nikki
