Not Coping

[Birdofparadise8]

I didn't get into HOPE @creative_writer 

Comm MH won't help me. They think I'm okay when I'm not.

I spoke to someone from SCBS today @Jynx That helped at the time.

I have used the Sane support line before with good results.

I just feel like I am on a slide with no ability to stop me from slipping.

[Birdofparadise8]

What's wrong with me? 

Why can't I just have one night that I don't have to cry? I've been alright all day, and now, nope. 

[Snowie]

I'm sorry @Birdofparadise8 

Have taken over your thread.

Sometimes crying helps it out, helps with the tension built up in our bodies.

[Birdofparadise8]

Oh no, nothing like that @Snowie 

I don't mind. I was just saying what's happening in my screwed-up brain. 

But crying every night or nearly every night. 

[Jynx]

I'll wait at the bottom and catch you @Snowie 💜 

Agree with Snowie @Birdofparadise8 crying sucks but it also is our body doing what it needs to do in the moment to release tension. 

[Birdofparadise8]

I guess so, but nothing happened today. I've been alright. Why can't that stay for the whole day @Jynx

@Birdofparadise8, it’s terrible how it’s hard to access supports when you need them. I am sure there will be other peer support workers floating around, they might come at a cost, you would have to check. I just know HOPE, Sane and efriend have peer support workers. Not sure where else you could look. Sending you hugs 🫂

That's okay thank you @creative_writer
