Not Coping

[Birdofparadise8]

Hi @ENKELI 

I hope you're feeling better today. 

I'll be around if you want to chat 👸🏼🫂🌸👑

Hi @Former-Member 

I know the past few days have been hard, but I'm here for you. 

I do hope you decide to stay here because you mean a lot to everyone here and me. 

You are such a kind and caring person. I always love seeing your messages pop up. 

Sending you lots of hugs. 🫂 🥰 🌺

I have no motivation today and feel so sad; I'm teary, so lonely. 

I feel like I'm so broken. Ever since Saturday, I've felt so low. 

I hope I'm not spiralling because I don't have university. I do have exams, but other than that, there is not much, so there will be even less contact with people. 

I am going back to Hobart to surprise Mum on July 1st, so that will be nice.

Hi @Birdofparadise8 
I'm really sorry to hear you're feeling this way.

It's okay to feel sad and lonely, especially when you have a lot on your mind. Remember, it's just one step at a time.

Surprising your mum will be a wonderful moment to look forward to. In the meantime, maybe try to engage in activities you enjoy?

You're not alone. ❤️

Thank you @lavenderhaze 

Yeah, I don't know what's wrong with me. I feel like such a failure. 

Yes, it will be nice, though I have a few job interviews, so I won't be able to go if I get a job. 

I don't know what I'm enjoying right now. I feel so defeated, empty and like I'm nothing.

I'm sorry you're feeling this way, but please remember that having these emotions doesn't make you a failure @Birdofparadise8. ❤️

It's okay not to have everything figured out right now.

Taking it one day at a time and focusing on what you can control, like your job interviews, can make a difference. What jobs are you interviewing for?

You're worthy, even when you don't feel it.

It's for a ward clerk in ICU @lavenderhaze 

I have an exam on Friday. 

[lavenderhaze]

Wow, an exam on Friday? Best of luck!

ICU is such a crucial area, and being a ward clerk there is no small feat. You've got this @Birdofparadise8! Hope it goes well 🙂

[Birdofparadise8]

Yes, I had an exam on Friday last week. 

Yeah, it will be interesting. I worked in ED last year and that was tough. My mum applied for this job so I hope it won't be too much. I would go home and cry every night. @lavenderhaze

How did the exam go @Birdofparadise8? I hope it went smoothly for you.

It sounds like working in ED was incredibly challenging, especially with the emotional toll it took.

Did you find it difficult?
