Hey @ArraDreaming, Sphinxly here, one of the moderators.

Sorry to hear you're feeling swamped with life. I can hear you're feeling pretty down on yourself. It's a shitty space to be in. From the small and far apart interactions we've had you've always been nice to me. I can tell you are doing your absolute best to cope. Life can get overwhelming then we feel like we're stuck in a rut if things don't change.

If you feel like talking to someone or need some extra support please reach out to a helpline.

Here with you,

Sphinxly

Hi @Sphinxly thanks for the reply just having a bad day 😞

@ArraDreaming 

 I don’t quite get what you mean by “you know what we are all thinking”. I hope you dont think that people here are judging you? I am certainly not.

The thing I love about this place is that here I am normal. Out there in the world I am not (that’s how I feel). I know that here people might not know exactly what I’m going though but they have their own struggles and don’t judge me for mine.

Sounds like you are having a hard day. It’s ok to give up on your day. Some days you just need to stop trying and just let it be.

What I meant was you all think I’m a f ingloser @Little_Leopard

It's ok @ArraDreaming ...that's what we're here for..to sit with you during bad days. I promise, nobody thinks negatively of you ❤️

Sometimes when we're in this negative frame of mind it makes us doubt how our friends and family feel about us. It has happened to me. I hope you can try to remember some loving moments you have had with people in your life.

@ArraDreaming  I thought that’s what you meant but didn’t want to put those words in your mouth.

To be fair I don’t think anyone here thinks like that. We are all in the struggle boat and don’t go about judging others for their own struggle.

Like you said. You’re having a bad day. Don’t make it worse by being horrible to yourself. 

do you have a self care plan. What can you do to make sure you are treating yourself with care?

Had loving moments but still a terrible everything @Sphinxly
