I can’t cope

[Captain24]

I have a really bad chest pain @Ru-bee and my breathing is regular. I’m really trying. 

[Ru-bee]

Hey @Captain24 how are you feeling now? Have you been able to go back into the session?

[Captain24]

The second session was on psychosis and substance abuse so it wasn’t too bad. I’ve only had one minor psychosis so it wasn’t triggering at all. 

I have calmed down and just gotten home. I was going to have a bath but I feel the need for some sleep. Today took a lot outta me @Ru-bee 

[Ru-bee]

Yeah, you gotta listen to what you need right now @Captain24 

Proud of you for getting through today and looking after yourself! I hope that when you've had some rest you can have a moment to pat yourself on the back for the last two days

[Captain24]

Thanks @Ru-bee 

I had a much needed sleep but still feel really drained

Thank you for supporting me today

[Ru-bee]

Any time @Captain24 😊

The past days sounds like it's been a whole lot for you, but you've gotten through it! I hope you can have a nice restful night tonight and feel a bit recharged tomorrow

[Captain24]

@tyme Are you around? I don’t feel so good..

[tyme]

Hey @Captain24 ,

Sorry to hear you don't feel the best. 

How was the second session today?

I'm in and out tonight a bit. Got a fair bit to prepare - as you'd know lol

[Captain24]

Hey @tyme 

The second session was hard. I had to take a break. The facilitator was good about it. He checked on me. 

Tonight I’m not feeling overly safe. I’m having thoughts. 

I just went and got takeaway and I looked at the bar. I don’t drink and I really won’t one.

Im not doing ok. 

Im guessing you have a lot to do! At least you are looking at it tonight and not Sunday night. That’s a positive.

I'm glad the facilitator was understanding @Captain24 .

It was very brave of you to step away and be able to focus on your self care.

Remember, there is a lot of change going on for you at the moment. Your feelings are valid. You are not wrong or faulty for having these reactions.

And yes, I've got the presentation to go through and revise. I just saw some more notes I need to add to it.

My brain is a bit full at the moment 🙂
