TW: Vent - Chat
Hi,
We can chat here if anyone wants to talk about depression or something.
Life is just feeling pretty crap, things don't seem to be improving. Still feeling sad, alone, etc.
I'm safe. I'm not having any suicidal thoughts, and I'll call KHL if I need to.
Hey @Red_Flamingo hope you're going okay, how has it been with covid, I've been busy these last few days trying to recover myself but I'm finally back on my feet. How are you doing?
Hi,
That's good to hear. Do you have any neck pain still?
I'm alraigth covid wise. I have a bit of a cough, but that's about it.
Nice to hear from you.
That's good. What are you doing tonight and tomorrow?
I'm just on here and watching tv. I'm trying to find a good keyboard to go with my mac. Would you have any suggestions?
Hi, sorry my day has been very eventful I had a job interview today and I've been trying to figure out how to do this assignment that's due in a few weeks. How has your day been?
That's okay. How was the interview, and what type of job?
What's the assignment?
I've been alright today, up until a little while ago. Just started to feel flat. I'm safe, but I'll call KHL if I need to.
I think the interview went okay but I guess I'll find out later. The assignment is an essay and I'm trying to make sure I do it right.
The essay is from the perspective of a human service worker working with youth write a 1500 word essay on the types of adversity and deprivation that you might observe in your current or future career and how it impacts a child's emotional development and behaviour.
It's the career path that I'm interested in, so it's been really nice learning about.
I actually made that lamb ragu recipe you suggested for me and it was so damn good thank you so much for that suggestion, the person I cooked it for loved it also.
I'm so pleased you enjoyed it.
Did you cook it for a roommate?
Or like for a date?
I want to cook it again now hahahah.
Did you ever find the chicken at aldi?
I'm cooking honey soy chicken legs and fried rice tomorrow.
It was for a date night haha. Very fun to cook together. Chicken legs and fried rice sound amazing.
Nice how long have you been dating?
If you don't want to share just let me know.
That's good.
I'm talking to a guy but I'm not too sure I'm really into him. We have been on two dates.
He says good girl to me with things that aren't remotely deserving of that and I feel that's what my dad would say not a future boyfriend. I asked him why he says it and he said because I do everything right. I'm like right okay. Ah no definitely not.
If you're uncomfortable with what he's saying or doing it's okay to tell him about your boundaries and that these things make you feel uncomfortable. I understand it would be hard to bring it up with him. I'm here to support you and help you figure out how to approach that if you would like that.
Hey,
I asked him why he said good girl and it's because I apparently do everything right.
Which I definitely don't.
How are you? I hope your neck is okay I've been thinking about you.
My pdoc just called to let me know I need to increase my morning medication as well now. My levels are still low. Sigh, I hope they will pick up once I have the neck blood test.
I had a busy day at uni today. It went well. Friday is even more busy. I'm seeing my uncle on Saturday.
I'm baking a brownie it's in the oven now. I can't wait to try it.
Feeling a bit sad and lonely tonight. I can't pin point why. Well I never can really say why I'm sad. It's so frustrating.
I'm safe and I'll call khl if I need.
The brownies sound like their fun to make and you'll get to eat them soon. You've had a busy day at uni what did you do today? I've just been taking a few days for my own self-care so that I can be able to help people more effectively. I'm here for you if you need me, I hope that it goes well with your uncle and I am doing so much better thank you for thinking of me.
Yeah, I'm just having them now with some ice cream, so yummy.
I had two tutorials and an online lecture.
That's good to hear. Can I ask when you're feeling distress or similar feelings to how I feel and what I've told you? What do you do?
I feel I've tried so many things, and not much is helping.
Is it okay if we talk for a bit longer?
That sounds like an interesting day, brownie and ice cream is my favourite dessert it's awesome. When I'm feeling distress I often reach out to the people around me for help or I do the things I know I'll enjoy, I've really started to express myself through art lately and things like that. We can talk for a bit if you like, what's on your mind?
