Am Not Coping

[Shazi55]

Please understand that it's okay.
People care about you so they'll be distressed but now they feel relived.
You are still with us and there is still hope.

I've been in recovery for a long time... and I can tell you for sure that there is HOPE
It can get so very much better.
I'm here to help in ANY way I can 💖

Hi @Shazi55 and Welcome to the forum.

I have definitely moved on since that intial post - which was over a year ago.

There have been some very tricky times - and I still struggle with similar issues everyday but with the amazing support of people here on the forum (and some outside help) I have managed to get through those difficult times.

Please feel free to keep posting here @Shazi55 and there is also an Introduce Yourself thread here that you may find helpful  I am more than happy for you to write a little about yourself on this thread if you would like to do that also.

Hi @Faith-and-Hope How is your day going?

[Faith-and-Hope]

Awww ..... all slow and creaky I am today @Zoe7 ..... and eyes streaming with what I think is the onset of detox symptoms ...... good day to be going for a massage methinks. That means, despite feeling so crappy, it’s actually a good thing.

How have you pulled up ? I hope this late emergence means you have managed some decent sleep .......


Hi @Shazi55 ...... 👋 ..... and welcome to the forums. Have just Liked you on another thread or two. Good to see you are making your way around ......

I did get some sleep last night and then another couple of hours this morning @Faith-and-Hope - Chose to stay off the forum (and offline completely) when I was awake this morning - couldn't cope with worrying about any further 'upsets' or triggers  Still very wary so may not be here much today.

Detox days are a bit sucky so a massage will be great for you. I understand those leaky eyes - have had them since yesterday afternoon...think it is a combination of both online and offline 'stuff'- last night was especially tricky for me but I got through it - just! Even though we didn't talk much yesterday you did a couple of things that really helped me out - that meant so much to me - so thank you Hon

💐💚🦋💕 ..... hugs @Zoe7 ......

I am home now, so just going to go make the bed and tidy up a bit. Back in a little while.
