Support for Flowerlove22

Re: Support for Flowerlove22

@rav3n  I've only ever travelled to new Zealand / Tassie.   I haven't really thought about others places  but we are saving up to  go to England or something down that line. 

 

Have you have been off Australia?  

 

Yes I have other love heart that  that tells someone  what state mood I'm in and I've been 🖤  since yesterday morning 

 

I'll try to ask @Ru-bee  when she's next in if she's comfortable answering   and Jynx too if I remember to ask  💙

 

I tried to draw some but I wasn't In the headspace so I ripped it 

If your ever comfy I'll love to see what you draw @rav3n     if your around today would you have a coffee/ tea with me and sit with me?  

Re: Support for Flowerlove22

Don't care too much 

 

I wish dad was here  I want to cry life is too much right now 

Re: Support for Flowerlove22

Hey @Sunnyside226 🙂 what were you going to ask me?

Re: Support for Flowerlove22

@Ru-bee  I'll ask later 

 

I'm screaming I'm crying.    I want the pain to go    I wish he was here to sit with me I need him      

 

 

Re: Support for Flowerlove22

I'm sorry to hear you're upset right now @Sunnyside226 Did something happen?

Here if you need to talk about it

Re: Support for Flowerlove22

Hey @Ru-bee I'm sorry I was rude to you earlier. I never meant to be rude I'm sorry 

 

I've gone down hill with mental health.  I don't like sharing that because I'm worried people on here will judge or laugh 

 

sometimes  I don't know how to explain what's going     the thoughts have been bad and dark  I think it's because I want dad he's not around.  i went to visit him on Saturday.   It felt like the time to be with him   i miss him more then ever  

 

I'm all alone I'm alone in this I'm in a mess   

 

@Ru-bee   I don't want to annoy you with me issues 

 

Re: Support for Flowerlove22

That's okay @Sunnyside226 I didn't feel as though you were rude to me at all

 

It's okay if you don't feel able to talk about how you're feeling right now. I can just sit with you, or we can talk about something else if that's helpful?

Re: Support for Flowerlove22

Just sit with me and talk about anything please @Ru-bee   have you been knitting anything lately?    

 

My question I had for you if you are comfortable answering 

 

What made you be a peer support worker?   What do you find interesting about it? Etc like you want learn or just be there for others.   

 

@Ru-bee feel free to not answer I'm just getting to know everyone different sides has to how and why they chose peer support 💙

Re: Support for Flowerlove22

Yeah, I just finished knitting a beanie and a balaclava @Sunnyside226 and I'm about to start on a cardigan. Trying to make a few warm, cosy pieces before winter

 

Have you been doing any drawing lately?

 

That's a good question. I didn't originally set out to be a peer support worker, I studied to be a counsellor, but I wanted to do that because I like listening to people and wanted to have a job that felt like I was doing something good, and I'd had my own times when I'd needed support and wanted to be that person for others. I got into peer work once I'd already started working in mental health and realised all of the different roles that exist that I didn't know about when I started studying years ago. I really enjoy it and feel lucky to be able to do it as my job 🙂

Re: Support for Flowerlove22

@Ru-bee  what's happening with me I feel  trapped and the thoughts are there 

 

That sounds nice to knit that  does it take long?    Have you ever knitted socks? That would be cool 

 

I did one drawing last week I draw a puppy 😀 

 

That's a cool thing to study to be a counsellor that takes a lot of patience to do   that good you put yourself out there  find things you wanted to be/do. @Ru-bee      I don't know if I understood right.  But  do you find having the same issue has some people help you to understand?    ( Sorry if that didn't come out right)    

 

Also I don't know if you have kids but will you watch the new Movie?
