Something’s not right

Re: I can’t cope

Yes my back is radiating down to my hips. @NatureLover. I just need to get over it and stop whinging. 

My safety depends on who is around. I was in crisis one day and was told to keep doing what I was doing. So now I get concerned. 

I got to sleep around 2:30. 

Hope all is well 

Re: I can’t cope

I am safe. 

I don’t want to live anymore. 

I want it all to be over

Sorry. Don’t realise you were around @RiverSeal. I’ll go. 

Re: I can’t cope

Hey @Captain24 I get that not all people get on and maybe you and RS have been at loggerheads in the past, I actually don’t know but your comment could be quite dismissive and could be perceived as a bit rude towards someone offering their help and could be implied like “oh, you’re here eye roll :face_with_rolling_eyes:”. If you have an issue with somebody and they are doing their best to offer you support, a thanks or nothing at all is probably a bit kinder than implying their mere presence is an issue for you… I like you Cap don’t get me wrong nothing personal, I just think if you want this to be a safe place as you have mentioned then you have to be part of upholding that too. No matter what you are going through on the other side of the screen people still deserve a little respect and basic kindness, you essentially posted a cry for help and then when that help  was offered that is what was given in response, wouldn’t you too be hurt if that was you? 

Re: I can’t cope

I have time for you too @ArraDreaming.

 

Im not going into it. 

Im not up for a disagreement 

Re: I can’t cope

Nah didn’t ask you to disagree or agree with me, just that if you’d like this community to be safe and respectful we all have to do our part and I didn’t think what you said was that if it was the first time I wouldn’t of said anything but it’s not, people are offering you help as you seem to be wanting and that is the response they are met with…. Hmm. 

Re: I can’t cope

Ok… goodbye. 

Re: I can’t cope

Hey @ArraDreaming @Captain24 @Bow @NatureLover ,

 

How's everyone today?

 

Hope things are okay. Hope you can join the Live Sunday Chat tonight 🙂
