[Former-Member]

@Pepsimax, what's going on?

[Pepsimax]

Everyone think I am doing well but not i want everyone to be proud of me i have the voices in my head i hate everything

[Former-Member]

Who is everyone @Pepsimax? I'm here too. Did you speak to your support worker today? Thinking of you 💜🤗

[Former-Member]

Oh, I know the stress of wanting everyone to think you're doing well when you're not. We all try to be strong for others.
Do you have a doctor you can contact and let them know you're not doing well?
And you know that if you're not doing so good you can contact lifeline and the suicide call back service? Some people find them really helpful.

@Former-Member no I don't talk to my support worker today it's to late now my friends and family

[Pepsimax]

I slept most of today

 @Pepsimax I'm glad you have people you care about and obviously they care about you too. Im sure you haven't done anything wrong for your loved ones to not be proud of you. At the moment it's just your voices that are telling you this. I'm sure @Former-Member can offer some help re the voices as it's not something I experience but im here and listening. 💜🤗

It's ok if you slept @Pepsimax, I have days that I lose like that all the time. What can you do now that will help you calm a bit. Would it help to colour in now for a while. I know you planned to today. 

[Former-Member]

@Pepsimax, do you know of anything you can do right now to quiet the voices?
I find tv really helpful, but others find music to be good too. Also simple distractions can work- I knit and I bake. But you could colour in like @Former-Member suggested?
