This community is a place created for the people of Melbourne and Victoria. We are a positive, welcoming and inclusive community. We might not agree about everything, but we always strive to stay civil and respectful.
The focus of our discussions is based around things that effect Victoria, but we are also free to discuss our local perspective on wider issues. Or head to the regular Daily Random Discussion thread to talk about anything.

Psych: if you could wake up tomorrow and what's holding you back could be solved, what would that look like?
Me: I would have consistency and routine, be doing a job I enjoy, having enough fulfilling social time and not feeling hopeless. But I have control over those things and maybe I wouldn't feel hopeless if I have those things in check.
Psych: do you need me?!
We discussed hopelessness as something that comes up trying to be helpful when we aren't meeting our expectations. Understanding why it's there allows me to sit with it better. Also did an ACT meditation for sitting with emotions. At least for me, things feel shitty, but they never really end up being as bad as they seem in the long run.
