Can you do something to distract yourself, maybe watch some tv or have a bath?

I could watch TV, but it's in Spanish and I get frustrated I don't understand it. Option 2 is impossible due to no heating or hot water. I don't really feel any better this morning. Not sleeping well. Should probably go to doctors but they'll probably think it's homesickness.

Hey, I hope the bowling helps a little bit, or at least distracts you :jumphug:

Sorry I wasn't online last night when everyone had problems :frown:

(but at least that means the lorazepam plan worked for me, I guess.)

Parents should be arriving soon, then we just have to work out what to do with the day. My vote? Spend some of that money of theirs :colone:

That is definitely impressive, well done to her!
Im sure they'll be fine with it whatever you tell them :smile:

Good luck with it! :hugs:

I'm not, no. I don't know what to do. I asked my sister about it and she just pulled a face. Neither of us like him but that doesn't mean we/I shouldn't make an effort for my mum. I'll go to the corner shop tomorrow, for a card at least.

That's nice, sure she will appreciate it. Must be hard to know what to do when you don't like him, with good reason. :hugs:

Why is getting up so hard? :yawn:

Does your uni know anything? Are they supporting you? Things can still get better!

I have no idea, I'm still in bed. Don't think I could be any less productive right now.

Had a moment yesterday evening where I was hiding in my room from my unfriendly flatmate's loud and drunken friends from home, feeling really sad because the guy I like hadn't texted back ( :colondollar:

), when I just kind of had an epiphany and thought: sod it, I'm going out. Went to the rock society weekly event, which I hadn't been to before because I didn't know anyone, walked in alone and socialised with the people there which is an absolute personal nightmare of mine (not knowing anyone and going alone) but they were all lovely and it went well and I'm going back next week :biggrin:

I know it's the most difficult thing in the world to do... but sometimes forcing yourself out of your comfort zone and taking the plunge can really help.

Also I finally said to GP about depression, she did one of those tests with about ten questions on me and apparently I have 'mild depression' :dry:

Mild my arse. To be fair the test only applies to the last fortnight and I haven't felt suicidal in quite a while :holmes:

She didn't want to recommend medication though, she wanted me to go for CBT which I already know would not really help that much :dry:

Has anyone else lied on those tests? To look... I don't know, less crazy? I didn't exactly lie, but I didn't mention that I have felt suicidal in the past, and so on...

You feel like this now, but only a day or two ago you were thinking about the possibility of running for an SU position, and seemed quite positive about uni. I think it's important to remember how much your mood can fluctuate with depression (something I should probably keep in mind myself), and that when you're at a particularly low point this is not a good time to be making important decisions.

Remember we're always here when you need us.

Facebook really is a ****ing ****. But you have to remember that people will always construct a superficial identity for Facebook - an identity that they ideally want people to see them as. Just because people post endless photos of themselves being 'happy' doesn't really mean crap. But I've been there, and I've deleted Facebook many a time. It always has a habit of making you feel even worse than you already do.

Spoiler

just really can't deal with it right now, feel way too **** without facebook.

You know what really pisses me off about myself?

I know that I have things that I need to be doing. I'm meant to be heading up to a sports hall right now to cheer on my uni basketball team. I could either be getting ready to go there (gonna go a bit later I think) or I could be doing work, or tidying my room, or doing some washing up, or putting laundry in. I could also be asking my housemates for their bill money. But no. I'm sat in bed, reading ****ing food threads on TSR, mentally berating myself for everything that I do and don't do.

Like, I get the urge quite a lot recently to do work. Really do work. Then I get down to doing it and it's like... urgh, I don't know this, I don't like this, what is the point. :sigh:

Tis ok, I wasn't expecting fantastic things, although I wasn't prepared for it to be this bad. Problem is my GP can't refer me to anyone else. So kinda stuff in a hole...

:hugs:

How are you anyway? :smile:

Maybe it's just a matter of time for you + talking therapies. Drugs are so hit and miss for brain stuff. I feel 'lucky' that prozac is levelling me out a bit though, it doesn't seem to help for some. :hugs:

right back atcha

:smile:

Had a good night with my housemates last night. First time I've felt 'ok' in ages. We watched Serenity and I got a bit drunk without getting teary.

They're a little creeped out with how I am generally though. They don't really know how to treat me. Have had about 10 hours' sleep in the last 4 nights. :frown:

So desperate to be able to switch off...
