ahh just came off the phone to samaritans, feeling peaceful now, not as depressed. lovely lady spoke to me.
I've often thought about ringing them but been too scared to, since i get kinda scared of phonecalls; making them and receiving them. It's good to hear they are helpful though, i might try give them a ring next time im feeling crap. Glad to hear you're feeling better!

Every once in a while I take a step back (as in thinking/general and not necessarily regressing) and just think "what's going on? What do I do now?"
I might whirl up another journal and actually try to stick to it this time as the last one was on and off for two months
It'd be nice too as this year (August 2013 - August 2014) will see many changes and i'd like to to back on them changes in the future 
But I won't promise myself i'll do it though cause I probably won't

I know that i can never keep up writing a journal or diary, ill write a bunch of things when having a few bad days, then not write for a whole month >_< i hope you manage to keep one going, because it sure helps!
When I've looked back on how bad i have been and how i am better now, it does boost my confidence, since i can really see how I've changed. That said though, a lot of things i have written in the past scare me, i can't believe some of the thoughts and feelings I've had in the past

Had a good day yesterday but feeling rubbish again today 
I probably shouldn't have come on TSR because people (not on this thread) being smarmy about their great degrees/universities/careers/lives sets me off big time. (My education/career is a sore spot for me, as I do think without certain events beyond my control happening I would be where these people are in life etc, whereas my chance at life got ruined instead, probably because I deserve it).

It was an experimental thing back then (inspired by Nikki Sixx: The Heroin Diaries) so I did day-to-day, every few days etc. It did work at times because it made me unleash negative energy into typing things out. Oddly enough, when I started feeling brighter, my activity on the thing decreased. But I wouldn't want to just use it as a place to "fill up with bad thoughts and feelings", I want to fill some of it up with good things so I can see how my mood had changed depending on various circumstances.
I haven't looked back on my journal (well word document), but I can remember some days where it was like a page long due to many activities and stuff happening and then others being like 3 lines long
But yeah i'll try it up again but I think i'll start on September 1st as that's a great time to start it up Thanks for your help though
I hope all is well with you!Original post by sadpanda123

Some of us are lucky, some of us are unlucky, i just think that's how it goes. But even if we are dealt a bad hand, we can still do pretty well if we play those cards right. I hope that makes sense lol, sorry if its a bad analogy.
Remember that those people who are being all smarmy won't have the problems you have, you have an unfair disadvantage, and it makes everything a lot harder. If they had your problems they may have collapsed under everything by now, but you're still here, trying to compete on their level despite everything. That take a lot of strength

I hope all is well with you!Thanks, I've been better, but been a lot worse! x)
I also found when i started feeling better i wrote less and less, guess it makes sense since u don't need it as much
And yes, write good things as well as bad! It helps when you can start seeing more positives
if its only filled with bad stuff, you will want to avoid it.Posted from TSR Mobile
UEL have given me an offer 
for Extended Computing with Foundation Year. I originally applied for Computer Networks which required 200 points and I have 180, so they offered me the foundation year option. I've entered it in UCAS and waiting to get confirmation from there now 
hurry up!

Congrats! I hope it is confirmed soon and that you have fun getting ready for uni.
I need to get my cook on, no idea why but I find it boosts my confidence and mood more than pretty much anything else
Congrats man! That sounds wonderful
That's excellent news, well done!

Thanks guys . Yeah, I managed to get it sorted out in the end . Actually sat in a skype call right now . I just hate when little bits like this happen, as my time left talking to him seems very short now. So the last thing I need is mini arguments and stuff. But thank you

But you might speak to me, and I am lovely and nothing to be scared of
But seriously, I appreciate why you are hesitant. I am not particularly confident with phones myself, despite being a Samaritan.
Do you know you can text, email and write to Samaritans instead? I don't know if you'd find this easier.

Well deal with it, because I am proud!
Yeahhh, I am. I've missed you too hun! 
Hey!. I'm actually in a fairly good place... The bad days seem to be getting more manageable, and the good days are really good . How are you lovely? 
IDUKEM!!!!! hey you

hey you Really glad to hear that
I'm not doing very well generally, my mind seems quite clouded and confused at the moment so things are difficult. I'm hoping that university will give me a new start though, so things aren't all bad

I know it's scary to write it all down and let them know but I think it should be okay (and if you don't, you risk getting thrown off the course, like you said). Have you ever asked your GP (or whoever you see about your depression/ED) if they consider you are fit to practice as a teacher? I recently had to declare depression to my regulatory body (health profession) and they investigated but once they spoke to my GP it was all fine.
Yeah, after talking to a few people on here and my therapist today, I think I'm going to be honest but just leave off the hospital stay for thing we aren't allowed to talk about.
And no I haven't I'm a bit scared he'll say no, although I know I'm good with kids and never let my own feelings rub off on them. But I'm going to talk to him about it tomorrow at my appointment with him. And thanks, that's reassured me a bit

well done
told you it can happen
Don't know how to deal with a friend manipulating me. Even though I'm 95% sure she's being manipulative, there's still that nagging doubt that I'm just a horrible person and I feel like **** for making her feel this bad. Finding it really hard to know how much I'm allowed to be angry with her, because I'm fairly sure her extremely manipulative tendencies are as a result of a MH problem, but they are still really really ****ty. I'm not in a place to deal with it but feel so guilty for causing her to feel abandoned and stuff, because even if my behaviour really is just normal human behaviour, her feelings of abandonment and stuff are still very real and it's **** of me to make her feel that bad. Can't get drawn back into that relationship though, because it just isn't good for me to be under her thumb and I really need to do what is best for me I think.
Got a psychology internship!

Was even worse than I expected, and I expected it to be bad.
Has anyone ever been on olanzapine before?
Any side effects etc?Everyone is bossing at present!! I'm so proud of you all
Eh. So this is kind of a bye sort of post thing. Not banning myself from TSR or anything because at the moment its helpful in keeping the loneliness at bay but Imma stop watching this thread and disappear for a while. I don't think it's good for me and because of that my replies to people probably come across as a tad harsh, maybe even bullish so yeah I just wanted to say thank you for the support from everyone in the past 12 months and if you want me; I'm probably best giving you my Skype since I am absolutely awful at replying to PM's.
Again. Thank you. Hopefully you all keep supporting each other because there's a rather lovely community feel to this thread.
I hope things eventually work out for you Poncho
I really do hope you're successful in your extenuating circumstances application and that if you're successful you manage to proof the doubters wrong.
Also to you to dude. I hope the university offer and university itself is a catalyst for change and change in a good way. Hopefully you'll thrive in the new environment.
