Haven't had a good day so far. I've hardly eaten anything and feeling very low again. Not helped by the fact that I've got loads of work to complete for tomorrow and that I'm still struggling with socialising. Why does this always happen to me ? :sad: :cry:


:jumphug:
Could you go and get something to eat now?
Sorry I've not been around peeps - turns out the jetlag is far worse than I ever remember :nothing: :cry2: :emo:

Original post by octoberbaby
I have a couple, but neither of you.. Would be willing to swap though.:


If either of you, or anyone else, ever wants to chat just pm me your skype ID. I'd be interested in getting more people from here on there. :smile:



Stayed in bed until 12 listening to the voices shouting at me. Finally got up and made pancakes and feel a fair bit better for having done something productive, especially as they turned out really delicious.

You can definitely do it. :hugs:
You're not a failure either. :nah:
The very worst that can happen is that they say no. So surely it's worth going for the chance (and I bet it's a good chance :yep: ) that they say yes? :smile: Even though it's scary. :hugs:

Even if it was certain that you wouldn't get it (which it isn't!) why not treat it as a practice? It might not get you a job now, but being good at interviews is a skill and this could be a good opportunity to practice it :smile:

You're really not. :nah: :hugs:
That's good! If it gets you into the interview! :tongue: Like asdfgah said- even if you don't get it it's really good practice. :yep: :hugs:
Try not to worry about that (WAY easier said than done, I know. :colondollar: And this probably sounds so unhelpful. :colondollar: ). But- you never have to see them again after this. :smile:
You're way to hard on yourself lovely. :loveduck:

PS. Check your rep bit on your front page. :ninja:

Hope your feeling a bit better aswell :hugs:


Posted from TSR Mobile


Also going to PM you mine in a second.. I'm online nearly always so yeah nearly always around for a chat.
Am feeling the smallest bit better, but not an awful lot, have still really ****ed up.
I hate the itchy feeling :frown: it's so unbearable. I usually find that a really cold shower can help though? Hope you're all right otherwise.

I've been struggling again today :sad:. Knew this would happen again once I started studying. I've also failed in socialising as I don't seem to get invited to parties and stuff, or invited when people are going out. And I also go through periods of not being bothered to do various stuff, I did laundry the other day for the first time in 2 weeks and since then my clothes have been lying everywhere simply because I cannot be bothered to fold them and put them into the wardrobe. And as usual I'll happily find myself wasting time but when it comes to doing something productive I can't be bothered. I really want to try and organise something, try and find out if anyone is going clubbing and see if I can go too, or possible go out for something else like bowling :tongue:. Or even something as basic as spending the evening together in someone's flat. I'd say that I do have one person that I could call a friend, she seems to be in a similar situation to me.

As usual just pointless drivel that I'm posting here, especially when I should be completing my work instead. Shame I don't have anything good that I could put on a CV and covering letter (yes, that is the work I need to do! :tongue:)

Dude, it's definitely not drivel, It is your reality and it's how you feel. I also tend to only ever find friends in other people with mental health or other significant problems. Maybe there is some sort of hidden magnetic pull or something?

With the CV, you know that if you manage make to a start on it things may start to flow and before you know it, you'll have a polished finished article and quality covering letter. I'm sure there must be loads of good things you can put down if you put your mind to it! It's just getting around to starting the whole thing - You can do it! There should be a procrastination thread on TSR, it's probably been thought about by various members, but no-one actually managed to motivate themselves to start it...That should be the definition in the dictionary lol

If it's any bonus, I'm actually a touch envious of how tidy and organised you are right now. I'm only cleaning myself and clothes so that I don't smell and offend other students. Having to battle all the flies hanging around my pathetic cesspit of a flat.

On a lighter note, I got into an argument with an invisible person while standing on my balcony smoking a cigarette today. I was using hand gestures, body language and everything during the dialogue. People below on the street thought I was nuts. I hate my mind sometimes. But I shall learn to cherish it. It shall be my friend.

Managing to do your laundry sounds good, don't worry about putting it away it's unimportant. I used to put all my clean stuff on my bed and sleep under it - they never had the heating on. :tongue:

You should try to find the energy to organize/go bowling or clubbing, even if it's difficult, I'd say that;s actually way more important than putting away clothes. I spent my university years alone and it was awful, I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Make your number one priority at the moment making friends - join societies, sit by people in classes, cook time-intensive stuff to make sure you're in the kitchen more etc. Good luck.

it just feels like someone could replace me anywhere I go. Like with my friends, if I weren't there someone else would replace me and nobody would care that much. And with everyone else I know too. I feel like I'm just pushing people away and they don't care if I do because they don't need me for anything. I dunno if that makes any sense though :s


Yeah it definitely does make sense, and I'm sure a lot of people on this thread could relate to feeling that way at some point.
I think it's really important that you try realise that this isn't true, your friends certainly do care about you and wouldn't want you to be replaced by anyone. I know it's a bit of a daunting idea but do you think you could mention to your friends about feeling this way? I know I've got one friend I go to whenever I'm starting to feel this way and she sorts me out and gets me thinking straight again. Maybe if one of them knew how you were feeling they could help to show you that this isn't true?
