Being good at physics means your clever :p:

I'd love to be good at science!

Good luck!

I feel like I talk about my puppy A LOT recently but last time promise! Does anyone else have a dog/puppy that could help me?!

Thanks

nervous about it, I don't know much about the whole dsa process, I guess they'll just be helping me apply? I hope the evidence I have from a counsellor and doctors already for mitigating circumstances is okay, as I can't really afford to pay another £30 to get another letter :/

If you have evidence from a counsellor & a doctor that should be fine I assume? I wouldn't see why not what more could they want :hugs:

That's cool :smile:

I just don't know where to put him at bed time on his first night, in a crate or just let him roam the kitchen and have a bed. Okay! :smile:

Don't know, probably best in the crate so he doesn't start eating a cupboard or something I guess :redface:

The only photo I can find on here now has my friend in which I probably shouldn't send, will get one off my laptop for you tomorrow if I remember :smile:

Haha, it is :colondollar:

I can watch movies again! My evening is saved!

Movies are great :biggrin:

Sorry for not replying for a while - I think I needed to/meant to at some point :s-smilie:

Hope the exams went well - Have you got some time to relax now before next term?

Session two of three went well. :smile:

The girls and leaders all gave such sweet feedback! (I'm well aware nobody cares but I'm telling yous all anyway cos I'm like that.... :tongue:

)

Also went to a proper debate today on a very topical Scottish issue. :eek:

Never been to one before and the atmosphere was electric. :biggrin:

Glad it went well :smile:

That whole topical issue is scary! I'm interested as to what'll happen :holmes:

(Even as an English-person :colondollar:

)

Is it weird that I got a promotion in work today, but I am feeling really strange about it cos part of me feels like I don't deserve it? Like I don't understand why anyone would promote me? Grr I just wish I had more confidence.

Well done! :woo:

How do you deal with it?
I don't go out on a mission or anything like that but being 19, it just makes me think what if I'm just too weird to be in a relationship. What if I'll never find that someone cause you never know it may be the case.

Tbf I think there are more people than you'd think who are our age without relationships - particularly the whole hype with relationships/sex at Uni - sure it's a big thing for maybe 50% of students, but I wouldn't say so for the rest :dontknow:

Or I'm just mixing with a not-average bunch of people :colondollar:

I'm currently dealing with it by hiding :colondollar:

Paranoi has kicked in over my ****ing medication. This is new, im scared and dont know what to do.
Im pretty sure the psych is trying to harm me

Can you facetime rory or something? :hugs:

Or talk to mum?
They'd go to jail if they tried to do that! No point in them trying at all :hugs:

Did you take meds at a different time or something? or is this with the upped dosage instead of the anti-deps?

I wouldnt even say it was 50% i knew very few people at uni that slept around!
In first year my halls was known as a party halls and probably only 25% slept around if not less!

Havnt had meds added yet but im worried about it as i dont know if its the right thing

How are you? :smile:

(Though I'm just off to bed now - but will catch you tomorrow! :redface:

Hope you're well :hugs:

Original post by PandaWho

No exactly! Also meant not sleeping around but with a gf - at least for me not that high a % were in relationships :dontknow:

Though that said I know for my friends back home (well, from old school) that most of the guys have girlfriends, or have had over the year :sigh:

But overall for halls I'd say most didn't. *rambles* :colondollar:

I'm afraid I can't really help there :s-smilie:

I guess if they think it'll help then maybe worth a shot? I don't know what difference different doses make - as in if it's just a stronger effect or if they do other stuff too :dontknow:

I'd say try it and see how it goes - and if it isn't helping with your other symptoms then just give them a shout? Sorry, I don't have any experience with meds so I appreciate that I might well be talking rubbish :colondollar:

------------------------------

Found out that our doors won't have individual locks I don't think :s-smilie:

:/ Tbf now we're off campus I'll probably spend more time on campus/not at home, but still would like privacy when in my room - last year they didn't often knock :/ I guess if I make a point about them knocking then maybe they would :dontknow:

Though maybe it's a good thing if I can't hide so easily.

Done a fair bit of packing :biggrin:

list of stuff to do for tomorrow. Just got to hope it all fits! :eek:

I swear I always pack too much :unimpressed:

Don't know where/what to cut down on though that would make a large enough difference.

I'm not, trust me! I just... happen to like physics :getmecoat:

Thinking about it, you went to Oxford anyway didn't you? So you can hardly complain that I'm clever :tongue:

It doesn't really bother me too much, so I don't need to deal with it :nah:

I doubt you're too weird to be in a relationship! Don't put yourself down :console:

I'm really hoping they give me equipment to record lectures, that would help so much. I wonder if they'll pay to fix my laptop so I can actually use it :moon:

Yea, my dictaphone and dictate thing is the best ever :moon:

They won't bother fixing your laptop, they'll just sort you out a new one.

With the recording lectures thing, what you do is record it in the lecture, then afterwards you go home and use http://www.sonocent.com/en/audio_notetaker to create sort of a presentation. It explains what it does there, but basically you can match the audio to slides and your own notes and stuff, and break it all up :smile:
