Okay heading home. Just need to get in, get meds, get cake and not be told I'm a terrible daughter. And work out how to explain why I didn't go to work today.

Heyy TLG :hugs: how ya doing?


I'm not too bad thanks! Just recovering from a major influx of relatives :eek: But otherwise good :h:

How've you been? What've you been up to?! :biggrin:

There's a difference between selfishness, and self-care. Wanting to focus on yourself is the latter, not the former.

Your family do sound a bit odd, tbh. You should be able to eat from the fridge without permission!!! :s-smilie:

Do you live at home the whole time or is it just for uni holidays? Is there anywhere you can escape to? Like a family friend, a uni friend or a grandparent's place? :console:


Thanks :smile: I guess you're right, I usually know myself very well and have a strong personality but my family constantly puts me down so often it's hard to not take some of what they say seriously sometimes.

It's been this way since I was a kid TBH... this isn't the worst they've been by any extent :s-smilie: Am saving up from any sources possible/trying to ensure a steady income and moving out ASAP.

I'm at home the whole time unfortunately (had to leave uni due to severe depression which my family doesn't know about, but being around the emotionally abusive environment is making it even worse.)

Aw yeah, so I've heard :tongue: not sure whether it's nosey and/or a bad idea to go have a look at it…

You've been playing Scrabble without me?! :leer:

How are you, personally? What have you been up to this summer? :smile:


Don't know, I hate things like that so it upset me a little bit but I can't imagine it would anyone else :colondollar:

Yep, sorry! You should join us next time and try and beat samba :eek:

I've been up and down a lot which isn't great, been away with family and friends a couple of times this summer which is good though! Also decided to take a gap year this year before uni, but can't work out what to do with it... What have you been up to?

That sounds really rough :frown: I'm so sorry :frown:

I don't know what else to advise but rest assured we're hear to lend a friendly ear if/when you need to rant :console:
I've been flicking through this thread, you're so condescending. Just because you're vegan doesn't mean you can talk like that to people. This is why the majority of vegans have a bad rap.



Anyway, i've been surprisingly up beat and had no symptoms of my anxiety/bpd lately which is a refreshing change. How is everyone else?
Hey guys keep on topic, yeah?
Was sucessful with thinking about positive things today and turned out at the end, that my mood has risen. (Three hours of sport!)

He said 20mg of citalopram wasn't high enough to give me any withdrawal effects so said to stop them cold turkey :/

Posted from TSR Mobile


Well he would know better than me. I was advised 40, 20, 10 at monthly stages. I had weird side effects going on them but not off. I cold turkeyed after a week back at 20 as I refused to do another 7 weeks without the ability to think. I got away with it and so did my brother. I hope it's just a temporary thing for you and resolves fast.

Hey,

Sorry you're not feeling OK. Can you give us all a vague hint about the content of what you wanna talk about, so we can work out whether it would trigger us, and whether we as individuals would be the best person to PM you? Like even just saying "it's about severe depression/anxiety/OCD/SA/SH" etc would be helpful :smile:

:hugs:
