^And me :unimpressed:

All shaky again and I don't like it :s-smilie: Know it's definitely not my inhaler this time as I haven't taken it, although I need to...

thanks for all the support - I appreciate it. I hope it starts getting better soon because I cant keep enduring this. too hard. no idea how to get out of it. im so disabled by this :frown:


That's ok, you totally deserve it. :lovehug: You're a lovely person who's had a hell of a bad deal in life recently, but that doesn't mean it can't change. Right now I think you just need to focus on self-care and taking things one step at a time. Try and eat as best you can and same with sleep, maybe a tiny bit of gentle exercise if you can manage it (and if you've been eating). Don't worry about the big things if you can help it, you can take care of them later. Pretty much everything in life can be put on hold and regained later, your health is the most important thing to work on that can't be put aside.

Right, I want to buy a narrowboat. Mum and dad think it's a great idea and we're looking at around the £4k to £5k mark.

The thinking is: I'm going to need to pay for hotels in my hometown or I'll need to pay to live in halls. They're more expensive than the boats and the upkeep is fairly cheap. Bonus is it's not money wasted on rent, my family all love boating and it'll be a means of holidaying without huge costs - bonus since I'll be trapped in to the school terms so holidays are super expensive.

There's plenty of mooring space about half a mile away from my current placement and mooring in my hometown.

Does this sound like a reasonable idea or am I having a brain implosion caused by madness?

Gf is saying no but there's a hint that suggests she'll give in. It'd be my own space at last, cheap and easy to move around on.

:console: thats awful :frown:

Even if you dont handle something well, people shouldnt send you abusive messages! whoever they are is clearly not worth your time!

:hugs: you'll be okay, hopefully if you are teaching people wont do things like that!

It's a silly thing. Just knocked me because I didn't expect it again.

Avast! It be talk like a pirate day! Shiver me timbers! :pirate:




:hugs: New nickname catusface? :tongue:



:hugs: That's horrible - but once you're a teacher, you can give out detentions! :tongue:



:console: Well I'm here if you want to talk, even if it's only something minor. :smile:


Children are apparently no longer terrified of detentions. I need to work on my thicker skin - I'm too nice :frown:

Don't hate on our bromance! :lol:

Sorryyyy... :ashamed:

Yay for calming down. You'll make it :smile:

I just think it was totally unrealistic lol. Salmond should walk the plank!

Thanks :smile: Had a really great time in the end - completely knocked out by it sort of :tongue: but I think it's better than cycling or something - as in with that I turn up to my destination hot, sweaty, red in the face and out of breath - rather than with this I've just walked out unable to stand :colondollar: Swam for a good 30 mins or so, with like 15 stopping and breathing :tongue: but still. Was good :redface:
Luckily not that many people there/had plenty of room to swim and get changed :redface: Now I've somehow got to walk into town :lol: Sorry for ramble :tongue: but yays :smile:

literally having to take it a minute at a time. looking to survive further ahead than that feels unbearable

No, I've never sleep walked I don't think. It sounds really scary. :frown:
Sorry for the late reply, I've been all over the place. Upsetting times, good times. Up and down really.

Thank you, I'm not always good at managing my money. I'm a bit of a shopoholic :colondollar:

It isn't too scary by itself :redface: :dontknow:
Don't apologise! I'm sorry you've been quite wavy/up and down :console: been sort of similar recently too

Haha :colondollar: I just end of obsessing over prices and spending months deciding what to buy :facepalm: But getting a gaming headset soon/monday or so (in the post), for a tournament I'm doing with some friends :excited:

:hugs:

Heeeeey Paradox :h:
That sound pretty awesome tbh :colondollar: Though that said I'm probably not thinking practically and just thinking "oo boat :awesome:"
I can imagine it being quite cramped/difficult to live in possibly, have you ever gone on holiday in one before/you might have a better idea than me :redface:
Or could you rent one out for this term or half term or something and then decide whether to buy one? :smile:


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

Waiting for the bus saw someone opposite who I remember seeing next year - we've never spoken but often sort of see each other round campus/indicate a hello/smile :colondollar: :tongue: Should probably actually say hello at some point :lol: :colondollar:

Not really spoken to you before (sorry!) but that sounds amazing :eek: Only thing is, is your placement likely to end by the time you've actually bought the boat and will you be likely to be able to get to other placements in the same way? I have no idea how long they are or if I'm talking rubbish or not, sorry if I am :colondollar:

Rob's looked into barges and stuff before, you should talk to him about it. :smile: It sounds a bit crazy, but I've done things much crazier, so I say think it through and then maybe go for it! :biggrin:


I'm sure you'll be a great teacher, even if you are a nice one. :tongue:
This is bull****. Theyve decided to do **** all (they wouldnt even read what I spent hours writing?!) after asking stupid questions like "so you were eight- was it consensual?" And "so being repeatedly raped- how did that make you feel?" "Oh perhaps Im being a bit blunt." What the actual ****?! These people were supposed to help but instead they got me crying hysterically then ****ing walked out the door?! So angry. :cry2:

Stuck with the Tories now :/ this was such a huge opportunity for my country to take control of its future and become more socialist; and we've pissed it away for some last minute promises of devolution from Westminster. They're not actually going to give us more powers..

I'd just like to say from a completely neutral viewpoint - federalism for the UK has been in the Lib Dem manifesto for a while now.

You can't get a narrowboat for £4000 :erm: sorry!

You can, however, get an 8% share in a decent boat for that much though :yep:

:frown: :jumphug: :jumphug: :jumphug: That's appalling! To be frank I'd file a complaint against them and take some control back of the situation. The way they spoke to you was totally not ok, and you deserve way better!

:hugs: I absolutely think you should speak to someone about this. Someone you trust and with experience in mental health who can help you decide what to do next. You could make a complaint, or ask for a different person to repeat the assessment with maybe. :console:

yeah, sigh. I just feel like its horrible to have to live like that and constantly plagued with thoughts about what I should be doing or what everyone else is doing. eating properly is so hard. I tend to just eat unhealthily or binge eat. bleugh. trying to walk and get out every dayevery day though, even if I don't managed to get dressed until about 3. ive spent so much of my life like this. I just don't see the point in anything. im not even upset. just absolutely filled with horrendous decay and despair

:hugs: sorry I don't have much advice but can seriously empathise. its horrible when you go to appointments and they make you feel worse. really dreadful
Mental health really went down hill last whilst I was coming home from college I missed the bus and the next bus was in an hour later and it was already 10pm and I panicked in strange place. Freezing cold exhausted from my long day and hungry.
So I panicked and ended up deliberately hurting my head and couldn't stop

I know it's horrible, but you're doing your best and sooner or later things will improve and we'll be there for you for as long as it takes. :hugs: I've been in that situation where you just don't see any chance of improvement, but that's the time when you just have to keep going, accept as much help as you can get, and wait for your situation to change. You're not broken as a person, and you will get back to enjoying life again.
