Are they like needed to be done by tomorrow? Or can they be done tomorrow?

Maybe get some sleep and start from a clean slate tomorrow?


Not specifically tomorrow, but I've got more lectures tomorrow and it'll mean I have 2 lots of lectures to write up :frown: I'm supposed to be skating tomorrow but I'm thinking of quitting because I don't think I can handle everything :frown:
Just done a to do list for the next week, and its massive wahhhh

Feel quite low

I think I need a wife lol

Just been on here attention seeking with poor jokes all evening in the hope that someone will like them. It's killing me.
I am so so so proud of myself. Like I am tempted to write myself a certificate or something. Haven't felt this good about myself in so long.

I went to the pub meet for a society I'm really interested in even though I knew nobody there and I socialised a lot for hours.
I freaked out a tiny bit but joined another group to chat to and that was fine.
I got on well with people and joked about, and I stayed right from the start until the end which is a long time for me to be around people.
All of this was without me drinking either so nothing to take away the panic, it just didn't really arrive.

As if that wasn't enough, I have arranged to go to another thing with a few of them at weekend and semi organised a lift with somebody since I would struggle to do it on public transport.
I don't remember ever socialising this easily. All the happy.
So much pain, even paracetomol and mefenamic acid are only just kind of touching it where most people only need paracetomol maximum :frown:

Hi. Hope everyone's okay :smile: The good news is that I went to see student support at uni last week and by then I was fine and they said they're there if I need them. Bad news is that in spite of being better it came back with a vengeance over the weekend. I've made an appointment to see a GP on Monday and I'll see what they say. It comes and goes but when it's bad it's bad. Yesterday I went to a lecture and just felt so screwed up, classmate and lecturer noticed something was up, said it was the flu... Kind of scared at the moment as it's a new MH issue for me. Had issues with ocd and mood in the past, primarily depression. but this is different so can't manage it. I'm depressed but I'm really hyperactive and can't sleep I'm so wired but then can get up and still feel wired despite lack of sleep. Just can't focus on anything my brain is so wired. Never felt like this until a month ago. Feel so confused and hope it doesn't cause huge problems for uni as I'm doing a course I love. Feel so annoyed my brain has decided to be silly now. My anxiety and social anxiety is through the roof as well at the moment, being back in halls really isn't helping things :frown:

Thank you! Passed out for quite a while too, not done that in ages and don't think I ever have when I'm panicking so not sure what to make of that :s-smilie:

At least it's not too long any more though, not that I knew what it looked like before :colondollar: Not sure as I'll be able to as we have guests here, well they're out at the minute but depends what time they go. In my experience hair always looks weird/too short when it's cut just I've because got used to it another way! :getmecoat:

They're meeting at 8:30, so hoping I might be able to go and talk and then maybe try and escape 11/11:30ish before they go to the club? No way I'm going there, just a recipe for disaster :redface:

Eurgh :s-smilie: Doesn't sound fun :no:

Haha :colondollar: That's true :tongue: No more hair-flicking out the way - I mean it wasn't even *that* long, but just a lot easier when short I think :redface:
Ah I see - Hope it went okay then either way :redface: :hugs: Exactly! :smile:

Hope it went okay :hugs: Club not for me either :nah:

Think so, all the cool people have been on tinychat too :wink: Yeah I guess, I've never talked to anyone IRL about it so wouldn't really know :colondollar:

Nah, they're back now :sadnod: And as I discovered the other night, no-one on here has ever even heard of the county I live in :lol: The percussion bit was fun, the theory maybe not so good but fairly interesting at least :tongue: Solo was scary! Kind of messed it up a bit but I at least had a go I guess, hopefully if we do it again sometime I might actually do a decent one :redface:

How are you? :hugs: Thank you for your help yesterday, was much appreciated- sorry if I didn't make a lot of sense, just realised quite how bad my typing combined with stupid autocorrect actually ended up :getmecoat:

Haha :tongue: and apparently now skype :eek: Ah :redface: You should :hugs: Well, I don't know - I've found it helpful I think, very cathartic :redface: But then I'm not that bad I don't think :dontknow: :redface:

Haha, where/what county do you live? :tongue:
Yeah well done for going for it! :smile:

I'm okay I think, not sure - speaking to flatmates this evening about jobs/stuff just makes me think about the future and module choices and stuff and just makes me worried :s-smilie: :sad:
Make perfect sense, and I hope you're feeling better :jumphug:

That's the end of Step 3 but we didn't get very far on the Manosphere front. My T is treating it as obsession/addiction/intrusive thought and most likely symptomatic of the Internet/porn addiction as a whole

Glad it went okay/got a bit of a way through? :hugs:

Blah, struggling. Trying to distract. Meant to be doing work cause I'm soooo behind but can't focus and feel crap

:mad: :fuhrer:

so the place i have to go to for counselling cant give me a female counselor at either my surgery or the hospital that they run from, i have to go to another surgery that i dont even know where it is, let alone how to get there!

looks like thats fallen flat on its face!

That's annoying :/ :frown:
Would the other surgery be accessible at all? :s-smilie:
:hugs:

How was it? Hope you're doing okay Noodlzzzzzzzzz :biggrin: :smile:

I think this is the first time I've ever felt seriously and dangerously low, like constant depression all the damn time, and it really is ****

:hugs: Would also recommend trying to see someone :sadnod: Not fair for you to have to go through this alone :hugs: Available on PM too if you need it - sorta half-replied to last PM in tinychat I think? :redface: (and apologies for when I'm rubbish at replying... :s-smilie:)

Not as easy as my DRs, or as cheap!
And im not going purely on principle! How can the building they operate from NOT have a female counsellor?

So happy for you :biggrin: :hugs:
blehhh. have a whole bunch of worksheets counsellor asked me to do before our session this afternoon that i'd forgotten about :frown: gonna have to run back from class, and somehow quickly do them without messing up my revision schedule :frown:
Oh my. Gym induction in an hour. Absolutely bricking it, my short stubby stature against those tall muscular folk.

Hair flicking can look funny though :tongue: Trry having it past your shoulders! It was good, not many people came in the end (and none of the people I thought were going except the one that invited me :redface:) but we just sat there until about 11 then everyone was tired so we all went home and one of them gave me a lift :smile:

Yep! :eek: Glad that you've found it helpful :hugs: I don't know, I can't imagine it'll matter 'how bad' people are, it'll help different people to different extents and if it helps you that's brilliant! :yep:

Spoiler

:console: I know what you mean there, decisions are scary :frown: Do you know what modules you're taking? I don't know where to apply, that said this time last year applying first time round I didn't even now what course I wanted to do so I guess it's improved a bit :colondollar:

Yeah I'd say things are going well right now, nothing overly exciting is happening but nor is anything bad happening either :smile: How about you? :jive:
Okay so I need some advice, but it could be triggering so read with caution!
so last night when drunk (never a good idea) I decided to go brush my teeth at 6 am. When I'd brushed my teeth I went to grab my water bottle, but instead drank cream cleaner. Obviously I initially spat it all out, and then I was sick a couple of times. This was NOT a suicide attempt or anything of that nature, just a mix up. I feel like I should have gotten some medical help at the time but didn't wanna panic anyone. Do people think I should get help, or just drink a lot of water and hope for the best? I've obviously got a raging hang over, but I think I feel fine otherwise

Well I can't be sure that I didn't swallow any, I probably swallowed some, but I was a bit sick. I think I'm just gonna leave it and drink a lot of water. The whole flat knows, I woke one of them up when I'd done it, so I think I'll be okay! Such a scary experience :frown:
