Don't think today has been much good for any of us, hopefully tomorrow will be better!
Still not feeling well but I'm a bit calmer/safer than I was earlier. I will tidy my room and do my lab tomorrow if it kills me
Can't keep putting it off.

Thanks 
Haven't so far, but I guess if it comes up I might do. Not sure. Feeling a bit more settled with this position, I think? Not sure - with it out of my mind currently I think it's possibly best I don't ask 
Yeah luckily there will be a couple of people who are v. good around so that should make it easier hopefully Just sorta scared/think I'm quite likely to just become someone doing the role, but not properly filling it? Just sort of someone there to do the stuff that's needed, whereas it's a leadership role sort of? Sort of. I'm just quiet though sort of/don't like telling people what to do/while I do definitely have stuff to say, quite often take more of a backseat/wait for other people first? I don't know - not all the time, but I think that that's how I'd describe myself. Maybe. But hopefully this'll help me build on that. Sorry, such a ramble! Please do ignore 
More importantly, how're you doing?

I'm glad you're feeling more settled with it 
in a leadership role its not necessarily about telling people what to do more listening to everyone and taking their opinions into account which it sounds like you would be good at. Yeah it'll be a good opportunity to build on things AAAANNNDDD (fingers crossed anyway) I'll be back next year so if you ever need a chat with someone separate from things I can help with all my vast experience 
I'm up and down... a lot
doctors decided to change my medication again so that might help I dunno

On another note can't wait till the weekend & when i start volunteering 
I was supposed to meet a few people but they had a change of plan sadly 
I'm suffocating on my own in the house most of the time (work is premature respite but I you don't exactly have much time to talk over there). However I'm still carry the hope that something really positive is right around the corner!

I don't really post much about myself on here. I like helping others, like you do too aha However admittedly I can feel quite down & just go into deep thought, or let it all out, it does help me feel better afterwards though. As long as you can remain positive/have a good support base then it really can go a long way! Original post by Multitalented me

So don't ever feel you're bothering us or dragging people down or anything. Helping others is all well and good but you need to engage in self-care too

& yeah I totally agree with your sentiments 
Well family are now looking at moving house an hour away instead of 2 hours as they say they don't like seeing me like this, but still doesn't really help
Most of the places being 20 or 30 mins away from current GP by train or car, some an hour by train due to changes.
But I still can't see my GPs letting me stay registered, may only be 20 or 30 mins train journey which I wouldn't mind but address would still an hour away
Worrying about it all has meant since Friday I've not slept properly, an hour tops some nights none. Not ate properly as don't feel hungry. Crying until all hours. Screaming. Lashing out at objects in frustration
Never used to be this bad, worse now than before I was signed off sick for 2 months. I know its silly that I am getting myself worked up over thought of having to change GP, but thats depression in some people don't deal with change easily. Plus social anxiety doesn't help
Family said I should make an appointment with my GP, but don't see how that will help. Increasing medication dosage won't change the underlying problem

Glad things are looking up for you a bit! And joint honours sounds interesting- why philosophy out of interest? At least I think that was you.... Good about your friend, too
Not too sure about the prescriptive hugs thing though, they're good on here but irl I'm really not a fan

Thank you!
Cause I like it, I do a complimentary module on philosophy and enjoyed it enough to continue it on properly next year and 3rd year. Indeed, she's a lovely person too We could have it as an option

I would make an appointment. They might be able to give you something to help you feel calmer. It's easier to think things through and deal with them when you don't have all the anxiety spiralling in your head.
Medication doesn't change the problem, it just helps you feel okay enough to work through it (in theory, obviously mileage varies).
