Thank you! so are you! :h:

Oh, that sounds awesome, generally helping them or within your department? Something else? I'd love to do something like that, but I'm so bad with working with a lot of new people all at once. :colondollar:

When do you find out if you're allowed?

Helping those doing my course heading into first year! I lied a little on my application form by saying I just do Education, but I'm going to do joint honours for the next years starting in September. I hope that's not bad :colondollar:

I think you an choose how many you wish to help out...I think :smile:

No idea, probably some point over Easter :biggrin:

So low

Can't even motivate myself to try and distract myself, just hiding in bed crying and overthinking everything which is just stupid.

bleh. still feeling very sad. still haven't managed coursework. picked up post and got letter from the pointless 5 minute appointment I had 2 weeks ago.. she said she would write about how far along my referral is, and wrote nothing. also GP said she would try and set something up over easter and email me over a week ago now, and still nothing. now shes not in for a while either. ffs. I may as well give up on the whole thing, don't think I will ever get better with the **** 'help' here.

Almost April and it's snowing again. Not enough to settle but enough to make it ****ing cold. :tongue:

I keep getting images of what I need to do to myself in my mind. Doesn't seem to matter what I do, no distractions are working, just sitting bearing it. :frown:

That probs would help, but stupid brain tells me I'd be bothering you :s-smilie:

I have taken some Phenergan PRN (sleeping tablet), so hopefully can have an early night and a good night's sleep :colondollar:

Not moaning at all! You can rant, I don't mind. I'm ok. Just really spaced out for some reason? :dontknow:

I'm better than I was earlier though.

Realised I don't have the social life I want to have anymore. Friends dropping out of contact and dropping out of shared hobbies and stuff. I'm not really getting much fulfillment from that side of life right now.

Anyone got any tips or discussion on this? I've lost the ability to find new hobbies and friends and really just don't know how :s-smilie:

Would you like to reconnect with these friends or are you not so fussed? It's hard to keep up with friends and hobbies and stuff when you have mental health problems :sadnod:

If they are friends you are interested in keeping, even a simple 'hey, sorry we haven't seen each other for a while, not been well/not been myself' text can go a long way. I say that as someone who has a friend who is very decidedly pushing me away, due to her ED :frown:

I honestly don't mind if she doesn't want to/can't see me, but it's the not knowing that gets me and my other friends in that group down :yes:

Obviously if you have no interest in reconnecting with these friends, then just ignore me :colondollar:

I'm not holding it against them, people move on and lose interest in shared hobbies (which is often what keeps people friends with each other). Can empathise with your situation there too although it doesn't apply to this situation, this time at least.

I used to ride bikes every weekend with one of my best friends, and he no longer has any interest in doing that, having found other hobbies I can't afford right now (we stay in contact via facebook chat most days but we don't see each other more than once every other month), and i don't do my usual sunday badminton anymore because the friends I did that with no longer committed to it or had the time so I see them once a week at best.

My uni friends are great but outside of occasional pool after uni we don't see each other because they play a sport I can't play.

I feel like i'm not involved in anything bigger at the minute. Cycling used to be my hobby and lifestyle, but at the minute i'm riding alone and it's quite depressing.
