Depression Society MKVI

This is what my close friend said to me today "Just forget you're depressed, FORGET you're upset. Just don't think about it. DON'T think at all, don't think about ANYTHING. Just BE" didn't know how to reply to that, nor do I exactly know HOW actually to JUST BE. No but seriously, am I missing something? How do I suddenly turn everything off and go back to JUST BEING. How do I be 'myself', what does it all even mean?

If your concentration lapses in the exam then at least you know you'll have extra time if you fancy a nap

I'm not sure, when I went they were talking to her by herself but I think they were just going on about what I had said because my mum wasn't in the room when I was talking about stuff.

The funny thing is that I don't even know the exact thing they said which caused me to leave. All I remember is that a boy saying that I said something, which caused my best friend to say that "girls are not objects". Before that there was a girl that I called a "bitch", because she always does something to get me in a bad mood. It didn't help that a lot of the people that were in the class are those that have bullied me in the past, or still do. .



How are you today?

Yikes... I just asked this girl out... afew months ago or even afew weeks ago I would never have done that... I deffo think the CBT is helping... only prob now I have done it im nervous as hell.....

I suppose so, didn't think of it like that.
After doing any work during the day I always spend all evening lazing about.

Ah right, well hopefully they might educate her on potential triggers, I would imagine that would be pretty common.

It'll probably be better for you in the long run if you don't tire yourself out by working constantly. Take the break!

Hopefully, yeah.



I think I've changed my mind about the leavers do again. Looking at Facebook pictures from last years and I think I'd regret it if I didn't go, I might even be feeling better by then. Even if I don't enjoy it, I'm sure there will be a corner I can hide in. The main reason I'm not going is because my friends have already organised transport to school without me but turning up with parents is normal so I could just walk up with my mum and wait for my friends.

Massive wave of positivity! Now for this damn homework

I suppose, just feel guilty taking such a long break after not that much work.
Don't know whether til wait til Friday to see my advisor about the exams or email the teaching hub lady back. Seeing mentor Friday this week. Already missing him.

That's fair enough, better to give it a go if you think you might regret not going. Even if you don't enjoy, you will probably have something to look back and laugh at. I went to a sixth form ball where my (I assume drunk) chemistry teacher dragged me out my seat onto the floor and tried (but failed) to make me dance.
Good luck with the homework!

Sick and tired of everything. I want a rest from this.

You could perhaps try and make up for it tomorrow
You could e-mail the teaching hub lady and if she's no use, speak to your advisor.
Becoming obsessed with people is not a good idea, I'm definitely in love with an old teacher of mine and my heart still pounds whenever I see her across the yard. I once went through a freaky phase when she was all I could think about, so glad I got myself out of it! At one point I'm sure things I used to do were illegal I'm not weird, I swear.
Oh dear, haha! Dancing makes me want to curl up and never be seen again.
Thanks, I've done it.
Feeling guilty for being a bit more positive for once, hmmm

Will try, if I wake up in time to make a flask of tea, should be able to stay at uni for a while.
Library was really full today though, I think the cramming period has officially begun.
Might try that, eurgh I hate emails, it will be like "hi again, they still haven't fixed it."
I know, he wouldn't be my first obsession.
Awww. Reckon it happens to a lot of people.
Me too
Wooo! Well done!

hey, I'm new.. I've requested to join the group thing, can I post on here before?

Yes sure, I don't think many of us are even members. Just post away.
