...See more I hate how everytime I accidentally get a mark somewhere or accidentally cut myself it brings back all these memories and urges to SH again. I wish it didn’t bother me so much. I’ve not done anything for. 2 months but it’s really hard.

...See more I’m just so so tired of trying so hard . I am just tired of everything. College , family , friends this would be the part where most people would say they don’t care anymore but I do and I think that’s what’s worse . Is how much I care and I just feel like this sadness inside of me is just ruining my life . But it’s not just that I also feel like I care too much . Like I’m tired of caring more for others than they do for me . Life just really sucks at the minute and I don’t know the cause my sadness and that’s what’s worse how do you find a solution when you don’t know what the problem is . I have some great friends and I know they’d be there for me in an instant but i just feel so bad when all I do is talk to them about how I’m feeling. I hate it so much . I feel like my mood just flips like a clicking a switch and I don’t know how to turn the lights back on. How do I get out of this darkness???

...See more I’m so annoyed with myself at the minute. I’ve had the most amazing day and yet here I am and I can’t get the pit of sadness out from inside of me . I want to be happy , I should be happy and yet here I am wanting to just cry for no apparent reason. I’m just constantly questioning what is wrong with me .

...See more Hi i have nightmares every day and it’s got to the point where I’m just terrified to sleep. I’ve always had them but they are just getting worse as I get older. However it’s causing me to be really tired all the time and I’m getting angry and annoyed at every little thing and generally I’m a really nice patient person. As well as the stress of school not helping with things . I have exams coming up soon , which my teachers never let me forget . Everything just seems ten times worse when I’m tired . Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with the nightmares ? I just could do with going to sleep whilst not being scared of my own imagination.

Terrified about presentation

...See more Hi I have a presentation coming up and I am so scared . Everyone is telling me it is easy and I will get top grades and I know that they are right but it doesn’t make me feel any better, plus I feel like I’m annoying them now , which sucks even more . It’s like of someone tells you to jump from a height to some that height may seems short to others it may feel like jumping out of an aeroplane. That’s how this presentation is like for me, it’s like jumping out of an aeroplane . I know it’s me and that I’m overthinking everything because I do it all the time . I know that in the future when I’m older it won’t even matter and I probably won’t remember but that doesn’t help me now… Sorry I just really needed to get that off my chest .
