Rebka- that doesn***8217;t sound good! Hope you are ok.

Clementine -

Merritt · #**13533** 7th December 2017, 15:15

I have no desire to do anything at all. Do most people go through life feeling like this and just get on with things anyway? I can't be bothered with even being conscious.

Quicksand · #**13534** 7th December 2017, 15:42

Feel the same Merritt. Hope u feel better soon. Exhausted mentally emotionally and physically a lot of it down to my nbors issues. Try not to place blame but every human has a basic right to decent sleep overnight when they need.

anyway, I was gonna put the tree up but I kinda don�t feel like it now, ha! I�ll do it later

Jeez, rebka

I hope you're alright missy. I'd give that tree a good kick or two if I was you.

Sorry you are getting flashbacks from being bullied at your old job. I presume these horrible people are out of your life for good now and you may hopefully move onto better things with nicer people around you. Watching a comedy or any form of distraction is good thing to do when you have thoughts of self harm. Look after yourself Pink Lady.

I hope are feeling a little better after you accident Rebka?

I hope you weren�t on your own when you climbed the ladder and were trying to drag the tree down from the attic. If you hit your head quite hard and the sickness and pain in your head, neck and jaw is still painful then you should have it checked out with the Doc, just to be on the safe side x

I feel a bit useless. I'm trying to work out why it is I have such a hard time starting essays. Today is deadline day (I've already wasted a four week extension) and while I've at least looked at the question this time, I still haven't started. Maybe it's a confidence issue. Or a fear of failure. Or simply just bone idleness

Well, even if i contact them and receive a happy and polite response it might just mean that they�ve forgiven me off sorts but it won�t stop me feeling bad that I may have upset them in the first place!

I hope you manage to find the motivation to start on your essay, Kooky Monster. I would reckon your reluctance to start is a combination of a lack of confidence and a fear of failure, definitely not laziness! I used to be the same when I had to write long essays for the OU. I�d always leave it to the last minute as it felt so daunting. Breaking it down into smaller chunks sometimes helped . Good luck!

I have no idea but all I can say is try not to overthink too much and I know that's hard to as i'm guilty of it myself x.

Thanks Purplesnarf.

Maybe the guy you think doesn�t like you is just shy with you and you�re interpreting his lack of friendliness as not liking you when he may indeed like you or at least be indifferent to you. Or if he actually doesn�t like you then he�s an idiot and a

to him !

Ps. Am going to google egocentricist or whatever it is, to see what one of those is. I�m pretty sure you�re not one though!!!!

Aww, thanks NW

Well, I have really upset people in the past, not intentionally but nonetheless they believed it was intentional

Sometimes I struggle to find the right words and things come out the wrong way. My hubby wasn�t being unkind when he said I was being an egocentrist. I think he was just trying to say that not everything is about me. When someone is upset, or this that and the other, I automatically think it�s because of something that I�ve done when in reality such people probably barely notice my existence let alone given me a moments thought.

^ I know he wasn***8217;t being unkind. My mum used to constantly tell me everything ***8220;wasn***8217;t about me***8221; when I started to stress over things. I agree that people really don***8217;t think about us in either a negative or positive way half as much as we believe that they do!
I don***8217;t think my mum ever really understood my insecurities. In fact, I think she was irritated by them. It***8217;s ironic, in that quite a few of them were put in by her in the first place!!!!

Clementine · #**13538** 7th December 2017, 18:17

Thanks for the hugs

@Muggins I***8217;m sure you***8217;re just overthinking, I do it often too though

I***8217;m feeling dreadful today, just keep crying.
I really don***8217;t know what***8217;s come over me

I don***8217;t feel as if I can move, it***8217;s like everything is too heavy.

anxiouslondoner · #**13539** 7th December 2017, 18:35

^ hugs

did your delivery show up?

Pink*Lady · #**13540** 7th December 2017, 21:51

Thank you Muggins.

Foolish. I hid in the toilet for half an hour today crying and I couldn't stop. I was also shaking and having a panic attack. I came out of the toilet and my manager was waiting outside for me. She was very nice and asked if I was ok and if I wanted a chat. I said I was ok and thanked her for asking. I felt calmer then and the rest of the day went fine.

Consolida · #**13541** 7th December 2017, 23:30

^ ^ I�m glad that the day improved for you as it went along Pink Lady

It�s good that you seem to be working with much nicer people than you were with at your last place.

Gosh, NW, our mums sound very similar in many ways!

My mum also used to say the exact same thing as yours �that not everything was about me�. I cant say it ever made me feel any better though

Thanks Clementine x
Sometimes a good cry can be quite cathartic, I hope it will be this way for you. Since going on the ecitalopram I don�t seem to cry so easily and I can�t say I like it because sometimes crying is a good release for all of those pent up emotions.
Anyway, I hope tomorrow is a better day for you

Clementine · #**13542** 7th December 2017, 23:34

^ Thanks, sweetheart

Are you feeling any better?

Clementine · #**13543** 8th December 2017, 00:49

Head***8217;s pounding and I can***8217;t sleep

Merritt · #**13544** 8th December 2017, 01:11

Got anything to take for the headache? The radio's got me through a lot of lonely sleepless nights. There's a Brian Wilson thing on 6 Music at the mo

anxiouslondoner · #**13545** 8th December 2017, 06:44

^^^ hope you get some sleep soon.

^ glad you are OK... those trees are sneaky, all looking innocent and pretending they can't move until they get their opportunity to attack.

Clementine · #**13546** 8th December 2017, 07:49

^^ Thanks, Al

Aww, I�d have liked that. I got some broken sleep but kept having bad dreams.

Me neither, I had a few bad dreams, one about an evil spirit in a microwave

Also my dog kept waking me up trying to get under the covers because it was cold. I wouldn***8217;t mind but she gets too hot after about half an hour and clambers over me to get out again. This repeats throughout the night

I***8217;m feeling cold and groggy and kinda sad.

Mo34 · #**13550** 8th December 2017, 16:14

Glad to be home. Went to town after volunteering, stopped of at the rubbish tip/recycling centre managed to make a right tit of myself

Went into sainsburys - sooo busy. 20 mins+ in the queue for the till which then promptly crashed, so my shopping was then moved to the next till (and all the ppl behinds) and then that till crashed

again all my shopping was moved by a chain of staff. Then the SD card I purchased wouldn't scan and had to wait ages for someone to come and help. Gave him my parking card which wouldn't scan so he used a different till. Course I got to the machine and the barrier and nope not accepted. So had to wait ages for some one to rescue me with a big queue forming behind. I did begin to think I am never going to get out of here.

Oh and I apparently shoplifted some garlic

I remember now why I love online shopping so much!
