Re: Crying at work
Hey @SpaceOtter, I hear you. It sounds like work is feeling overwhelming for you at the moment. There's no shame in crying - it's a natural response to what sounds like a difficult situation. And I'm glad to hear that you have people like your supervisor who seem supportive!
That being said, it might be worth considering what is causing you to cry here. Would I be right to say that the loud and crowded environment is the main trigger? Do you know why it might be leading you to cry?
It may be a good idea to talk to your supervisor about the things that are driving you to feel this way. Hopefully you can work together to come up with a solution that helps you to work, but removes the triggering factor.

Re: 2nd year of college
Hi @Elouise_Elle05, thank you for reaching out. I hear that you’re feeling anxious and overwhelmed because of these big changes that your college are making, which I completely understand. Coping with change can be very difficult.
I completely agree with what’s been said above ^^ I would just like to add that it’s completely okay for you to allow yourself a lot of time for you to adjust to change. It may help to plan in advance and obtain as much information as possible about the things that will change. That way, maybe you will feel less stressed.
Additionally, it may also help to access things that help you cope whenever you feel stressed, and to allow yourself time to partake in your interests. This can include taking a break somewhere quiet or partaking in your hobbies.
Hope this helps, and I wish you all the best with your second year!

Re: 2nd year of college
Good luck for your second year of college. I think I may have done a T level in college actually as my creative media course was equivalent to 3 A levels but was just one subject though I had to do skills alongside it as an extra qualification. I can imagine how the college changes are making you feel especially if they are doing major changes as well. I'd say take it each day at a time and if needed if your college offers 1:1 support it might be a good idea to ask for some 1:1 sessions or support to help with the changes. I had a support worker down in my college who I could go to and speak about anything on my mind. I hope all goes well for your meeting on Thursday. Let me know if you need anything help with anything ,
All the best,

Re: A drawing I did
Any suggestions for any others I could do?
Have you heard of lyric books? It's where people make books and do art relating to lyrics of a song, it's really cool and it might be something you'd be interested in. I've always wanted to try it but art isn't one of my strong suits!
I've put a few examples below as it's a bit difficult to explain.
