Re: Very ashamed of my racist country and myself
I am genuinely really fucking sorry for my poor behaviour. I wish I came up with an excuse like “my phone died”. I’m so fucking sorry for what I’ve done. I wish I could take it back. I’m so sorry
Re: making friends at college
and also lunch club starts at 12:30pm and finishes at 2:30pm so maybe on wednesdays i was thinking i could come a bit early to go there. i dont know if its worth it though.
Re: making friends at college
good news, i talked to the girl i wanted to be friends with and she says that she hangs out at the library so i went there and i shared her the genre of music that i listen to. she said that she recognised that genre which was pretty good. i think i made an acquaintance. hopefully this can turn into a friendship but we'll just have to wait and see.

Thanks so much Toffuna, I hope college is going well
Re: Im a failure, ask me anything
Like Toffuna said, there are so many people in exactly the same boat right now. it can be so frustrating applying for all these jobs just to get declined or ghosted by employers. but whats important to remember is that you should keep going, and something will eventually come around for you. but your drive and determination to overcome this barrier is something you should be proud of

Re: Work supervision- so scared- I'm worse off
So 2 shifts ladt week had its ups and downs. There was sensory overwhelm but I managed to send a message to the manager in shift (wasn't my line manager) to say I'm overwhelmed. Saturday was a different environment so just adjusting to it, i was wanting to speak to my manager about thurs but he never said a word to me at all he didn't even say hello. I could sense it so left 35mins earlier than my reduced shict time, my manager then only then asked if I was okay vut I gave no response I was shut-down. His not followed up with me since even though he said he would and its part of my adjustments. Emailed him no response. His now on leave. Ive been booked in for tomorrow, happy but nervous at sane time- please I dont want an overwhelm, in a way feel like I'm bot allowed to have any if theyve given me shifts when they said they didn't need me in September so if theyve now gives me shift and I ruin the chance by having an overload that'd s bad on my part, it feels like.
The service manager emailed me to say ive booked you in tomorrow and I'll phone you friday as your manager is on leave.

Re: Struggling with loneliness (TW: mention of suicide, trauma)
Hey @Roselite, I'm so sorry this sounds really hard. You deserve to feel listened to and supported by the people in your life. I can relate to how lonely it feels when you feel like you've got no one to turn to and only that time once a week where you feel like you've got to remember everything you need to say in such a short time. We're here for you if you ever wanted to offload
Thank you, I appreciate it. I'm sorry that you relate to feeling isolated too. It definitely gets overwhelming trying to keep track of absolutely everything I've been through in the span of a week that I want to talk about in a session, and even then there are plenty of times I never get to talk about everything because there just isn't enough time. So there's a lot of feelings that I think of as having no place to go. I know self-regulation is an important skill and I try my best to cope by myself but it helps immensely if you're able to confide in others, be listened to and feel loved, supported and valued despite your struggles. It's just unfortunate I have rarely if ever experienced that (in a lot of cases when I was younger I sacrificed my wellbeing to do that for others without receiving it in return).
