Re: College
Good luck!!! The timetable will take a bit of getting used to, mine did. It's more relaxed than school though and hopefully there's more support too. Have fun and let us know how it goes 

Re: College
good luck in college! i woke up earlier too so you dont need to worry about that.
Re: August achievements, with a theme of altruism!
@toffuna101 sounds like you've had a busy month of learning, so glad its paid off for you!
@Amy22 It's great to hear that you've still been able to achieve quite a lot in such a busy month, it's nice to hear that going to the coffee morning club has been helping improve your confidence

I thought I'd add some of my achievements this month too:
- I've been focusing on nurturing relationships that bring me joy this month, its been freeing to stop putting energy into one sided friendships and focus on the people that really matter to me
- I moved in to my university accommodation once again, decided to give myself some time this year to really settle in and readjust to city living
- My friend also moved in to our accommodation pretty early on so we've both been helping keep each other sane in a relatively quiet flat

Re: im at breaking point.
Hey @eylah, just wanted to check in on how you're doing today? It sounds like you have a lot going on at the moment, and can understand how that can feel so overwhelming. I'm sorry to hear the way that your dad is treating you, it isn't right or fair on you. You're doing ever so well to keep going. Take things one at a time, and hopefully the storm calms down soon for you 
I can imagine that the blood test might come quite as a shock, especially when it came out of nowhere like it did. Waiting for results like this can feel quite worrying, but it's out of your control now. Let the medical staff do their testing for now, and once they give you the answer, you can figure out what needs to be done then. And through this whole period, we'll be here to support you every step of the way. You're not alone
Like others have mentioned, you're absolutely allowed to use this space to express how you're feeling - we're here to listen to you, because your feelings are valid and you matter. It's okay to ask for help when we're in a difficult situation, just as we'd be willing to help a friend when they're in need. Lots of people need help, but that in no way makes your need for help any less valid. There's enough people to help everyone, and we're here to support you

Re: im at breaking point.
Also I hope the tests went well and your doing ok I bet that was frightening for you to hear especially if you have been having pelvic pain. The main thing is that the doctors will try their absaloute best to figure out what's going on and will help you all the way
. I can imagine having tests must be super challenging and tough for you right now.
