    The closer my birthday gets only in September the more shit I feel that I am going to be 22 and I am still in the same position as I was when I was 17. Literally. Working 8 hours a week at primark
    How much personal growth have you gone through since then, though, @Shaunie?

    @GreenTea hey, idk if what im gonna say can help you, but im gonna say it anyway with raised chest: be proud of yours scars, they can be ugly, they can show a past that you dont wanna remember, but they make part of you and who you are: a stronger person who could take these scar more longer, but didnt; a strong person that are now surviving day by day and living little by little; those girls, with zero respect to them, are ridiculous and i am ashamed for her mothers that didnt give any education or empathy to them. Your scars are the proof that you're an angel winning a battle per day. Dont be ashamed, ok? You are stronger than these girls, than anyone that can laugh at yours beautiful scars. And im sorry, but i get too emotional when i see someone sad because of another one; no one has the right to make us sad :(

    my best friend has the same problems than me: insecurity, free of abbandoment, paranoia, she cry a lot sometimes and she felt like she is losing herself because of anxiety and depression, but inside the situantion its extremely worst because her family dont give any support, to be honest, her family (in my view) made her sick;;; i want to help her, but i dont know what to do; i've already offer her to take her an a professional to take care of her, but she dont want to... i dont know what to do; she sufrering and i can do nothing, thats kinda frustrating because she is one of my favourite persons... so many things happening i feel sooooo tired

    I wish I had the motivation to function. It hurts that I can't bring myself to do anything. I'm supposed to go away on Tuesday and even the thought of that is too overwhelming

    I am so sorry to hear about what has happened to Steve and that he has gone across the rainbow bridge way too early. He was such a lovely dog and you were an amazing owner. Loss can be so hard for anyone and it is understandable that you are struggling and really upset. Pets are family too. We are all here for you. You are never alone. Sending you loads of hugs.

    The steps you take don’t need to be big, they just need to take you in the right direction.

    Wait there are different managers for upstairs and downstairs? That is sort of cool but also sort of weird. It makes sense so there isn't just one manager rushing up and down in the store. It is better to have one manager for downstairs and one manager for upstairs.

    When you breakdown and cry and there's nothing to justify it, so you try to stop but make it all a whole lot worse.

    Ay up to being an emotional wreck for no reason
