    Just got harassed right after my appointment with the alcohol worker. First started as asking about my bike. Then started asking about it I’m single and creepy stuff. Didn’t speak proper English so was hard to tell what was saying but used the word sex a lot. I texted my alcohol worker if I can come hide at the building as following me so I did to calm down and she then came with me to collect my bike and go further along. The receptionist said she has seen the description of what I was saying who keeps cycling around the building so think she knows who I mean. Unsafe world for woman I swear

They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Hey @JJLemon18
    I'm sorry you're not feeling well, having covid always takes a toll on the body and it's especially hard when you had social events planned. I'm by no means a doctor, but in my experience it's not unusual to feel exhausted and that every time you get covid it might feel slightly different. I hope you'll feel better and remember if you have any health concerns that are not life threatening you can always get advice by contacting 111. I know that trying to focus on something else like a tv show or hanging out with friends on videocall always helped me, do you have anything that you think may make you feel better?

    Hello @libbystrawberry
    I'm very sorry that you've been struggling so much with the people in your life and with your mental health. You seem to be convinced that people have negative feelings towards you. Could you please tell us a bit more about how you're feeling and why you think you're hated? I know that sometimes talking about feelings out loud can help us make sense of them and rationalise things.

    @genderless_fungi sorry I may have made it sound like it is covid. I'm not sure if it's covid. I was just comparing it to covid.
    But regardless, thank you :)
    When I'm ill I would often pass time with videogames. But right now I can barely even focus on that.

    Got my first comment about my weight loss and obviously just denied it and pretend I don’t see it but it’s just feeding into it & made me feel better but not in good way

    It's been a real pain trying to sleep. I've had 3 hours and it's only 5 in the morning. I probably shouldn't have had toast so close to bed time either 😅 I've been avoiding my prn meds like the plague but I don't think that I'll win the battle this time.

    Sometimes, it's like everything is fine. But then things slowly catch up on me and I'm drowning again. Surviving takes everything out of me.

    Might actually be moving into a nice home soon - once I do I'll send pictures of course if I don't end up burning the place down attempting to make a meal
