    The situation in Myanmar is so heartbreaking... So many people going missing, murdered by the military. I'm so thankful my friend was evacuated

    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. 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

    Not a great day today. The usual aspects of disliking myself got to me. I'll sleep it off as per usual though :p

    I'm missing my two friends :/ all day I'm just thinking about them but I can't text them because I feel like I'm annoying. I wonder if they even think about me even for once... Probably not they got better friends than me. (｡•́︿•̀｡)
    Won't you come over and watch the stars with me?

    Doctor did warn me to keep an eye on my mood while having my medication doses lowered. Can confirm I feel like shit.

    Yeah I do, I’m not thrilled about it, I’m working full time at the hospital still and I took 6 days off over Easter. 3 of those 6 days I’m going to have to work at Primark now which is so annoying. It’s insanely early we’re all going to be bored. How do you feel about going back
    The steps you take don’t need to be big, they just need to take you in the right direction.

    Sat on my bed crying to myself, trying to keep it quiet. I'm so mentally drained and I'm really not ok

    Sending hugs @independent_ <3 I hope you're feeling a little better this morning. It's not stupid at all, and I understand what you mean about being alone with just yourself - perhaps getting some affirmations together and writing down a list of things you like about yourself could help? Inner conflicts are hard but you've got this and you know we're all here for youuu!

    I'm so fed up. I'm doing so bad mentally and I feel so alone. Nobody ever cares about me when I need them to the most. I put so much effort into everyone around me and get nothing when I need them

    Aww @Eleanor <3 thank you so much, yeah I think I was just having a moment :joy: just thinking about life then I opened an email which was a schedule for something I’ll be doing after lockdown and it looked so busy (right now that’s really scary haha).

    RIP Nan, I'm sorry I only just found out about your passing. I know you never met me, or even knew you had a granddaughter, but dad kept his family a secret. I hope you're finding peace now 🕊️

    Aww zen, I’m so sorry for your loss <3 it’s always so hard even if it’s someone you never met but is part of your family. Take good care of yourself and you know where I am if you need a chat or anything <3

    @Shaunie when you start approaching 30, you realise it's really not that old. :) Besides, 8 years is pretty far from any milestone. You're closer to 15 than you are to 30!

    Went to buy harmful things in my pharmacy all costed about £10. Then I went back and put it back on shelves and walked out. They just rang me (my pharmacist that’s connected to my gp) and said they have my return and if I want to come in today and talk in the consultation room
