    @Zay - You are welcome. It is the very least you deserve. Now, focus on your revision and health! (mental and physical) :3

    I'm feeling really deflated, it feels like whenever I apply for a job to help people who are struggling with mental health, I either get ignored or rejected. It feels like nobody is giving me a chance, and It's getting harder to bounce back each time.

    I am really sorry to hear you are struggling.

    I believe you deserve to be loved just like everyone else does! What makes you think you don't?

    I am glad to hear you are doing things that you think will help you. How are you finding your new school? :3

    Hi @Zay

    I am so sorry to hear you are struggling with your appetite. Often, stress is what makes me lose my appetite. Are you having a similar reaction? Try some bread or biscuits until you feel more settled or some favourite treats. Anything is better than nothing :)

    Hi @Zay

    I am sorry to hear you are feeling anxious. Yeah, anxiety can do similar things to stress, unfortunately. Do you want to talk about why you are feeling anxious?

    I am really proud of you for managing to have some bread. If you feel ready to, try and have some more bread or biscuits or some favourite treats. Little amounts of food but regularly may help at the moment :)

    Hi @Zay. Sorry to hear you are going through so many things, no wonder you are feeling anxious. Please remember to reach out for support if you need anything, we are all here for you. I truly believe things will get better given time. If you're still not sure about your meds, I would encourage you to talk to your GP! :)

    Feeling a lot of negative emotions today. Ashamed, disgusted, embarrassed, frustrated, useless, fragile and angry.

    Am I going to be on emotional support for life? Ups and downs are relentless I just want to be "normal". Urges to SH are making me agitated.

    My sister works in management at Primark, where they are cutting 400 jobs I just pray to God she doesn’t loose her job
    The steps you take don’t need to be big, they just need to take you in the right direction.

    I can’t deal with this, nope I can’t do this anymore, like you are an honest prick that’s trying to make me out as a liar. I’m not okay. I’m not coping. I’m literally a mess and can’t function right now. I don’t want to be alive to deal with this anymore.

    I’m safe tonight btw

    Hey @Mel_! Thanks for your response. I am really sorry to hear that happened, it must be really frustrating, scary, and upsetting! Hopefully, they can go on evidence which would mean him pleading not guilty does not matter in legal terms. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to reach out to us for support <3
