    “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 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.

    I left work early cause I feel really shit about the things that have been going on online. I asked duty manager and said yeah that’s fine. She obviously told the store manager when I didn’t know she knew I had really bad mental health. But the store manager came to me while I was putting on my jacket to leave in locker room. (Managers done go in the locker room so I was thinking ah shit when she saw me. & knew must be cause of me leaving. I don’t wanna put them on edge I’m going to do something to myself just cause I leave early. I know it’s duty of care but once I leave they don’t have duty of care so it is quite nice they still care even when I am actually leaving. She asked me if I wanted to chat before I leave so I said yeah and yeah was explaining thing while trying not to cry lol. Told me to just ignore but yeah easier said than done. I also pinky promised I wouldn’t hurt myself but it feels very tempting. But yeah I am safe

    Feeling super anxious tonight. Panicking about being watched and feeling unsafe, however irrational it may be.

    And I've been super ill besides. Not having the best time.

    Feeling a bit worthless and as though nothing good can ever come of the future. Surprisingly enough, it's not as bad as it could be, but when I think this kind of stuff, suicidal and self harm thoughts are only a stone's throw away.

    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    I don’t want to go back to work Sunday. Being dead sounds a lot better

    Something always feels off and I don't know what to do with myself
  • SienaSiena Posts: 15,463 Skive's The Limit
    I was sitting in locker room waiting for my shift to start like a few others and it was quiet and someone pointed out my arms saying “what are they” I said “it’s nothing” and she was like “ummm nothing” then she was like “be happy girl” so she knew exactly what it was and still pointed it out for everyone to look at me. Like it wasn’t already obvious but want to make me feel more insecure than I already do

    i give up, whats the actual point in services when they are literally leaving you to basically die

    @Supernova - That sounds really difficult. Would you like to tell us more about what "always feels off" looks like for you? We are here for you if you would like to share more with us :)

    @Siobhan - That sounds really tough. I can hear how you think she pointed it out for everyone to look at you and this made you feel more insecure. No one has the right to do or say anything that makes you feel uncomfortable. What might make this feel more manageable for you at the moment? :)

    @Mel_ That sounds really difficult. We are all here for you. Would you like to tell us more about how you are feeling at the moment? We are here for you if you would like to share more with us :)

    I had rehearsals at school today for a show that is happening tomorrow. One of the teachers sent me to the photocopier to photocopy something for her/enlarge it. I got wolfwhistled at by one of the student welfare staff and then some younger students made some not very pleasant comments about my appearance (I don't get what was so bad about a leotard and leggings.) I told a teacher though and it got sorted but it made me feel really upset.
