    @Supernova I’m shattered tbh. I’ve already had one nap lol. How are you?

    @lovemimoon I can’t do all-nighters anymore (well, sometimes my brain doesn’t like sleeping but I can’t do an all nighter by choice) but was always a night owl staying up till about 2am until very recently. Idk if I like my new schedule but I’m no worse off for it

    @independent_ That's fair! As fun as it is to be a night owl, there's only so much the brain can take. Your schedule sounds like a dream at this point. :joy:

    @GreenTea - That's good to hear! :joy: What have you been up to?

    @lovemimoon I liked being a night owl, the days didn’t feel so long lol.

    Anything planned for the day?

    Sorry to hear @lovemimoon I'm feeling similar still. Salix alba encapsulated it quite well in the other thread, just a perpetual feeling of wrongness. Up to much tonight or during the week?

    @independent_ early night too then I imagine? I'm feeling pretty exhausted too tbh, having a period of low mood and anxiety for a few weeks has drained me. Looking forward to anything during the week?

    @Supernova probably will try to sleep at a reasonable time but idk if the nap will have helped with that :joy:

    I’m sorry to hear you’re been feeling low, I understand how draining it is. Probably plays a part in why I’m always tired lol.

    I’ve not got much on this week tbh it’s gonna be really quiet. How about you?

    @independent_ Apart from uni work? More uni work. :joy: What about you? What have you got planned?

    @Supernova - Completely agree with you on Salix! That resonated with me. During the week, I need to pick up anti-depressants from my pharmacy - just started a trial.

    @lovemimoon oh nooo!! I don’t miss studying one bit! It’s gonna be a very quiet week here, I need to find something to fill my time.

    @independent_ You can do my uni work... It's a fun time-waster! :3:joy:
    So you completed uni??? If you don't mind me asking.

    @lovemimoon that’s a generous offer but I couldn’t write an essay if my life depended on it :joy:

    I actually never went to uni, I did a year at college but didn’t get a very good result because I was really struggling at the time. So I haven’t been in education for a while now, a part of me would love to go to uni but another knows I’m just not academic enough for it lol.

    What are you studying?

    @independent_ academia is the worst, but you can do stuff at uni or college thats more practical, if you like anything like that

    @independent_ I'm currently studying Illustration but I'm planning to go to college afterwards to focus on counselling.

    I agree with @Apollo here. Plus, academia is in a serious need for reform.

    @independent_ quiet week for me too, I guess that's part of the problems I've been having. Seems like I have to be permanently occupied with something in order to not think negatively :p

    Remake of an old game I enjoyed is coming out later in the week though so, hopefully I'll be able to immerse myself in it enough to not think for a while. :)

    The group/support chats @lovemimoon -- they're on every Monday. Usually a bit too busy for me though

    yeah it’s the group chats @lovemimoon it’s on every night between 8 and 9.30, and the general chat tends to be quieter than the support chat <3

    @Apollo I'm not doing well. You?

    ApolloApollo Posts: 804 Part of The Mix Family
    Eh, I'm doing okay. I agreed to go out tommorow and I can't tell if that was maybe a little stupid. Last time I went out I felt horrible and anxious, but I mean I'd rather try to go out than not try, when the alternative is lying in my bed and doing nothing.

    @lovemimoon why do you feel bad? Unless you'd rather not say

    @Apollo - That's not stupid, that's a motive! What are you planning to do?

    I just feel this despair. Well, I've felt it for a couple of weeks now but it intensified.

    We're just gonna sit in the benches outside a pub, I always think our gang is very out of place in a pub but that makes it better. I hope you feel better soon @lovemimoon
