    oooo interesting thankyou @Dancer ! I hope Santa is bringing me some vegan chocolate this year!

    I went to the shops earlier and I was meant to be buying gifts, but ended up just buying lots of chocolate for me :D

    Do not go shopping today if you don't have to. That was a fucking nightmare

    I have to agree @independent_ - i went out quickly with my dad today to get a few bits and the traffic in town was a nightmare
  • Amy22Amy22 Posts: 4,786 The Mix Elder
    Also the same in my area, as my dad went out for some stuff and it was packed out there. So glad I wasn't out today.

    I'm sorry to hear that @independent_ hope you fell better soon. I think I have also got the start of a cold coming on like this morning I was very sniffy and whiffy.

    Hope you are feeling better soon @Amy22. There are a lot of colds and things going around at the moment, aren't there? :/

    Oh no @independent_. I agree, you rarely complain so you must be feeling awful :/

    Lots of rest and hydration for you! <3

    Ha, that's fair enough @independent_ . Another button I like is the randomiser button on Netflix! It chooses what to watch for you.

    How is Coronation Street this evening? Glad to hear you are resting and trying not to infect people :)

    It's cool, what are you watching @Amy22
  • Laura_tigger82Laura_tigger82 Moderator Posts: 5,299 Part of The Furniture
    It sounds really difficult that you are not feeling 100 percent and worried about your future @FordRanger. Is there anything, in particular, that is making you feel this way at the moment?

    We are here for you and listening to you if you would like to share more with us. I am good thank you but here to support you most importantly :)

    @Laura_tigger82 it’s been alright, just on in the background. Not really paying it full attention to know what’s going on.

    Yeah I had one drink earlier cuz I fancied it but the thought of any more makes me want to hide in a corner so I’m glad I stayed home, but sister raging wasn’t exactly helpful.

    Ooh I’ve never seen that button, tempted to go find it lol

    That's fair @independent_. Sometimes background TV is more than enough - especially when you are feeling poorly.

    It sounds positive that you are doing what you fancy and looking after yourself and your boundaries. However, I can hear your sister raging wasn't exactly helpful.

    Would you like to tell us more about how this made you feel? Here for you and listening to you if you would like to share more with us.

    Good luck finding the button! I do find it a useful shortcut to scrolling through for ages =)

    It’s ok, can’t be arsed letting her bother me. Thank you though @Laura_tigger82 <3

    Mum’s out for her christmas party with work tonight then busy couple of days so I really hope I’m feeling better but I doubt it. I still have to wrap a couple of presents for mum (dad wants me to do his as well) so I’ll go find those soon and get them done. Adulting sucks!!!!!

    It's just I feel like a failure, I don't have a proper job yet, my cousin said I should be earning money now I'm 22 which I cried about the first time but recently when he said it I didnt because even though I'm not on best of terms he's right. I'm not sure what to do, I feel unmotivated. It sucks

    You are doing really well @independent_. It sounds like you are trying to rise above it which is really positive, especially so that it doesn't bother you.

    I hope you are feeling better for the busy couple of days. However, I can hear your doubt - you can only do your best and feel how you feel.

    Good luck with wrapping your mum and dad's presents. Adulting can, indeed, suck sometimes :p

    It sounds like you are enjoying watching Mrs Doubtfire @Amy22, especially as it has Robin Williams in it. Do you have a particular favourite thing about Mrs Doubtfire? :)
