    Hey @ellie2000,
    Is this an app that's there to support you during difficult times? Just wanted to check in and see how you're doing?

    @ellie2000 I'm sorry to hear you feel that way. It can be very hard to find meaning in life or discover purpose, and it can be a struggle in regards to believing whether God exists or not as well. These are very good questions about life, I too struggle to answer them.

    One thing that can be reassuring is that we may be able to give our lives meaning, or can discover it when interacting it with others. I believe that there is meaning in your life! You can choose what you want to live by. If you'd like further support or help with these questions, this forum can help!

    Hi @ellie2000

    There really are many reasons to live. You might struggle at times as life is a rollercoaster but you won't always feel this way. I believe in hope. I have attached one of my favourite quotes to this post as I think it might help you too! But also I want you to know that everyone has different reasons for living and we are more than happy to help you explore yours. If it helps, I am not religious either but I recognise I have a higher power in using my story to help others through the darkness I have felt! Sending you hugs <3

    Hi @ellie2000

    Yess, you have raised a really important point. In your game, if you lose, you can indeed click reset. In life, if you lose, there is a similar button. It is called try, try and try again! I don't believe you ever lose, you just learn more ways of how not to do something which moves you closer to how to do something :3

    Hey @ellie2000,

    I know it's very cliché but life has a lot of ups and downs, and I honestly believe at some point, these struggles will be easier to cope with, with time. I think you're doing amazing, by trying each day. How are you feeling today? I also just wanted to say that in life you can always, always reset. It's never too late to change what you want to, or what hobbies you take up etc. You're a very important person, Ellie. Failing is just a way of learning and growing, I know it may not always be that easy, and it can be so hard to cope with constant setbacks, but I've seen how resilient and strong you are, and I'm very inspired by you, and your abilities to persevere through difficult times. We're very lucky to have you here Ellie!

    @ellie2000 I think it shows great strength that you were thinking about reaching out for support! If you do feel that way, please do reach out to them, that's what they're trained for, to be there with you through these difficult times. Can you tell me more about what's making you feel anxious about the week? It sounds like the week days maybe lonely for you, is that right?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,327 Wise Owl
    @ellie2000 Also, I know that you find it easier to text, so if you feel comfortable reaching out, SHOUT is always a great option, text SHOUT to 85258, if this would be a more comforting form of support for you!

    Hi @ellie2000

    Sorry, I am not sure I quite know what you mean. Of course, I know what positive phrases are. However, do you mean you are looking for some positive phrases or something else? Hopefully, we can help to answer your question! :)

    To say or write down to look at, if I'm feeling sad
    Crazy mad insane
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,327 Wise Owl
    @ellie2000 It sounds like this is something that's very distressing for you, you're always more than welcome to reach out to us, and SHOUT (85258) or The Samaritans (116 123) whichever is easiest for you. You and your mental health are what's important, do you feel like writing these positive phrases down will help you when the feelings get too much?
  • Laura_tigger82Laura_tigger82 Moderator Posts: 5,307 Part of The Furniture
    Hi @ellie2000

    Thanks for your response. I am sorry to hear you are feeling sad. There are many positive phrases on Google Images you can find when you are feeling sad. Would you like to talk to us about why you are feeling sad? We are always here for you and listening to you! I have copied and pasted the link for positive phrases when feeling sad on Google Images in a spoiler below. I hope this helps but if there's anything else we can do to help please just let us know! <3
