Still not great but I'll be fine, just gotta act like I'm okay
@ella I'm ok atm but just want to get into work, like the process is stressful. Thanks for asking though.
I'm so sorry to hear this @Chloe234, sending you so many hugs. Life can be very cruel sometimes and it's not fair. We're here to listen and support you through this. Keep reaching out.
Thankyou Gemma. Idk it's selfish but I feel like I jinxed it in a way...when I visited her in hospice a couple weeks ago I told my friends I didn't think she had much longer than 2 weeks left...and now 2 weeks later and we've been told she can die anytime. 💔 she doesn't deserve to die
We are always here for you- keep reaching out
@Orchid059 I really appreciate you checking up on me genuinely so thanks a lot and you have replied to my thread too. Yh it would be helpful to discuss it, it is to do with finding a job, I didnt get much sleep last night over it either like its stressful, just getting into work, I have just been worried about my future just not having my life sorted out yet and everything. I just want to get sorted. Hopefully I sleep better soon though.
Hey, I'm still really not doing good but I'm trying. It's so hard atm because it's almost as if I'm waiting for my aunt to die even tho I'm not its just kinda expecting the news and trying to prepare for when they come. Idk it's a weird feeling but I keep getting myself all upset if I think about it. Today was my first day back at school after Easter and I've been an emotional mess, I've been teary all day trying not to cry and been sneaking on my phone every hour to see if my aunt is alive still or not.(if I've got a message saying she's passed) ...I'm just in peices
I know too well the stress of trying to get a job!! I hope everything goes well for u, I’m sure you’ll find a job soon, it took me monthss before I got my first job. If it helps u could try volunteering somewhere to get some experience, I just did some in a charity shop for a couple of months!!
@Sunshine12 yh hopefully, I have like a work mentor so I'm discussing with them about maybe short term volunteering. I just want to get into paid work ASAP but I think some short term volunteering might give advantage over people who don't have that experience. Also can I ask when you were looking for work was it this year, last year, during covid time? Just was wandering because at different times it's been harder to get a job and maybe at some times it's been easier too. Also do you think I need to volunteer the same field I need to work in, like for example if I wanted to do delivery driving do you think I should do delivery driving volunteering or if I wanted work in retail do you think I would need to do retail volunteering etc?
