    Hey @TheNightmare so sorry to hear you've had a particularly bad week, it sounds like you have so much going on and I hope it helped to get some thoughts written down :3 You're very strong for sharing your difficulties with us, and I myself can relate to a lot of your feelings of uncertainty after school and struggling to find a career. So you're not alone in that <3


    I'm sorry to hear you got placed on the wrong programme, but well done for reaching out to your work coach and getting it sorted. Although it's probably a little inconvenient, I'm sure there will definitely have been some things you've taken from the experience.

    It really sounds like you're taking some positive steps to move forward in your careers search and you should definitely be proud of that <3 Doing workshops, applying for jobs, doing interviews - these are all really great things and will all be small steps towards your goal in the end.

    It must have been difficult to hear what your uncle said, but having no GCSEs definitely shouldn't define you, your future or your worth. Many people go on to succeed without 'traditional' qualifications, and that can definitely be you too. :3 All of us here at the Mix certainly believe in you, and I'm sure you have lots of amazing and unique qualities that will help you get a job that's right for you.

    I know it can be really hard not to compare yourself with others, but really everyone is on their own time scale. There may be some things which have taken you a little longer, but also other things that you actually did before some of your peers. As you mentioned with the driving, you did get there in the end and I'm sure you will too with your career.

    I hope this has been somewhat helpful - we all really believe in you and there will definitely be light at the end of that tunnel. Keep going and look after yourself by finding ways to take the pressure off when you need to. <3

    Remember we are always here to listen :3
