damn thats worth it. i might start downloading these apps then. i dont go to greggs at all but i might go on my birthday and download the app. also im not a student yet so id probably have to wait until september. im not sure if college counts as being a student as these companies only consider uni students to be eligible.
@toffuna101 don't worry, when i was in college, i was eligible for student discounts the same as at uni. KFC treated both the same. They'll give you a student email account at college, and you just need to sign up with that to something called studentbeans. It's free, and verifies your student status, and KFC will approve the student discount. Each time you go and spend £5, you get that freebie.
How are you
@River I'm doing alright thanks. My legs still killing me 😂
How's your day going?
and remember, i'm here to talk to if you want about anything. I might not be able to make things better or say the right stuff, but you don't need to be alone through anything your dealing with.
I ain’t getting to the dr today I just woke up and need to do washing every 40 mins 😂
@River if it still hurts as much tomorrow, then i'll go. For all I know it might just be a minor fracture and can heal on it's own, and the indent in my leg might just have some other explanation besides a break. Plus, my leg falling off would be an absolute sight 😂
and tbf river, same day doctors appointments are notoriously hard to get. It must suck having to do those chores that often instead of going. My mum had me cleaning the entire kitchen up this morning even with my leg being as messed up as it is, as well 😂. Still, it is what it is. There's always tomorrow for the doctors for you.
We get emergency same day appointments 🥲 if not u have to wait 7 weeks
Yes u need hospital
@River I know that feeling so much. It's not just my mum for me, but also my younger brother who doesn't know any better. So I'm spending all the time tidying up after everybody, keeping things nice, doing the dinners and doing their chores for them pretty much, and they just mess it up instantly. It sucks. I really can't wait to get my own place, or leave the country for either australia or america and just do me for once 😂You ain't alone in hating that.
And i'm glad your able to get emergency appointments. My GP just has a policy of, if it can't wait a few days, go to the walk in centre. The irony of it being called "walk in" given my leg's condition is not lost on me 😂😂😂 If tomorrow it still hurts as much as it does now, then i'll just go to A&E then.
Are you able to go to your doctor tomorrow then btw?
@DonnerKebab no problem bro, I'm not too bad thanks I'm just kinda irratable like I have a bit of an urger to kick off like at my course on the last day they told me a long term goal, so I said 1 of mine which is buying a house but they were like be more specific on buying a house, like what area, when by, I was just thinking "I dont fucking know what area" and I don’t know what area,
its whatevers affordable and safe at the time or I don't know when by, depends when I get a job, have the money. I know they kean well, trying to help me get my goals and its me Im just so irratable and I don't kick off but have that urge to not like anyone is doing wrong I just feel so easily triggered and irratable. I got a meeting about my next steps on Friday. Anyway, sorry to make it about me, how are you? Did you have your GP appointment yesterday, if so how did it go if you dont me asking?
hahaha @DonnerKebab to be fair when i said to our sales desk agent she said to go wherever i wanna be so i goes “ok bye then i’m away home” hahaha but ive had such a chill day tbh, on my way up to gates now to board a flight that has a 2 hours delay so me finishing in 40 mins means i ain’t gonna be here lol
ok
@Redemption no problem mate, i'm happy to hear you get all this stuff of your chest.
It's a long term goal, and the smaller details don't matter when talking long term. Housing prices change, area's become cheaper or more expensive. In long term planning, besides the aim to buy a house planning one day, that's generally the most you can plan for in regard to it. So don't feel angry about not being able to plan things in finer details, because when it comes to that, that's the most you can really do.
And getting angry and frustrated is normal, especially given the circumstances. What's good redemption, and is progress, is that despite having those feelings, you still control them and don't kick off. That's improved self control, so you should be proud of that.
And i didn't. I haven't made an appointment yet. Sounds silly, but I don't like the doctors. They're utter pricks. I'm waiting on my passport to come through to use as photo ID to get into a different GP practice. If it still hurts and if i'm still passing out by every now and then tomorrow, I'll go to A&E instead. Thanks for asking bro.
Hey Eylah, how are you?
@DonnerKebab yh I agree with all of that, maybe I could tell them that, like they're not doing anything wrong. Yh I try my best to avoid letting it out and kicking off, especially to these people because they are trying to help me.
I understand about not liking the doctors, I don't it really either, the dentist I don't like either, I had to get forced go last time. I hope you get well soon, no problem about me asking. I'm on support circle tonight so that should be good, you should sign up to that at some point.
very badly burnt from the sun lol
@Redemption my issue with my doctors are that they are useless. I have been told by them before, that because i had a medical issue for so long, it never needed solving. They honestly could not give a shit about me. I've had infected wounds that have caused fever, shaking and vomiting, and thought i'd rather face my odds with that than seek out my doctors "help". Hopefully i'm able to change GP soon enough and find doctors who do care.
Worst case scenario for my leg is it continues to hurt and sting, i continue passing out from time to time, and I just go to A&E instead. It's as simple as that.
And yeah, i will have to come along for a support circle next week. I'll sign up when the forms are open.
@eylah oh no, not again
Is it as bad as before?
@shannon_164 not a fan of Tesco's? I haven't been since the horsemeat scandal
at least you made it through today though
@DonnerKebab I get it, I heard about doctors being useless, I hear it with loads of people, it's ridiculous. Hopefully, you can get a decent GP yh. I hope it doesnt continue. I try to go on circle every couple of weeks just to give other people the chance to be able to join so might not join next week but yh. I just hope you feel better soon and hope you're, I hope your family are OK with you.
im red raw everywhere.. i mean everywhere.. it’s bad lol. i put sun cream on too. the uv was 5 so not too bad.
Oh that's not good
I hope everyone has a nice night. I will be off for the night due to current circumstances. Sleep well. Sorry again.
No @River please Don't worry , you didn't ruin anything, things happen and you 100 percent have a right to leave or stay or whatever feels best for you, it was your time. Please take care
