    I can try, it's just a presentation that has to be due by the end of May, but I'm literally running out of time, I'm literally a failure for everything 💔 😭

    Can you get extensions on things in college? I’m sure they be more than happy to help you. You’re definitely not a failure at all you have so much going on it’s completely understandable if you need a hand with some of it

    Would really echo @Dandelion here @Leila. If you feel suicidal right now or you're in crisis, The Mix community isn't setup to give you the support you need. But those specialist organisations above are setup to support you in a safe way while you're feeling suicidal. 🙂

    If you'd like to unpack some of what's going on for you more broadly, the community is definitely here for that. I know you've been chatting through your legal case for example.

    I'm going to close this thread for now, but sending hugs and support. ✨
    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
    The truth resists simplicity.
    I no longer work at The Mix! If you need anything, message or tag @TheMix
