    I don't like having to wake up at 6:30am but at least I get a lay in. And then on Monday I don't have to be at school until 10:30am.

    It sounds really difficult that you're not 100% @FordRanger and you haven't been sleeping properly and you've been feeling stressed.

    Would anything, in particular, help to support you with all this at the moment? It sounds like you are having a really difficult time at the moment.

    We are here for you and listening to you if you would like to share more with us. I can sense you are trying to be positive though despite all of this which is really brave :)

    @Laura_tigger82 I think someone to talk to would help. I appreciate the support though

    @Chloe234 I hope Morgy finds the break helpful, doesn't have to struggle alone and can draw on the things that are usually useful <3

    I gave one of my classmates some breakup advice today and I haven't even been in a proper relationship before so it surprised me that I was actually able to be sort of useful. To be fair, I found most of the advice on Google although I did give my own piece of advice too.
    I said "Fuck him- not literally!"

    @Dancer - I can totally hear why you wouldn't like having to wake up at 6:30 am (I am also not a fan of early mornings!). I hope you enjoy your lay-in :3

    Wow for not having to be in until 10:30 am on Monday - extra big lay-in. Would you like to share with us why you don't have to be in until 10:30 am on Monday? :p

    You can talk to us if you want to @FordRanger, if that feels comfortable. I know you are really resourceful in being aware of all the support options though :)

    Hey @leyla26
  • Laura_tigger82Laura_tigger82 Discussion Boards Moderator Posts: 5,456 Part of The Furniture
    Well done you @Dancer. What an amazing achievement!

    Often, just being there helps. It is even more amazing that you were able to give your own piece of advice too :)

    Because a perk of being in sixth form means I sometimes have days where I don't have a lesson in the morning. If I don't have lesson 1 then I still have to come in at normal time and I would have an independent study session but if I don't have lesson 1 or lesson 2, I can come in later.
    It still means I have to wake up just after 8am though but I suppose it's better than 6:30am.
    Lesson 1- 8:30am to 9:30am
    Lesson 2- 9:30am to 10:30am
    Form- 10:30am to 10:50am
    Break- 10:50am to 11:15am
    Lesson 3- 11:15am to 12:15pm
    Lesson 4- 12:15pm to 1:15pm
    Lunch- 1:15pm to 2pm
    Lesson 5- 2pm to 3pm

    @Dancer - I see! Thank you for clarifying that for me. Yay for sixth form, especially with not having to wake up until 8 am on Monday :)

    @FordRanger - It is really positive to hear you feel able to vent on the boards and stuff which helps. Is there anything you want to get off your chest this evening that might help you? :)

    @Laura_tigger82 yh, I'm just worried about my future and I just think my self esteem isn't tye best, that what I made a discussion about
  • .leyla26.leyla26 Posts: 4,487 Community Veteran
    @FordRanger I think I'm getting a promotion at work which is scary and exciting!! Not planning on staying there for longer than a probably another year or so but it'll pay more and look good lmao so probably worth it :)

    Have you watched any good Youtube videos or anything recently? Anything stand out?

    I hear you @FordRanger. It sounds like finding what you want to do for your career is really difficult for you at the moment.

    However, being unsure about your future also means you have low self-esteem (which might in turn also affect certainty about your future). Both of these are affecting your sleep.

    Hopefully, our wonderful community members will be able to respond to your thread soon. I can hear talking to people (particularly non-doubtful people!) is helpful for you <3

    @leyla26 what job is it? That's good though, congrats.

    I just been watching High Peak Autos, he made a video on some cars he bought and sold for profit. He's a car dealership in Stockport and reviews cars. Also been watching Matt Watson from carwow. Ksi also win his fight against Faze Temperr
