    I fucking hate my epilepsy - caused all these mood swings and now for me to attempt suicide and self harm over the smallest things like fucking video games or small disagreements with my parents - it's a living hell. I'm completely safe though don't worry
    Heard that you're safe @IainJammyboy, but wanted to acknowledge the weight of this. :( Something having that much pull on your life and the way you feel must be nightmarish.
    The truth resists simplicity.

    Felling really really shit mentally. Feel suicidal but have school. Really don't wanna go and deal with the teachers

    Sending you lots of strength Chloe - let us know how school goes today <3

    I know there's a few teachers there you've found helpful to chat to. Do you feel able to talk to them about how you've found the holidays?

    You're doing so well to keep reaching out, remember you're not alone and there are services you can contact at any time - Samaritans, Papyrus, Crisis Messenger.

    We're here for you <3

    It's so fucking shitty having an eating disorder. I've had it for almost 4 years. I finally thought I was recovering but all the progress as been fucking ruined over the past month and it's been worse this week. Honestly give up.

    Dont want to rant but I still remember when we didn't know about my cousin being trans until my uncle came down and their deadname was on the card, my parents wrote on the card and they didn;t know my cousin was trans and I didn't too. i just feel a bit bad that their deadname was on the card to be honest. But I know for next time. I just feel bad about it and hope they are okay.

    No, it’s good to be honest. Sometimes people just take a little bit to react properly. It’s not your fault 🩷

    Hey @Chloe234 just wanted to follow up to see how you're doing. It sounds like returning to school was really difficult. You're definitely not a burden - we all need support and you are so deserving of that when you've had such a difficult holiday. I'm sure the lady you feel comfy speaking with wouldn't feel this way about you. They should be really proud of you for reaching out <3

    I also noticed you mention you've been struggling with an ED and things have gotten worse. It sounds like you're going through so much right now Chloe. You are doing so well to keep going. Maybe you can find some space this weekend to spend time with family or friends, or doing things you enjoy to take some control back. You can do this :).

    Have you been able to reach out for any support with your ED? I'm aware that Beat run online support groups and you can read more about them here.

    Beat also have a help finder, to help you look for support in your area.

    Keep going Chloe <3

    I don't know what's happening. Since new year I've been constantly extremely anxious and sad, everything has been so horrible and depressing. I've failed two courseworks, I just couldnt do them, brain wouldn't concentrate. I cant be motivated to do anything. I feel constantly sick, really weak, and dissociated. And all I want to do is cry. I think I've given up.

    Though I guess that sets the bar very low for this year.

    Sounds like I'm exaggerating and making this all up :/

    I just feel like an inconvenience and a total waste of space. I don’t deserve anyone so I should probably just cut everyone off - they’ll be happier anyway

    Thank you @JJLemon18 . I feel like I’m just making everything worse here and that’s the last thing I want to do. Nobody really likes me irl so there must be a reason for that. I don’t want to cause problems and I hate myself so much. I dont know where this came from either 😭

    @AnonymousToe you're absolutely not making anything worse! In fact I'd say its much better having you here! And i'm sure many others would say the same ;)

    I also feel like nobody likes me irl, but you wouldn't say all these negative things to me too, would you? (Unless you would, then idk... :lol: )

    Believe a little in yourself.

    @River thats so awful, I promise you’re none of those things. Nobody deserves to be abused and you’re a lovely person so you definitely don’t!! You need to stop talking to whoever said that because they sound like a terrible person.

    (PS: if you saw me react with ‘LOL’ that was an accident, stupid fat fingers!)

    Sending hugs ❤️
