    Hey @bignosegirly0, thank you for sharing how you feel. I can hear how you're feeling upset and frustrated with your experiences with finding love. It's something that clearly matters a lot to you, so your feelings are valid. I'm sorry to hear that you feel you're treated unfairly due to your looks, that's not right at all and you don't deserve to go through that.

    It's a tricky situation - being with someone who we know is toxic isn't good, but feeling lonely is also a painful experience as well. You're doing your best, but I can understand how the experiences you've had feel disheartening.

    We're here to listen to you and support you, because your feelings are valid. Do feel free to let us know how you're doing and share your emotions with us here. Can I check that you're safe at the moment? I'll include some support links below in case you find you need them:

    Hey @bignosegirly0 , thank you for your post and for being so honest with us here <3

    I know you mentioned feeling like you want to die yesterday, and you were trying your very best to cope and keep safe through this loneliness, which gets all-consuming sometimes. Can I check in to ask how safe you're feeling today?

    How did your work-shift go yesterday in the end?

    We're here for you!

    Nothing that ever helps sounds dumb @bignosegirly0! We are really glad to hear your hobby makes you sometimes glad to be alive.

    Can we ask you what your hobby is if you feel comfortable sharing more about your hobby and what brings you joy? Is it the piano or something else - if piano, what do you like playing the most?

    We are also really glad that you are here with us <3

    It sounds like creative things really help you @bignosegirly0 which is wonderful! When it gets boring after a while, what do you find helpful? I often find switching between hobbies helpful. For example, some weeks going to the cinema or theatre and other ways staying home reading or colouring! :)

    That sounds fair @bignosegirly0, hobbies can often vary depending on mood! What is most important is ensuring you are able to engage in the hobbies you need and want.

    Wishing you the best of luck with your drivers theory which is coming up! How are you feeling about this at the moment? It sounds so exciting but can also cause nerves :p

    I have just realised this means you would have already had your theory @bignosegirly0! I am super excited for you, how does it feel the theory test went on Thursday? :)
