Anybody want to vent or chat about anything?

We normally do video yeah but last few times I’ve not wanted to throw up on call to her. Yeah she is okay, she’s better than my last one who told me she needed alcohol after a session with me 😭 I just find it it hard to not make it awkward, I stare at the floor everytime @DonnerKebab

@Rose113 i think you mentioned you think the throwing up is a reaction to the folic acid. Have you spoken to your doctor about it?

And yeah, counselling can be awkward at times. The new one i got after was literally the prettiest person i had ever seen. I was already anxious as hell, and that it was the first time i was sitting alone talking to a girl, and counselling was a blast. Stuttering the whole time and couldn't make eye contact. She actually didn't mind. She called it cute and helped me work a little through it. I hope you're able to get one who doesn't judge but helps and supports the awkwardness feeling like i got. Kicked myself for not doing a 12 week counselling course.

What might help you, if it feels awkward with the staring or not wanting to throw up on the video call is to do it over the phone perhaps, or if you can feel yourself about to be sick, hold the call while it happens? I don't quite know how bad or sudden the sickness is though, or if you feel it would be too awkward, but it might be worth trying for you.

I’ve been in my PJs sitting in bed since 7pm, don’t feel well at all. Had some sleep meds and cold meds so hoping to sleep soon. But who knows.

Oh shit, I hope you get well soon

Thanks so much bro @DonnerKebab

Redemption · June 3

I hope you're ok too, you posted quite early @DonnerKebab so I hope you're sleeping OK and have had enough time sleeping. I know being out work is stressful and can cause lack if sleep, like I struggled to sleep tbh but got some in the end, could have got a bit more but yh tonight I'll try to. I should be ok.

Rose113 · June 3

Managed not to relapse last night and went to sleep instead in the end

Thank you @Redemption

I was asleep before 12 and slept literally right through until just before 9, so hopefully that has helped a bit, but probably won't be going far from the house today. My family have whatever it is too

Hey @shannon_164 it was someone beginning with T, she was more bothered about telling me how she was going to try aerial hoop to like bruh I came needing support lol not a friend

Now I’m blasting the sad songs

that’s exactly who i thought it was!!! i’m not at all surprised you had that experience with her:( you don’t deserve that - she should have been offering support! i hope you’re ok

Cool @independent_ what's your order?

independent_ · June 3

Not sure yet @Redemption. I’m either going with sausage, bean and cheese melt and a chicken bake or sausage bean and cheese and a sausage roll - I’ll decide when I get there.

I’m gonna relax this afternoon though because i think if I don’t I’ll feel worse again! Might watch a film or something

i hope you’re ok @eylah - sending you a virtual hug

i’m sorry you weren’t treated well, you don’t deserve that! if you want to talk about it, we’re here for you!

eylah · June 3

i cant share what happened here bc i know many ppl have trauma etc from certain people so i cant share but thankyou.

i was mistreated by many ppl last night.

independent_ · June 3

@eylah similar happened to me in hospital. I’m so sorry you had to go through that.

@shannon_164 I hope you start to feel better soon too. I’m just trying to accept that I obviously need to rest a bit. Luckily I’m at home for the next couple of days anyway.

@DonnerKebab I started my course , it went ok, a woman came to meet me outside the bus stop and took me back to get the bus back too, she's so kind to be doing this because a lot of places would be like I'm on my own in terms of finding it. She's only moved to the UK herself a few months ago, I feel a bit embarrassed that someone that new to the UK had to show me where somewhere was in my own city was she moved to the UK but got a job here too like quicker than me. I know we shouldn't compare ourselves to people though, I think the people there are looking for work too like me, I'm not fully sure if it's everyone tbh but I think it is, the people who I spoke to were looking for work. It went ok though, just was nervous, self conscious like questioning am I doing this wrong? Am I doing that wrong etc? I guess I just over think like previous setbacks have caused that because I worried about doing stuff wrong and I was and flopping opituinities that I thought were suitable. Hopefully this is what this course should help, heard a few others saying they need to improve confidence too. Sorry for the whole essay anyway bro, hope you're all good.

hey @Rose113 🙂

you would be amazing at youth work - i recently completed level 2 youth work and it was so much fun, i definitely recommend youth work courses!

i know it can be hard, but ignore what others say and think about what you want, that’s what matters the most

Rose113 · June 3

@shannon_164 I cant, like my teacher said my mental health and trauma would pass onto them

eylah · June 3
