    I haven’t had a good week. It’s a case of what i might call brain fog.. but at the same time, my brain is running at 100MPH .. all the fucking time. Imagine you’ve got a song on loop in your head, and 50 different thoughts buzzing around there too? Sometimes i can calm it down.. but this week is not one of those weeks. I have done almost nothing since I hoovered on Monday afternoon. I feel so lazy. But my mind is both on overdrive, but also not working.. does that make any fucking sense? Probably not.

    Edited to add that I am acutely aware of the things i need to do to help me, that is cut down on phone use and get a bit more exercise. But it’s so hard when my brain feels like I’m walking through mud but it feels like I’m trying to walk through mud in boots that are not made for mud.. at 100MPH

    @Redemption thank you so much. Im exhausted like it's not just oh im tired like im mentally exhausted like the exhaustion that drags you down I literally came home from school layed down in bed and fell asleep i just woke up its half six and I have so much homework to do. During the summer my IT teacher was supposed to give us hwk during the summer but they didnt and I though oh well it must be bc its a BTEC turns out they just forgot to update the system so we got a piece of work yesterday something that mind you was supposed to be done in 10 hours but its due tmr and somehow it's our fault im gonna fucking kill myself. I haven't even started it I have to do like 4 summaries and these things called cornell notes tbh I might not even bother ill get a 0 but i have other work that takes priority

    @Cutelivejazz I’m so sorry that sounds awful and you’re not to blame. Breathe for a minute, send your teacher a short message asking for an extension, and do one tiny task (one sentence) to start. If you feel like you might hurt yourself, call 999 or Samaritans on 116 123 (UK) / text SHOUT to 85258 you’re not alone. Support chat is on soon too

    @Redemption hey bro, you mentioned it was the wrong thread in the other one. Just wanted to let you know I'm here if you want to chat a bit about stuff.

    @Redemption hey bro, you mentioned it was the wrong thread in the other one. Just wanted to let you know I'm here if you want to chat a bit about stuff.

    @DonnerKebab really appreciate it bro, I saw you replied to my thread about the courses, I know you said do the 3 month course but I decided to go with the 6 weeks course in the end, I didn't ignore your advice though and took it into consideration but spoke to the 6 week one and they said it should get me into work quicker, I just was was told Id get my travel expenses paid but my key worker is working slow with that.

    @Redemption as i said bro, do what's right for you. If they've told you that's the one that will get you into work faster, and your more comfortable with it, then go for it. Both of them sound awesome, both of them will help you to advance, and ultimately, you know more about them than what i do. Good luck with the 6 week course bro. It's still taking steps forward, will help you get closer to your goals, and that's something to be proud of.

    So how are you feeling about it? You mentioned it starts very soon.
