Left out
I don’t really know how to put this into words, but I’m feeling really overwhelmed and alone right now.
This morning I woke up already feeling like I was standing on the edge. I opened my laptop and everything just crashed in at once. We started a new module, there’s a new group presentation, and we were told to form groups by ourselves. Nobody chose me. That feeling of being left out hit harder than I expected.
Things haven’t been good back home either. I came to Denmark with so much hope, but it’s been 5 months and 3 days without a job. The anxiety, loneliness, and pressure just keep piling up, and some days it feels like too much.
I’m not looking for answers — I just really need someone to listen and maybe remind me I’m not invisible. If you’re here, thank you for reading.

I'm so glad that you reached out and had the courage to put this into words, it's a huge step to admit how you're feeling and I'm so glad you could.
Studying is hard, job seeking is hard, struggling with anxiety and depression is hard and you're doing this all in a new country?! I'm so sorry that you weren't chosen, that's really tough - I imagine it brought up a lot of feelings for you about other times in your life where you've felt excluded.
I hear that you're dealing with a lot and that the pressure of it all is growing too much to bear. I want you to know that you and your feelings matter, and I hope you can carve out some space today to be kind to yourself.
If you'd like to chat 1:1 about studying abroad (I spent a year in Germany as an Erasmus student!) and all that goes with it, I'd be really happy to listen. Sending much strength 💙
Thank you so much for your generous words 💖
I can understand what u are going through, this feeling of being left out in a society full of people, it feels like only u don't have anyone, someone to call a friend, someone to listen to u, to make u feel like u matter, ur understood, ur heard, I understand this feeling very well. I hope u realise that ur not alone even if it feels like it, I hope this message finds you well. I am a stranger but I understand you!
