How are you doing this week? I've had a really difficult week and it looks like I might need to quit another job :(
Best advice - in amongst the drama of the week, I met a wonderfully kind person that stayed with me during a panic attack and she said when things are happening that are beyond our control, we have to breathe deep, close our eyes if it helps, and what will be will be whether we worry about it or not.
Hi there Starlight! I’m really sorry to hear the news. I hope you are taking care of yourself and doing the best you can despite all of this. Quitting a job because of factors out of your control is never easy, but we can only do so much sometimes. I really hope that that advice was helpful to you from that kind person~ They seemed so sweet! Are you currently looking for a new job or taking a break now? How are things holding up? I hope to hear from you again soon.

How am I doing this week? Admittedly, not too well as some things I've struggled before has resurfaced again. Working on them, like I always have and I know that I'll make it through someday.
Best advice? Don't care about what others think. I've always been terrible self conscious to a fault. Taking things personally wasn't abnormal. But friends have told me what others day don't matter, as long as you're happy abs what you're doing isn't hurting anyone. I try to abide by it and live through myself without feeling too self deprecating which I am at times, admiringly. Again, still working on it and it is getting better 💪
That's all I have to say.
Hi Ash! I was concerned hearing about things resurfacing but was quite relieved to hear your positive outlook. If you do your best, I do believe your efforts will be rewarded some great day. You just keep doing you! I think learning to be secure with yourself is another task in itself, but yes, ultimately it should not matter what others think, as long as you are not hurting anyone. It takes time to build the confidence to accept it, but you’re so motivated! I have no doubt you will get where you need to soon ^^ keep it up Ash! We are here if you need it
