Hi @redmark, how are you? :D

How are you feeling today? :)
I'm feeling ok. Could have been better, but could have been worse too, I guess. No binging today, so I'm all good. No self-harming either, so I'm all good. I hope today will be good. I'm plotting on going for a run, if I can borrow some running shoes. I'm at my grandma's apartment you see. It's very nice. I like being there.

How has this week been for you? :)
The week could have been worse I guess? I don't really know. I ate like... batshitcrazy one late night this week, but after that I have been good. I have not ridden my bike as much as I wanted to, but it has been at the bikeshop for the reperation on the breaks, so I have to wait until monday to go and get it, and it kind of sucks. I miss my bike. I miss my bikerides :/

Have you got to practice any self-care lately? Do you maybe have something planned? :)
I'm going to go for a run or a walk later on, does that count?

Hey there @EvilRegalsReadToo *hugs* (if you are okay with it)

It is always really nice to hear from you around here! heart

Well, I am dealing with a cold right now, but nothing too bad. Thank you for asking :)

yay! I am really glad to hear that you are having such a nice day and I am really proud of you for not SHing or binging today. I do hope that you will be able to go for a run soon as well as it sounds like a good bit of exercise to do. Of course, if you will just stay in and recharge a bit that sounds really good as well - I mean, I am just glad that you like being there anyhow ^-^

Oh, I am glad to hear that your week has been overall good as well. I am sorry to hear that you do not have your bike right now as I know that you do enjoy bikerides but it is important to keep things safe and the brakes repaired if needed. I do hope everything will go alright and you will have your bike back on Monday :)

Going out to the fresh air does deifnitely count as self-care, if you ask me! :)

Stay awesome! heart

@redmark

hey so im doing okay so far today, i actually managed to sleep for 8 hours which is great and im probably gonna be watching horror movies all day because im still too tired to go outside or socialize in general but it could be worse

in general ive had a pretty bad week, ive had a few panic attacks at school and relapsed which wasnt very great but im slowly getting better i think. i did however pass most of my exams which is great. i also found this website and its really helped.

im probably going to draw or paint again which i havent done in a while and probably some yoga because thats not as tiring as other sports. im also going to try to stop drinking as much coffee because that makes me really nervous and jumpy so yeah

Hey there @heyitsalli *hugs* (if you are okay with it)

It is really nice to have you here with us! heart

Oh, a day, just for yourself to recharge a bit sounds really nice. I like to stay in every once in a while as well and watching horror movies sounds nice - although, I am not the biggest fan of those, but I can see the appeal to them for sure :)

I am sorry to hear that you have had such a tough week tho. I can imagine that it had to be really draining to deal with those panic attacks but I am really proud of you for still doing so well and passing your exams, in spite of the stress and everything else going on :)

Also, welcome, we are really glad to have you here, I hope you will find this place helpful :)

Painting and drawing sounds really awesome. I...well...attempt to do them sometimes as well, although not really good at them :P
Also, yoga sounds really nice and just drinking a bit less coffee can be helpful as well to decrease those side effects that caffeine might have on you :)

Stay awesome! heart

Hey @redmark !! How've you been? Missed you too

I'm not the best but I'm getting through some things. I'm also a little stomach sick but that's okay, it happens.

This week was again, not the best. I'm on vacation but I'm not close with my family so it really doesn't feel like a vacation. I should have asked to stay home. I did that once and it was amazing to not have to be with them for a week. I wish my friends were here.

Thinking about self care, I thknk I'll be keeping an eye on my stomach. I feel nauseous but not to the point of throwing up. I don't know whats causing his, maybe food poisoning or something??

Anyways, that's enough of me for now. Take care!!

Hey there @CentreMid *hugs* (if you are okay with it)

It is always really nice to hear from you around here! heart

I am dealing with a cold. Nothing too bad but fairly annoying and draining. Thank you for asking :)

I am sorry to hear that your stomach is sick as well. I hope you will get better soon. If there is anything we may be able to help you with, with whatever you may be getting through, we are always here for you :)

Oww...I am sorry to hear that you have had such a hard week. I remember that once I have decided - on my own - to go on a vacation as well leaving all of the things and people I like at home and it was just....awkward. I am sorry to hear that you have to deal with your family as well on top of that tho, I hope you will get home soon and be able to recharge a bit :)

I think it is a good way to practice self-care to just watch out to what your body is telling you and taking care of it. I do hope it is nothing too serious and your stomach will get well soon :)

Stay awesome! heart

@redmark Ah, well I hope you feel better soon too!

My stomach's feeling a little better now, but I'm still a little off.

As for the things I"m going through, thank you very much, I'm just dealing with some guilt (not going to get into details about what happened) but it's been on my mind a lot lately and it's starting to take away from my everyday activities. I'll definitely be dsicussing this with my counsellor.

Take care

@CentreMid I am really glad to hear that you are feeling better :)

Guilt can be really hard to deal with and I am sorry to hear that it is having such an effect on your life lately. I think it is a good idea to bring it up with your counsellor and see how you can work on that. In the meantime, if there is anything we may be able to help you with we are always here for you as well :)

Homework can be ovrwhelming and stressful at times. Make sure that you are taking enough breaks and do not push yourself too hard to do it and I know you can get it done, I believe in you. :)

I am sorry to hear about that test tho. I wonder if you can re-take it. When I was in high-school we always had the chance, at least at the end of the semester, to re-take at least one and some teachers even allowed a second try to every tests if you might have failed :)

Mindfullness sounds like a really nice way to take care of yourself in-between all the work you have to get done, good job praciticing it :)

Stay awesome! heart

Those days can certainly be tough. You are not alone in this tho, if there is anything we may be able to help you with we are always here for you and together we can get through this. I believe in it anyway and I believe in you. :)

I am really glad to hear that you have been able to spend such a nice time with your friend this week, it really sounds like a good week ^-^

Hey, making sure you stay hydrated and eat enough - or something at least - really sounds like a good way of self-care :)

Stay strong and awesome! heart

@redmark Hey How are you?

I like your cartoon.

Tired, no sleep for 2 days. This anxiety is just... wow. It's making it hard to function.

This week...has been a nightmare. Just another wow, ya know? Screwed up twice this week. Tried really hard not to but I failed. I'm having a hard time with wanting to isolate. Trust issues, another wow, the two people I thought I could trust, yeah..I'm an idiot. I should have known I guess, I mean why not. The whole lot of them is pretty well..no cussing. Doesn't matter anyway. It is what it is. I just need to accept what's true and do something about it. I don't want to but I guess someone has to and I'm the only someone who can.

Self care hasn't even been much of a thought this week. Self destruct is more like it.

2 songs - Nothing More- Ripping Me Apart and Funny Little Creature Thought I'd pass them to you now if you want them. If not that's cool too. That way I'm not taking up time. I know, I'm sorry..my head's just a little messed up. Didn't mean to bring it through the door.

Have a good weekend, take care

Hey there @mytwistedsoul *offering safe hugs* (just in case, no pressure)

It is always really nice to hear from you around here! heart

Well, it seems I have got a somewhat nasty cold soo it is a bit draining and annoying. Nothing really bad is going on tho, thank you for asking :)

I am glad you like the picture. I really love these sort of cute word play thingies ^-^ (I mean, it is the combination of cute things and word plays which are separately big favourites of mine, so, you know :P )

I am sorry to hear that you are having a hard time like that. Lack of sleep can definitely make things so much better. I hope that you will be able to catch up on a bit of sleep soon :)

You are not an idiot. At least I do not think you are at all...
Opening up to others is a really hard and scary thing to do and, sadly, you never really know what you will get out of it and that is why I am really proud of you, proud of you for being so strong and brave and still trying your best to reach out to people :)

I am sorry that you have had such a bad experience with that two people tho. I know it can be disheartening and just hard in general and just really stir up a lot of emotions and thoughts and, well, I do not think you have "failed". It is okay, I can tell you are trying really hard, even against such hard thoughts and feelings, I think you are doing a good job. After all, you are still here, with us right now. :)

I think it is a good way to look at things tho that you do have the power as well to change your life and do not have to always rely on others - although it is easier with support, no doubt about that - but I do really believe in you and I want you to know that, at least here, you are not alone in this :)

I suppose just coming here and sharing the way you feel can count as self-care as well. At least sometimes I know it can help me a lot. :)

I have actually listened to a few songs of Nothing More quite some times ago and, I think, you have shared an other one with me not so long ago as well. Either way, I do like the power that those songs have although, the vibe of them is...well, I guess matching what you have shared here, but still, I am sorry to hear that you are feeling like that :)

Also, you have nothing to be sorry for. That is why we are here to share how we are feeling and I am gald you have shared it with me. I mean, it is okay to say sorry, if you feel like it, I know that sort of pressure as well but, really, you are not bothering me :)

...as a sidenote, I thought I would share a song with you as well. Long story short, there is a Hungarian band, AWS, I really love but their lyrics are in Hungarian so I was not really able to share it before, but now they have released a few songs in English as well...sooo...now I can sahre them ^-^

>This one<, to be specific for now. I mean, the other one - My Beautiful Black Part - has a bit of a probably disturbing(?) videoclip.

Stay strong and awesome! heart

@redmark I'm sorry to hear you have a cold. I think spring colds are really hard. I hope you feel better soon.

Those 2 people? Were the grandparents. so...yeah. There's a lot stirred up.

I liked AWS. All ready added those songs to the playlist, plus X/O and got a few Katatonia songs. Thank you for sharing those.

Thank you, for your time, especially when you aren't feeling good.

Take care

Hiya!

How are you feeling today?

I'm not too bad, not good, not bad, just p average which can be a good thing

How has this week been for you?

Amazing! I had a trip overseas which was so fun, I did many exciting things and I saw a good movie last night. Mentally, not the greatest struggling with my relationship with food but I'm working on it

Have you got to practice any self-care lately? Do you maybe have something planned?

I've tried to take time out to read for leisure more and to make myself do little things so I'm getting out of my house

@redmark I Had a great day! ❤ I sold soap with my aunt and spent time with my cousin. I went to my brothers soccer game and after that my family went to a Chinese buffet with my aunt and cousin. I played trivia with my dad and watched cartoons with my little brother. Despite the bad cramps I felt great today!
