Hello everyone!!!

I am rolling in as the weekend is coming to an end and see how you are all doing? Has the weekend been kind to you? What have you been up to?

What do you like the most about the weekend? Is it easier to stay calm and focused or you rather like to stay busy throughout the week?

@GodOnlyKnows51 Big congratulations on your milestone, I hope you got to celebrate it! I'm sorry to hear about the stressful time you're having, but I'm glad you're taking time to do some self-care to recharge your batteries and look after yourself!

@Amy

Every day is identical so the weekend is meaningless

@Madaraismyspiritanimal Aw, any particular reason every day is identical for you? It's okay, though, for me weekends don't differ from other days either.

@Amy

Just don't have much going on, technically I have different things during the week, but they feel pretty repetitive as well

Kinda the same therapy session over and over

The worst about it, is I have little to no drive or know how to change it

Like a lyric from a song I like; ... life, this endless dead end ... , feels very applicable right now. Just like rowing with one peddle, going in circles. Hearing left and right how wonderful life supposedly is

@Madaraismyspiritanimal

We tend to get into a routine and things start to feel repetitive and we start to lose motivation or see any excitement in life, I can totally understand. Anything you can think of that could help change things around a little or some goals you want to work on?

@Amy

I can think of things but I don't want to do them alone and have no-one to do them with. A long term goal I have is to get more social contacts but it's hard to go from nothing to something, cause I'm scared, not knowing what to do or say and it makes me feel like and idiot all the time

So I stay in my little bubble where it's boring and frustrating, but also familiar and safe

how am i doing? Crap I've not felt this bad in long time it sucks.

Has the weekend been kind to you? no I've SH far to much I've killed my sleep pattern and my eating

What have you been up to? Trying to survive first week of uni it's not going well.

What do you like the most about the weekend? I don't have to see anyone I can hide in my self misery.

Is it easier to stay calm and focused or you rather like to stay busy throughout the week? I like bissy less time to do stupid shit to myself

Hi there,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having a hard time and i agree it sucks but remember that allthough things may seem dark at the moment, brighter times can come too ! You seemed to have had a rough weekend ... After I SH, I try to squeeze in some self-care afterwards. It always starts by small steps. For you it could by starting by eating something that you like or taking a nap.

First week of uni sounds like a challenge, keep hanging on in there. I'll send positive thoughts your way !

Good luck,

Siz.

@Amy

I love having time to catch up on rest, self-care, and homework on the weekend. I find it easier to focus during the week though.
