❀How are you things going in your life this week? How are you physically?
I am on new blood pressure pills so I can changeover my adhd meds the last ones really increased my blood pressure and at 32 that's not good...been quite lethargic physically taking allot of naps, trying to pause time and get all my work done(by not doing it...)
Mentally?❀
I'm doing good feel quite positive, not much has changed but just more grateful and praying more often
❀ It’s the night before exams do you stay up late to study or sleep?❀
see question 1😂
❀ What is your favorite candy?❀
Snickers It just feels like it's really nutritous and filling(lies...)
Best regards to you all.
love this community!
@YesYouMatter
hey matter! Thanks for joining our checkin this week! It’s lovely seeing you, I’m sorry to hear your struggling with the side effects of your changing meds. It’s so hard to get them all right with minum symptoms. I hope that you gain some energy soon! Haha it’s okie to take breaks and rest. You come first and sometimes work comes second. Hopefully you can catch up on things later if your feeling better. I have never tried that candy before 😮 I hope that you have an amazing week ahead!
❀How are you things going in your life this week? How are you physically? Mentally?❀
I had a GI (gastrointestinal) biology exam. My grade was a bit lower than I wanted but I'm trying to practice more self-compassion around that. I have a bit of a break before the next one but it feels like now I have to catch up on other classes and coordinate my summer plans. Trying to at least take a little time for myself.
❀ It’s the night before exams do you stay up late to study or sleep?❀
I absolutely stay up late lol. Maybe I will get to a place one day with testing anxiety where I sleep at a good time. We dream lol
❀ What is your favorite candy?❀
Guava candy sounds amazing. I like so many kinds. Does candy apples count cuz I love them. They sell them at the grocery store. They are expensive but I treat myself sometimes. :)
@Daydreamer47 Also, one of my goals was to go to a NAMI (mental health) support group and I went today. It was supportive but feel kind of emotionally flooded. It was also a big group which felt overwhelming. I may try a different one next time.
I’m so glad you got to go to a support group. I know you have been looking for some support. I can totally understand how overwhelming it can be when it is a huge group of people. Definitely can be emotionally draining! I hope the next meeting fits your needs better and is less crowed!
@Daydreamer47
hey hey dream! Thanks for joining our checkin again this week! It’s lovely to see you as always💜 I’m sorry to hear that your grade was not as high as you would have liked to have been. I know that it can be discouraging. But you did you best you and that is what counts. Keep working on the self compassion I know it can be hard but there is no use in beating yourself up about the past. You just got to reflect and then put it behind you. I’m sure you will do amazing on the next one! You definitely deserve a break and some self care, school and life only get harder when you are burnt out drained and mentally no good. I hope you get some time to yourself and time to relax this week, while you work to catch up on things.
Aw yeah I can totally relate to the anxiety and lack of sleep before and around exams, they are so stressful!
Candy apples!!! 😋 they definitely count!
I hope that you have an amazing week ahead dream, always here for you🌸

( Copying flowers, again 😅)
❀How are you things going in your life this week? How are you physically? Mentally?❀
It was eventful. Got to learn a lot from life . I have been feeling neutral.
❀ It’s the night before exams do you stay up late to study or sleep?❀
I would rather sleep
❀ What is your favorite candy?❀
Manguuu
@Emerbliss I love mango :)
🔆@Daydreamer47🔆
* Share Mango cream pie 🥧*
@Emerbliss
yayayya mangooos those are one of my favorite too! Thanks for joining our checkin again this week! It’s always so nice to see you, I think that is a great mindset to have. Being open minded to what the world has to teach and approaching situations with a calm mindset! I hope you have an amazing week ahead!
@FaithfulZareia, yuppies , mangoes are one of the best parts of summer. Thank *you* for posting such a thoughtful check in inspite of being on a tight schedule .
thanks for another amazing check-in <3
❀How are you things going in your life this week? How are you physically? Mentally?❀
good! just a lot on so very tiring 😴
❀ It’s the night before exams do you stay up late to study or sleep?❀
definitely procrastinate then stay up late and fall asleep with the goal to wake up super early to study...
❀ What is your favorite candy?❀
any type of gummy sweet!
@tommy I can relate lol. I have exams at 9am, and I am like I'll wake up at 8 but end up waking up at 8:30 lol but I feel like sometimes I need that extra snooze time because my body is so tired and it's ok to not push myself so hard.
@tommy
hey tommy! Hope you get some rest this week and time for self care!
I like waking up early too to get a final study session in📚

❀How are you things going in your life this week? How are you physically? Mentally?❀
I just graduated with a bachelor's degree on Saturday. I am physically ok, but sick with a fever and body aches. I should be better soon.
❀ It’s the night before exams do you stay up late to study or sleep?❀
Sleep! It's never a good idea to study at the last minute, and it's impossible to remember everything in a short time. I studied a few days before the exam.
❀ What is your favorite candy?❀

@SparklyCat Wow congrats on your degree! Definitely take some time to rest and recover. :)
