right now I am....

Right now I am... Anxious about a job interveiw. Describe yourself right now in a few words. It can be good or not so good. Might be a good way of sort of seeing that we aren't alone. I dont know... thought it might be a good idea or something.

@j95 Sorry to hear you're having a bit of a rough night, mate. Like @benjamin_ said, you're definitely not stupid for having these kinds of thoughts. We all have negative thoughts about ourselves from time to time. Sometimes it helps to talk them out with a friend or family member if you feel comfortable doing so. And remember the RO crew is always here to chat!

@j95 sorry to hear dude. I gotta say it though - you aren't stupid for having those thoughts and thinking that way. I know that it can be really tough to battle the crappy thoughts that seem to come out of nowhere and escalate, but I also know that you're a super strong and resilient guy so try to hang in there. 

 

Is there anything you can do tonight that might make you feel a bit better? Or perhaps plan anything for tomorrow?

@j95 thanks. I'm just having a rough time atm. Feeling so pathetic and worthless. I don't even know why.
The phone call to the mental health team was pretty useless, they just said distract myself until I go to bed. I was already doing that..sigh...oh well, I did the right thing by calling instead of self harming.

@redheadYou can definite get past this! Whenever I feel low (which is often) I either listen to stand up comedy, listening to people laughing helps my mood a lot! or just do something that makes me too exhausted to think. If all things fails... watch youtube puppies! haha Anyways, hope you will wake up to a brighter day!

sorry to hear things are so rough for you atm @redhead

 

You should be proud of yourself for reaching out to them instead of self-harming, although it does suck that it didn't feel very helpful for you. Do you think there's anything you can do that might make help get you through tonight, or anyone else you can speak to?

 

Hope you're doing okay, stay strong.

You definitely did the right thing by calling the mental health team @redhead! You should be proud of the strength you've shown by calling them and not self harming. You're such a valued member of RO and you've helped so many other members when they've been having rough times, so you're in now way pathetic or worthless!

 

Have you gone through your survival kit and tried some of the things/activities that make you feel good and safe? Maybe painting or playing some xbox?

@hartley_ watch out for the smell in Berlin, it was built on a swamp 😄
Paris is also lovely, and in Brussels the waffles are a MUST! (No joke, you must have a waffle there. They are pretty cheap too and you can have ice cream added on top and everything!)

OH!!! Before I forget, in Amsterdam series, Dutch Syrup Waffles. You can get them in the supermarket and they are the BEST! The absolute best! Syrupy, waffley goodness. The flower market there is also very nice, and if you like the Fault of Our Stars there's a bench. I've only been to Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin and Brussels though.

Hopefully I haven't missed anything, but watch out for the crowds in Paris (especially in the more touristy areas). What are you seeing there? (Since there is so much! I spent two days there and didn't see everything).

I hope you enjoy yourself! It's SO worth it 😄

I am waiting out the front of a friends place. "I'm ready" 5 minutes later "I'll be ready soon sorry" an eternity later "sorry you can come in if you want" oh that usually means I'm not dressed yet... Gonna be a long wait.

@lovin each day @N1ghtW1ng the cynical part of me reckons those videos are all staged. I've seen a couple of funny ones nonetheless.

Right now I'm trying to work out what to do with my day. Studying? Shopping? Watching TV? So many decisions!
