Once again attempting to slowly make it back on :) If you could control any element, what would it be? Oh gosh, I really need to watch Avatar: The Last Airbender again! If I could choose just one, I guess it'd be airbending. There's something nice about the idea of not really being tethered to the ground haha. Although that is just flight I guess lol. == What is your favourite snack? Excellent, I love this question. Only figured it out last year and it's extremely specific and weird. Seaweed crackers and avocado dip (w/o the cream cheese in it). Weird, right? Totally awesome, right? == What are you going to do during your holidays (if you have any this month)? Uni work as usual. Plenty to do and so little time! == What gets you motivated? I'm still figuring that out :P == What's your favourite song to dance and sing to? ANYTHING. I don't know how to describe it but I really just enjoy music in general haha

I've tried face to face so far @Bee. I texted them yesterday and they haven't gotten back to me yet. They could honestly be busy as far as I know so I won't assume anything right now. As of now, I'm still clinging on that chance that things might be fixed but that could be biased on my end only because I thought we got along quite well at the beginning. This, I'd have to say, would be my final go at it before giving up. That's the tricky bit @letitgo! There's very few people who can do the times which I'm doing and I think people are starting to notice my changing behaviour. I actually did try asking some mutual friends but they don't know much either. I don't know how I'm going to create more distance so that I can get over this when the time comes, short of constantly cancelling my shifts altogether every single time I have to work with them. From what I've observed though, their behaviour towards anyone else hasn't changed at all, just with me unfortunately. For all I know, I could be wrong and this might be a huge overreaction but the lack of communication makes it truly hard to actually tell what actually happened and I'd prefer not to burn the bridge haphazardly since I believe everyone deserves a chance to explain and be heard. I really do appreciate the support right now, so thanks :)

Hey folks, I haven't been on for a while since I've been dealing with a whole lot of issues all of a sudden, so sorry about that. I do want to share one of them with you all though because it might be hurting me quite a bit. So there's someone at work who I got along really well with at the beginning about 4 months back and I really did enjoyed talking and hanging out with them until the start of April where it suddenly felt like it dropped off almost entirely. Since then, we've barely talked to each other and I've tried to contact them to chat about it but they were really defensive about it and I feel like it just made things worse. At this point, I'm getting a bit concerned that it's turning into a toxic friendship (not sure if I can call it a friendship anymore). I've tried giving them the benefit of the doubt several times as well, that maybe they had a bad day or that they're going through something of their own but it's happened so many times and so consistently that I'm not sure if I should still be doing this anymore. I will admit that I may have done something to upset them but I'm not even sure what it could have been, despite racking my brain for ages. I'm honestly not sure which path I should be going right now, especially since I still have to be working with them at least once a week. One thing I have learnt from here is that I do need a backup plan. If things do start feeling worse than they do now or affecting me in a larger way, I'll book another appointment with a counsellor. Right now, it just feels like it's in that weird grey area and it could go either way. I would absolutely love some advice, so thank you so much in advance! :)

Slowly making my way back on the forums so there's no better place to start than here. Going through a bit of a big change at the moment so bear with me! Excited to see more of you all around :) 1. What's your favourite way to relax as the weather gets colder? Hiding under the bed covers. Easy :) 2. Which song do you have on repeat right now? Cold Blood - Dave Not Dave 3. Should cereal be classed as a soup? Why/why not? Haha, I've never thought about it! I'd have to say no only because I thought soups were always cooked. Unless I'm missing something? 4. British or American comedy? American. I don't know why but there's something off with the British accent for comedy 5. What's one thing you're looking forward to this month? Going to visit my friend interstate soon!

Have you tried rolling your clothes @j95? I always do it during trips and it takes up less room than folding it

As far as I know @j95, it might cost extra to bring a skateboard in check-in but sometimes it gets classed as a separate baggage under "oversized" through the carousel. Since it's a domestic flight, a skateboard might be allowed as carry-on but I'd recommend calling the flight company to see if they're ok with it. There's always that risk though. I've bought a tennis racquet in my carry on before because I said it was for a sport and I called ahead of time to make sure because I paid $200 for it and I wasn't going to lose it. Not sure if I'm going to bring it on a flight again though, I can't afford losing it. If you have a board bag, maybe use that? And check it in under fragile so they don't scratch it and all.

That's cool @FootyFan26. I always have to talk to my aunts to translate to my grandparents since they don't know english so you learning to speak to them in their native tongue is heart-warming :) (Btw, try a nutella and banana sandwich. I love that combination to pieces :)) Are you still eligible for graduate positions @Bee? I know a friend who is pretty much aiming to do the same thing as you and they recently just got a graduate position in Sydney doing that. Apparently there were only 18 people who applied! On a side note, I think we're gonna need a GR on food sometime :)

Look at you @FootyFan26. You've got awesome goals for this year! Learning languages is tough so I commend you on that :) Is there any reason you want to learn more? What areas in jobs are you looking for @Bee? Anything in particular you're looking for right now? Long-term, short-term, contracts?

Oh wow, it really must've been a small town @j95. That's the exact same burger place we went to and I remember that the bakery was really packed as well. Huuge line for bread. Let's dial it back to goals then, shall we? Following on what @scared01 asked, What are you going to continue on with this year? I'm still continuing with uni and hoping to get back into form with tennis :)

Yeah, haven't had zucchini chips. Haven't seen them on menus @j95. Actually, yes, I've been to Queenstown before and they did have aawwweeesssooommmeeee burgers. I kinda want to go to NY and try some there because apparently they're everywhere so competition becomes fierce.

There's land surfing @j95 ;) Maybe there's techniques which overlap and it would be great to see people surfing on land haha. Waaahhh? They have zucchini chips? I gotta try some then but I didn't remember them having it on the menu where I am. We have a place called Grease Monkey here and apparently they do aMaZiNg burgers but I haven't had the chance to try it yet because I only recently found out they did burgers and not tyres :P Yeah I didn't know either for a while @missep. I honestly thought Burger King was just a better place because it was in America. It somehow didn't click for ages.

I go for burgers in small hidden places because they do them so well for some reason @missep. Out of the places with franchises, I've enjoyed Grilld and the easier-to-access after work Hungry Jacks whopper, just when I finish work at midnight and nowhere else is open.

Hopefully it's an awesome trip @j95! Maybe you'll find out that they happen to be awesome surfers and/or skaters too ;) Whaaattt @missep? Burgers are awesomeeeee. I only have them once a month though so that totally counts as healthy, right? :) Maybe that should be our goal @FootyFan26! Getting in shape for our sports again!

Pre-made workout calendars sound like a great idea @FootyFan26. I reckon I might steal that idea from you ;) What would you say eating healthy would look like at the end of the year that you'll be able to say it was successful? Daily healthy snacks at a specific time instead of random snacks? (I know I won't be able to achieve that haha) That sounds like awesome goals @j95. Would you say this plan that you made with Ben before would still be helpful? And I absolutely love that you want to be a supportive role model for your siblings, that's awesome! This upcoming trip for you must be exciting!

That sucks to hear that sickness stopped you from playing @FootyFan26. Hopefully it'll feel good to be back on the field again and that you're not too rusty! Yep, any chance I get I watch tennis when it comes on the tv. I get way too excited on it sometimes haha. M&M ice-creams sound amazing. I haven't eaten dinner yet so even more so :P I get that too sometimes with goals. In a rush to complete goals and then sometimes I just change them on the fly to make it bigger. What type of goals have you tried before?

That's true too @j95. I think having resolutions places too much pressure on achieving it because they're not as specific and if they're not achieved, it might make them feel like they wasted a whole year. Feel like sharing some of your goals?

Hey folks! Sorry the GR post has come up late, a lot of us have been still stuck in holiday mode at the moment and planning has gone a little awry with less people. Nevertheless, here's the first one of the year! Since there is a few people around and things haven't been drafted up yet, instead of questions, we can just use this space to have a casual chat about any new year's resolutions and basically your goals for 2018. So, let's get this started with the one and only question: What's your new years resolution? :)

It sounds like you're trying to find a balance somewhere between finding the strength to do things but also keeping the anxiety at a manageable level, am I correct @mspaceK? (Feel free to correct me if I got it wrong) Would you say that it feels like these things are connected in a circle right now, where changing the amount of work done affects the anxiety levels?

That sounds like it could be a headache @DruidChild, having two seemingly opposite feelings. When you get these scary feelings, how are you able to get through them? Could you explain a bit more about religion being a trigger due to OCD as a kid? I'm guessing from this that you don't have as much OCD as before? (The thread should be fine for now :) I'd also be interested in other's input too)

Hey @pegasus123, Just in case I've got it wrong, it sounds like you're feeling a bit unsure about whether to end the relationship or not, am I right? Have you got anyone around who you could ask for advice about this? I also agree with @N1ghtW1ng's idea. It could be a good idea to plan it out and make an informed decision based on the choices you have before acting. What would you think about having a backup plan in case things don't work out as planned?

Hey @Crumpet, In regards to ReachOut, there's a link here to a Getting Real session (basically a live chat at the time) where we discussed motivation and goals so feel free to read through it. You've started your own thread so congrats on doing so. We've also got fact sheets on motivation and goals here (tips for getting motivated), here (setting goals) and here (10 specific ways to get stuff done). Sorry if it feels like I'm throwing too much information at you! For other forums, Beyondblue and their youth forum Youth Beyondblue are there as forums and perhaps eheadspace if you're looking for some personal, more spoken support. Hope at least something there helps you! There'll probably be more people who'll post here with more motivational tips, especially from past experience. One tip I personally like and use on avoiding procrastination is keeping personal and work environments separate. For example, studying in the same room as your bed probably wouldn't be as conducive as studying in the library and playing games in the bedroom. Less things to be distracted by when they're kept separate.

Oh @mspaceK! When did you move houses? There was that time when you were planning to move and saving money as well so that's a huge accomplishment having moved houses! (I was on holiday for a bit so I might've missed a bit of news) It's good to hear that you've been giving yourself space to relax and distract yourself so well done! Being unsure isn't necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes you look at other people who seem to have their life planned out and you compare yourself to them and wonder what you're doing wrong but I reckon it's good to be a bit unsure. It just means that you're learning from these experiences, even if it doesn't feel like you are. Have you thought about adding something in your morning routine to help you get up and go? I hear they've got an alarm clock that bounces and runs away to make you get out of bed and it's exhilarating having to chase and look for it every time. That might be a weird and silly example but perhaps you could find something like that to help you. Maybe even putting an alarm in a different room so you absolutely have to get out of bed to turn it off? Have you got any suggestions?

Beatles concert @Cookiestarr? And Wizard of Oz? It sounds like you're still on holiday :) There is one thing I've always wondered with Paris: Is the Eiffel Tower actually extremely extremely packed with tourists? And I've heard the rumour that they can speak english but they choose not to, even when people talk to them in english. Is that true?

That's actually an interesting thought @DruidChild. Correct me if I get this wrong: an otherkin is a non-human soul in human form and in that subset is an angelkin who embodies everything an angel is like except just in human form? You say you've had good safe things like sensory experiences and scary ones as well, right? When do you get these feelings of scary things happening? Is there a specific moment? (Btw, this might start to tip over into the "tough times" thread because it's starting to get a little heavy. Is it ok with you if I shift the topic over there if it gets heavier? Perhaps we might be able to get a better audience with people who might have this feeling too. It's totally up to you, no pressure :))
