Starting a new part-time job tomorrow. Excited to wear my new smart clothes and get back into paid work but also scared that I don't have the brain capacity for it haha.. not that it's overly complex, just that I'm a overly thick :p

^ Congrats on the job, Twig! Good luck! :)


I'm feeling really good right now. I don't know why, but I'm definitely enjoying it while it lasts. :) I also feel more energetic than I have in the last week. Kinda sucks that I have the energy now when I should be getting ready to go to bed soon.

Start of the new month has not gone to plan for 3 reasons so far:

1. This morning I had to go to the doctor to get a referral so I can keep getting discounted therapy sessions. The doctor asked me intrusive questions like, "do you feel hopeless?" and "are you tired for no reason?" and so on. He had to do it for an evaluation. It was an anxiety-filled 20 minutes, but the referral is now done and I can go back to therapy for less money...for the next 5 visits. Just talking to this doctor about me was very uncomfortable.

2. About 20 minutes ago, someone pressed the door bell...and I didn't answer. I'm the only one home now and I just decided I was not going to answer it, purely out of nervousness. What the hell? ::(:

3. Phoenixx beat me in Words With Friends. Okay, it was close, but I still lost. ::p: I'm keen for a rematch.

On the plus side, I'm feeling much better today than I have been since Thursday. I don't know why, really, but maybe the effects of that horrible day are subsiding. I'm still constantly depressed, though, which is not nice.

^ We can do a rematch tomorrow, if you're up for it. ::p:

The effects after a horrible day always last pretty long for me too, and it only adds to the anxiety. Glad to hear you're feeling better today though. Hope you start seeing even better days soon.

I'm sorry you had to go through that. I would have ran out of the room screaming if someone asked me those questions. It's good it's over though and you can go back to getting help. I would of done the same thing in the door bell situation, so don't feel bad.:)

I wish I could help you stop being depressed, Mikey.:)
If there's anything I can do to help, I would be more then happy to do it.

Whenever someone knocks on my door I run into the other room and hide. I don't know why I am so afraid to answer the door. I think it's fairly common thing for folks around here to do, don't beat yourself up for it.

It's about time you lost at a Scrabble type game! Maybe losing brightens your day? If so, we should play some more and I can help make your day really great :p

Crap ::(:. Going to hospital, I wish I was back already with good results.

I hope everything is okay! ::(:

I'm getting a serious case of cabin fever. Tomorrow I have GOT to get outside and do something other than walk my dog. It's making me jittery and grumpy. (Those are two of the dwarfs, right?)

Thanks for asking, it´s just a knee - arthroscopy. Sounds like not a serious surgery. I hope it will be OK :).

I survived this and the outcome is ok in that I dont have to look for work this year. It was really difficult, and at one stage I asked a question that was met with everyone laughing at me ::eek:: I coped with it ok, so I'm proud of that. I'm going to adopt different approaches to things at work this year to see if I can level out the anxiety and other feelings I get there. I want to enjoy life this year

I was wondering how everything went! Glad to hear that it went ok, despite being laughed at. Must be a huge relief to have that out of the way! Now you can sleep tonight and start working on your goals tomorrow! :)

Tomorrow is my first day at university working toward a social working degree. I have four long years of study ahead of me. I have already worked on my sociology and social science papers to get this far.

I hope I have made the right decision... if it means I will be granted the ability to help people who need it the most, then I am sure it will be worth it and it will satiate the emptiness I feel inside myself.

Even if no one else believes in me, I still believe in what I do is right.

Sorry to be all heavy and dramatic.

Absolutely keen for a rematch. :)

This one lasted a long time. Still ongoing, actually. Thursday was such a terrible day and I wish I could just let it go like others. I hope so, too. Thanks heaps, Phoenixx.

I wanted to walk out, too, but I had to answer them and he told me at the start there were only 10 questions so I knew it wouldn't take too long. It was still crap, though. Thanks, Shyangel, but being my friend is more than enough. This depression is so bad that I think I need a priest around here, haha.

Wow, you do that, too? I wonder why. Maybe we think it's a murderer, or Jehovah's Witnesses? Either way it sucks. If I can see outside the window and I know who's coming, I might answer the door. Salesmen, no way. Postman, no problem.

Hmm, losing doesn't brighten my day, haha. I'm always up for more games when you are. I have a streak to lengthen!

Go ShyKiwi! This came out of the blue, unless I've missed some posts. This is really great, mate, and I hope you get everything you want out of University.

Hey, I'm 25 and I'm over all that, too. (Never touched weed in my life, either.)

Goodnight, ShyKiwi. Have a wonderful sleep. :)
