Good luck <3

May I get a pm please? Someone preferably who is lgbtq+ supportive and can carry on a conversation about sexualities and such.

I don't even know what it is. I'm just in a really poor mood today. I can't seem to just be happy...
I don't know why. Maybe it waseems because my mom spent all morning before I left to drive to school picking every possible fight. Maybe it's because we have a huge marching band trip around the globe in a few months and my close friend who I am planning to room with and am in a tour group with is considering not going, and we'll she'llc have to have made her decision by now, and I don't even want to to ask what choice she made or when she has to decide by because quote honestly of don't want to know the answer as if she decides not to go, I'll be alone. Mate it's because I'm stressed about classes and my bad knee has been really hurting for a few days now. Maybe it's because my brother was a completely sexist jerk to me last night and it hurts to know that a member of my family holds those opinions and is willing to vocalize them. Maybe it's because my car might be having problems.
I don't really know why, but I just feel so horrible about everything this morning...I just don't know what to do to make myself feel better either...
If anyone has any advice on how to just be happy I could really really use it today because I can't do it.

School has been giving me so much anxiety.

it's okay to feel that way
is there a school counselor? maybe you can go speak to them
about how you are feeling, or a trusted teacher.
speak to your guardian about it, too. they might be able to
help you out c:
good luck <3

My disease is acting up and I am just going to have to sit it through this time.

aghhh
whatever the disease is, good luck
i hope you feel better soon and i'm here
if you need someone to talk to <3

My hamster David passed away in his sleep last night.
I've been crying all day. He wasn't sick, just elderly. He was really old for a hamster. He died while he was asleep, so he didn't experience any pain or behavioral changes beforehand. My other hamster is fine, but I'm sure he's feeling the loss of our dear little friend.
Today is a very sad day.

i am so sorry and r.i.p to David,
maybe throw him a little funeral.
it might help take the pain off.
good luck, okay? take it easy. <3

The smallest most insignificant things can make me so amazingly happy that I start to cry. But... other very small insignificant things can also make me feel like I've sunk into the deepest darkest hole you could imagine.

When I try to rationalize my way out of feeling awful about little things by saying "oh no it's insignificant," I start feeling worse because if that's true, then what if the small things that make me really happy are insignificant, too? It sounds kind of odd, but it really means a lot to me.

I can feel like I'm floating on clouds of happiness and love but then five minutes later I feel weighed down by all the garbage in the world. I dunno... I could use a digital hug.

it's okay for our emotions and feelings to be like this,
it's completely normal and you're not alone in this large but yet also small world
your happiness is not insignificant, in fact your happiness is
the most important thing. i hope you experience that more than the negative
feelings.
good luck <3

I got a terrible score on my SMI
I know it seems silly, but i'm doing so well in math,
and all my career ideas, rest on me doing well in math and getting in the AP life science classes
I can't afford another math class.
The teacher said it wasn't really a big deal,
but I'm going down on both my SMI and SRI.
I feel like....trash. Math Treash.

you're not trash!
maybe it was an off point
i'm sure you'll do better next time,
just take a deep breath and work through problems slowly!
good luck <3

pls for the love of god can i just have ONE night of sleep just one
im so tired all the time
ive tried everything - literally
this is what... four years of this now?
ridiculous

have you tried listening to ASMR?
it's great, and even if it doesn't get you to sleep it might
help relax you more and you might drop off (slowly, but you'll drop off).
good luck <3

I am so done with school. I feel like the stress has broken me. And I still have several hours of homework tonight and I'm exhausted because I didn't get a lot of sleep last night because it took me ages to fall asleep because of stress. I'm in 5 college level classes and I'm not even in college yet and my coping mechanism with stress is rapidly becoming avoiding it/not doing assignments and I just don't want to do this anymore... help

take your time!
make a schedule
an hour per piece of homework
take 25 minute breaks in between
reward yourself every step of the way!
maybe take it down a notch and relax and have some
you time.
i hope you do well,
and good luck! <3

I just need a friend right now. Or even better, a relationship.
I would like it if any of you had time to come chat with me tonight ;u;

of course i can <3

my anxiety/stress levels are quite high lately. going back after all what's happened (all good things) has made it so much harder to go back to school. i haven't gone a day without either trying not to cry, or crying. tonight i spent almost five hours working on a project due next week, and it just stressed me out so much more. this weekend i have some nice things planned out, so hopefully i'll be stress free and happy. but in the meantime i have to last one last day, which may be slightly stressful, at least i have a scrapbooking class for the last hour. but i'm just really depressed atm because after all the company left, everyone's back to work, and all the festivity is gone, everything feels so empty and life feels so pointless. school is just causing a lot of stress on me and i know it will be great for future education, but at the moment i really want to go back to two years ago, when i missed a month of school because my dad was in an accident (and i know this is bad but read further), me and my mom never argued once, except this one time where we had a tiny argument about something lost, but back then it was christmas, we were quiet, friendly, calm, y'know i wish things were like that, just not my dad in the hospital (he's perfectly okay now, he was one of two in every 100 people to survive his injury!) i hate having to be stressed out about school, my parents' thoughts, my friends, etc. etc. i've gotten better since monday, i pretty much cried all day at school, it was really stressful. today i cried three times, once because of stress, once because of happiness (my mom told me something about my birthday, it wasn't much but i was really emotional so) and once because i had an argument five minutes after that. i wish i could just go one day feeling happy

sorry for the long vent/rant
just wanted to get some things out

woah. five hours? for next week?
you should have made it an hour a day!
i'm sure it looks great though!
life is not so pointless, and as for all the stress and anger
going on through the house, maybe talk to everyone about how you feel
and how it's making you feel bad.
it's okay to cry btw, letting it all out
can help you. bottling in emotions are bad.
i hope you're doing okay, my inbox is always open
and good luck <3

....when you're there for everyone .. busy .. tired .. or not .. but no one can ever return the 'favor'

tell whoever that person is how you feel
it's not fair for them to expect stuff from you and not return it
treat yourself once in a while, you don't need to help everyone
all the time c:
good luck <3

i hope you're doing okay
right now.
tell your mum to cut it out a bit,
and take it easy with your knee. it's best for
it to heal, and stress won't help you out.
tell your brother to open his eyes and say the world doesn't revolve
around one sexuality, gender, etc.
it's okay to feel upset,
try to do stuff you enjoy.
maybe read a book, or eat ice cream and don't feel guilty about it.
good luck <3

Grrrrr

I just can't get a break can i

yes you can : D
try not to give so much, you are able to take.
stick up for yourself, no one knows how you feel
until you tell them.
good luck <3

I've been making study guides and preparing for the whole week I go into bed at twelve but go to sleep from four to two am when my school starts at six. I'm so sleep deprived because of my anxiety sand when I wake up about an hour before I have to go at five third my dog will wake me up I just feel so horrible

try and sleep earlier
sleep helps you study and get better grades on the exams
i hope you're doing okay
good luck! <3

I am nervous about this English paper. Dang, Beloved is such a depressing book.

sigh

I'm not an expert on feelings, but I'm pretty sure that this isnt right


it's just that, every time I talk to someone, in real life or CS, every time I try to start a conversation, I just feel like no one actually wants to talk to me. Like, they just pretend to be interested in what I'm saying, and I can't help but feel paranoid that I'm just annoying them, and they don't like me at all. I don't know why, even when they say that they are genuinely glad of my presence, I just can't bring myself to believe that they are saying the truth. 
I just feel like even my closest friend might only talk to me because of pity, or because I spoke to them first. Honestly, I'm scared that every single one of my friends will leave me at one point, mostly scared that my one real friend on here will leave as well.

Lately I've been busy and not able to talk as much, so have they, but I talk whenever I can, but something just isn't the same as it was before.
Like, before we where both so busy, we always always used to say good night to eachother when we left for bed, every night without fail, but now, I've noticed that we don't do that anymore. And those little heart symbols that we sometimes use (these: <3), they aren't used as often.
I know those are just tiny little things that most people wouldn't think twice about, but, I'm really sensitive to all these little details, especially when it's with someone I've come to trust with my life. 

sorry for the little vent, and sorry for taking up room with my stupid problem, I just needed to get this out somewhere.
