I take my drivers test first thing in the morning and I'm so excited yet extremely nervous. I know all the things I have to do to pass but I'm so horrible under pressure. I know I can do it I just don't know if I will. I'll be so shaky from nerves no oh god. I could cry. I can't even sleep right now. I'm so nervous.

[diana,]

holy crap.
there were bomb threats at my school and we were evacuated and im freaking terrified right now

[frankie (dup)]

Oh boy

I was hoping that a new month would mean starting fresh, aiming for a better school year and then...

There are two new schools to accommodate the population and I'm moving to a new school next year and I was starting to like my school and I was making new friends and now we're all just being kicked out of our schools and I'm scared that I'll never see some friends or aquantinces ever again. I have few enough friends as it is and I don't want to go back to square one!
I just need a hug.

[onion]

i cant help but feel jealous seeing players that joined after me that have so mant list pets/old pets/high demand pets... i have quantity but not a lot of quality to trade for things. its really hard. i know its just a game but it does get me really down..

[neli]

i hate the fact I get panic attacks over LITERALLY nothing.

Like what the heck?!
It frustrates me, then I feel like crying but at the same time I feel weak as if I cry, and then I get angry at myself and I can't help it and I have no idea how to fix me because I'm such a horrid piece of.. Grr.

[onion]

lmao im a freaking jerk i cant believe myself im so disgusting im going back to freaking bed

[Thalassic]

I passed out at school, twice.
It was so much scarier than just blacking out
I'm not okay
I wonder if anyone cared if they saw me
I mean, no one cares that I haven't smiled all day and barely spoke
why would they
I could die and no one would even notice
I still feel so weak and all I want to do is sleep, and any time I stand even for a short while I get all dizzy and sick feeling.. and I just want to sleep but then I'll just fall behind on my homework even more..
but hey, what else can you expect when officially you're meant to do 35 hours of homework/individual work per week, on top of actual lessons.. it's more than a full time job and my parents make fun of me always being tired. Just now I came home early because some of the lessons ended early, and my dad joked about me being kicked out..
I'm so done
I dont want to exist anymore it's too painful, too hard
too tired, too weak, too pathetic

[caf.]

hey, all
lemme know if this isn't allowed!
i'm afraid i can't really comfort anyone individually right now (i'm really bad with words), but i've found something that might help a few of you out.
i haven't been posting much here lately because my depression has gotten much, much worse, but i happened to stumble across an app called Vent. i'm not sure if it's available on android, but it is open for iphone users. it's very neat; you choose an emotion and type out what you're feeling, and other users can 'HUG' your vent (or support you with similar buttons) or comment. the community is surprisingly supportive and accepting, and it's really nice to let things out. i will warn everyone that there is a lot of non-child-appropriate content (swearing, nsfw, suicide/self-harm, etc.) if you're not careful where you browse, but many users will tag these things if you ask them. i certainly don't recommend you join if you're under 13, but if you need a place to vent out the heavy stuff Vent is a really good option.
tl;dr, Vent is a really neat app for people who need to let out their feelings and be comforted by a loving user base.
(i'm not gonna give out my Vent name here because i post a lot of really bad stuff and swear a lot, but i can give it out over PM if you really want to know)

but lemme get off my soapbox. i know that if you're here you're probably having a pretty terrible day, but that's okay. it's okay to get down sometimes, everyone does. just be sure you treat yourself every now and again; it's a lot of work to fake a smile, and sometimes you've gotta let it all out. cry, yell, punch a pillow, scribble, write, get all those feelings out into the world where they need to be. i'm proud of all of you for holding on this long, and you deserve to be happy, but also to express yourself wholly and truly. you are amazing - yes, you. i sincerely hope things look up for you.

[fika.]

hello all,
i will begin to reply now.
it may take twenty minutes because i have other things to do,
but i will reply to the last few pages!
hold on tight <3

[fika.]

I don't...

Understand...

Too much stress... Almost can't be happy anymore...

you can be!
look on the brightside!
you're still alive!!
you're making it through this messed up world!!
stress is icky, take it a step at a time.
work on the first thing, and don't give up.
once you've done that, give yourself a mini break
and treat yourself.
i hope it all works out <3

I have to hand in an important document tomorrow.. in fact it might result in me getting some money from the uni every month (and I really do need any money I can get), but.. I have to bring it to a building I've never been to and I'm kinda scared about it? Really scared, actually. ;v; It's so important and I'm really scared of messing up..

i hope it all went well!!!
hopefully you never messed up
good luck <3

Lunch used to be the only good period at school....I had my only two actually decent friends, and another person who I've started to become friends with through the other two. I was actually happy at lunch and I looked forward to it every day... well, the days I had that lunch. The semester was over and the four of us knew we were gonna be staying in that lunch.
Well, Monday was the first day of the new semester, and I got to lunch and there were two new people I wasn't expecting....my "friends", I'll call them R and H. I used to be best friends with H, and when we started to grow apart a bit, R became my best friend for a while. By the end of the school year before last school year, H treated me like complete poop, but I don't like losing friends or standing up to them incase it hurts them, and R had replaced me and started ignoring me and treating me like poop too.
R is a little easier to deal with but last semester I didn't see either of them at all and i was happier, it made life a little easier.
R sits next to me now and she doesn't ignore me but now won't leave me alone so I can't exactly talk to my other friends much. H doesn't have a seat at the table, so she sits with us at the beginning while my other friends go buy their lunch then leaves and sits somewhere else, but she's always back before lunch ends and stands right behind me and it makes me really uncomfortable.
Yesterday when she came back, I tried talking to her cause she won't leave anyway, and she started asking me if my bf has cheated on me yet cause its long distance. I was starting to get mad and then she started playing with my hair and just touching me and would not stop, sometimes I don't mind but it depends who it is, and when and stuff, but I told her to stop and she wouldn't. I was wearing a sweater with a kinda low cut open back, so I was wearing a tank top under it and I guess it kinda slipped down so the back of my bra was showing and she said she liked my top then proceeded to pull the back of my bra and let it snap against my back and I was like " what the fudge? Stop" and tried ignoring her cause I was just done at that point. Then she hugged me and wouldn't let go and she was like "you can hug me back you know" so I put my hand on her arm and she said "you're so rude" and let go. Then after lunch she followed me to my next class.
She's trying to switch lunches and I'm hoping she can before tomorrow or I'm gonna be stuck with her for an hour and a half in study tomorrow....
I can't deal with people....

she is invading your personal space!!
tell her it's not okay
i know you hate telling people that incase it hurts them,
but they're hurting YOU.
you don't deserve that.
please try and tell them to stop and if they don't
you'll do something,
or at least tell a teacher or your other friends.
good luck boo <3

I thought this new school would be fine. The first months until now. I have friends. All of them are girls. Yes, I might talk to boys for a second, but nothing more. My friends are nice to me, I think they realized that I was alone the first week so they became my friends. I made a small group. But now, people are expecting that I am a lesbian, I am not against lesbians or anything, but I am not one. My friend always comes to me and tells me that "X said that he thought that we are gay" and I would be hurt inside, but I'll joke about it saying something such as "Well, I'll yell at them later" But now. But now people are making fun of me and I am feeling depressed.

stand up for yourself!!
get it through peoples heads!!
go up to someone who thinks you are and say
"i am NOT so stop ASSUMING and spreading rumours!"
people can't do that!
i hope they stop soon,
stay strong!!<3

I have the final draft of a paper due on Monday. I got the rough draft back recently, there was A TON of righting on it. Now my dad wants me to finish the final draft by Friday! I also have extracurricular activities EVERY DAY. On top of that the I have to give a 5 minute presentation about my paper to the class on Wednesday! I just want to have some free time but I am getting really stressed about it and I am having trouble sleeping because of it, which then leads to not working on the paper because I am tired which starts the whole cycle over again.

I am also just feeling really bad because it feels like my teacher hates me with the comments she left on my draft. And she is the really scary teacher, now whenever I am in her class I just feel sick to my stomach.

All this worry and stress just make me want to cry, but if I cry I can't work on my paper. The worst part is that I am getting moody and get angry really easily and I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

here is the thing:
a teacher is trying to HELP you, they're not there to hate you.
they'll do anything to try and help you pass your exams.
you can cry.
it's fine.
do it one thing at a time.
don't go to those activities it means you have to do your work;
after all school work is your education.
work on each thing for an hour with half an hour breaks at a time
once you've done one thing, reward yourself!
whether it is with chocolate or a warm drink or a chapter
of your favourite book or an episode of your favourite tv show.
good luck!!<3

everything feels pointless
I dont want to do anything at all

i know you feel this way, but you'll be okay.
honestly, you will.
get out of bed; that's the first thing
be proud of yourself for doing that
have a shower; it should help motivate you
also be proud of yourself for doing that bc showering is a pain in the bum.
take the day slowly!
i hope you're doing okay!!<3

I really need to get over myself.

I'm such a stubborn person at times when it comes to changes.
Or when things come up that I don't want to have happen because
I'm so attached to a character. Even when they're not mine to
begin with.

I know I'm stubborn at times, but aren't we all when there's
something that we don't particularly like? I'm trying to be
more open to new ideas, especially when its your
character but I guess I liked our original ideas when we
first went through the first time. I'm not the biggest fan of
changes when I'm so used to something already.

I'm so stressed out, so physically drained after the five
exams that we're done today. But right now I feel as if
my stress and stubbornness is getting the best of me and
pushing away those that I trust and care about so much
online. I'm honestly close to tears right now. I don't
want to lose any of my friends, especially my online ones
that mean the world to me. But I fear that I am.

Why can't I just be a normal person?
One who's more willing.
A better friend that's open to ideas without having to put
in my own input.
I guess I'm just a failure on my own again. ;n;

nah it's fine, don't worry.
you are normal
you are a good friend already.
explain to your friends how you feel,
and say you haven't had the best of days
so your mood is a bit off.
they'll understand.
five exams is a lot, i hope they went okay.
just take it slowly the rest of the week,
exams are tough and you don't want
to make yourself more stressed out by worrying.
have a bath with a warm drink and your favourite show,
or light a candle and read a book.
good luck <3

I despise catch all test questions.
If you are going to give me a 65 question quiz, and I have to take it in an hour, don't expect me to read all of the fine print.
When there is one word that completely changes the entire complexity of the question, and the three others that follow it the term should be bolded, or at minimum, the question should be clear on the objective.

Thinking out of the box is fine.
I get that we are in a higher education course-
but there is a point you are so far out of the box, you may as well call it a cylinder,
because when you set a person up to fail they will -
And don't expect me to be happy about it.

If you are going to give a crap test professor, and then complain that nobody did well, when most missed the same question/s there is a problem with the question and not the students.


Your focus jumps around like a rabbit in a field, and you go back and forth and correct yourself at least 10xs every class,
of course we are confused.

I enjoy the couse material, and I don't mind doing the work - but crap test=crap over all scores,
and that is not OK.

i honestly have no idea on how to reply to this,
except for stay strong!!
i understand some exams are stressfull and
annoying and aren't clear, but just
read the questions carefully.
it doesn't matter if you don't complete the whole thing,
that isn't your fault.
good luck!!<3

good luck <3

Oh boy

it's tough starting a new school, trust me, i've done it enough times.
you'll be fine!!
stay in contact with your old friends!! (i do)
and plan to meet up with them!
plus, you might even like your new school more than this one.
good luck !! <3

i hate the fact I get panic attacks over LITERALLY nothing.

just make sure you keep it under control,
and speak to someone about it.

hey, people do care.
and you may not think people don't notice, but they do.
everyone would notice if you died, please don't ever
think like that. people care for you and lov eyou.
lie down and rest, you really need it.
if you pass out anymore, go to the doctors.
please remain to exist.
talk to someone about it, whether it's family or
a professional.
don't give up in life yet.
you'll be missed so much.
rest now, health comes before homework.
i hope you feel better soon.
good luck <3
