I'm really trying to feel better about myself

I don't know where to start with this, there's so much in my head right now...

I've got nothing, but my cat...no job, no friends, far from a family priority etc. etc.

My mum died 10 years ago on 26.2 and I still miss her so badly, she was the only person I had who was in my corner. Everyone else (family, friends that currently aren't talking to me) say I play the victim and am all "woe is me"

My sister's said I look like a silverback gorilla and other such things. She's a bully who gets away with it all, because she's the favourite and "normal" (kids, married, no mental illness - although I have doubts about that last one). My dad's called me fat and said that "You're bent like your mother" (she was bipolar). He lives with me and getting him to do anything is such a battle, he doesn't feel like paying the rent, so it's left to me, goes to work when he feels like it, helps my sister with her house but won't with me etc. etc. etc....I could go on and on with them!!

I have a GP and a psychologist that I should go back to (sessions are free and they're within walking distance), but I wonder if it's worth it when my psychologist said me running an instagram account for a celebrity is me living in fantasy land

I won't write any more, because I can't see anyone replying. I've got nothing and nobody and just want to forget...

Thanks Birdy 🙂

I'm trying to relax tonight. I'm meant to be up early to revise for a quiz tomorrow

Last applied psychology quiz done...expecting a P1 or lower. No idea how I'm going to study for the exam...or the group work one...

I'll find out my mark around 5pm when the quiz closes.

My headache is back and my stomach hurts...

I'm trying to keep my brain occupied until 5pm...thinking about buying some artificial turf for my backyard, about $350 worth. It would only be done roughly over weedmat. I'm renting so perfection isn't necessary, I just want to take it when I move.

I have loads of bindi's and not much lawn, just want something nicer (and cooler) for me and Buddy to walk on.

Another decision for spending study grant money...

Phew - got a credit for the quiz and not another P1, for a change!!

How am I going to wait 2 weeks for exam results?! I have trouble waiting a day!!

Going to have to keep busy with my to do list...oh boy...

On your grades... Congratulations.

On waiting... just take each day one at a time. You will get there. Trust.

Thanks Tim,

I'm quite pleased with the credit for the quiz, it was unexpected...now for the essay mark - EEEK!! - that's one I dread like the exam marks.

I just had a guy come and change my shower head and put in 8 LED globes for free. All I did was google "free light globes", not sure if it's useful to anyone else who reads here, but anything to save money...I think the place that came to me in Adelaide is also in Melbourne and Sydney (ecovantage). I posted in the cafe about it as well

Hi MF,

If you get the astroturf, at least the grass will always be greener on your side of the fence 😉

Hiya there Tim

So true..

Take each day at a time. 👍

That applies to all facets of our lives no matter what we're dealing with.

Enjoy reading your posts though I don't disclose anything about myself to others.

Have a great day.

Hava good one!

Yeah, I know. Neighbour has started again...I just want to be left alone to fail uni...

I found fake turf, front and back for $260, so I'll probably do it, not properly (not bothering to dig up what's there already - too much effort), but I can rip it all up and take it with me when I move and maybe sell it, if I don't need it.

Trying to feel motivated to finish uni work...but it's not there yet, mind you I don't feel well which doesn't help anything. I struggled to do my dishes.

Finally got my neighbour...left a message for reporting next week. Hopefully the guy doesn't ignore me.

I should celebrate, but feel too icky, stomach pain has hit 😞 Going to watch netflix and try and eat something for tea
