I don’t know what to do lately someone has been lurking around the house for the past weekend and I’m just so paranoid I don’t know what to do my mother doesn’t really believe me I just keep hearing someone opening things and knocking I know it isn’t my schizophrenia like someone is there and I just really don’t know what to do I’m so stressed out and really tired and all I can do is pray I can’t call the police because I don’t have proof and I have a dog he’s just dumb asf and he don’t know how to guard and like I feel like someone is gonna kill me when I’m asleep and I just can’t sleep with having thoughts like tho and actually dealing with something like this it isn’t the first time but eh when will it stop I haven’t done anything to deserve this all I can really do is pray but sometimes I feel like god isn’t on my side it’s like nearly 11pm and this person is still at it like before I use to have stalkers and they would stand at my parents backyard and watch me I just didn’t know it was gonna get kinda worse like I can’t even explain anything I’m scared for my life and my parents cus I can’t do anything bout it

My name is Lia I’m in year 11 and have been struggling with school forever, last year I finally realised that the group of friends I had been with since preschool were actually bullying and excluding me. I would be sitting alone in silence the whole day as every talked to anyone but me feeling worse and worse each day causing me to go to school less and less until my parents moved me to a different school half way through the year. Even after that I was still really struggling with going to school every day and I would be in the staff room crying almost every day. My parents decided it would be best for me to attend distance education instead this year, is was going ok at first until my grandparents decided to take over my learning and enforce strict schedules of what i was doing and when, they would call me several times a day to talk about school plans and would show up to my house to do things like clean my room or take me to lunch every other day it was fine at first but it kept on escalating until my grandmother dropped me off at the distance education campus one day and dragged me out of the car as I was crying from anxiety and dragged me to the classroom as the entire school and my whole class watch me cry. I told my parents that I didn’t want my grandparents help anymore but they said that if they didn’t help then they new I couldn’t do it myself and they were both to busy with work to make sure that I was on track and said that I didn’t have a choice even thought I now don’t like my grandparents and hate school and the idea of getting a job or doing anything in the future even more now my mum would always tell don’t worry it will be better next year for three years now, after it got worse then she just said sorry but this is how the real world works I feel like I’ve lost the support of both my friends and family in the span of two years I was just arguing with my mum about this and just wanted to post here to feel a bit better and know that others have seen it.

Hey so I've never written on here for myself before but I'm just really feeling lost and alone right now. I'm 21 years old female and was working until I had a pretty sever car accident about a year ago which rendered me unable to go back to work until I was well enough. At first they told me 1 month then 2 months then 4 etc and now we are here over a year later and I have just started back at work. I am struggling. I'm good at my job but it's overwhelming and still painful with my injuries and i am frustrated because I still can't do the hours I could before. I t feels like somone stole 1 year of my life and I'm so lost and don't know what to do. No one around me seems to understand how hard it is for me to go back to work when I've been down at home for so long. I just keep thinking about what my life would be like if I wasn't in that accident which I know is stupid to do but I can't help it. I feel lost and alone even though I have people physically around me. Anyway I don't know where I'm going with this or even if anyone will respond I guess I just wanted to talk about it somewhere. Thanks for taking the time to read if you did.

Hi. I’ve been getting 50-60% on my assessments for term 1 I’m in year 12. I have gotten 30% in legal and 50% in English advanced, 40% in maths standard, 50% in modern history, 70% in biology for term 2. I really want an ATAR that is at least 80-90, and I want to do criminology alongside with forensics. I do so many curricular activities at school so it’s been tough on me. I don’t think my goal for 80-90 ATAR is possibile anymore, and now I’m scared because I will end up being a disappointment at this rate

So recently, I've felt very tired, physically. Like I can't be bothered to do anything anymore and I'm struggling to focus in my classes. It hasn't affected my grades but it has been worrying me. On top of that, I always feel so restless and I always struggle to fall asleep. Recently, I've been having trouble sleeping properly and not being able to doze off, which is making me more tired. I don't know if anyone else experiences this or is struggling through this. I'm also half-way through my high-school journey so maybe thats why. Also this is my first time using this website to talk.

I'm new to beyond blue, and need a space to connect with people my age and going through sorta the same things, here's some things about me!I'm 12, a year seven in highschool, and a combination type ADHD mind."what is combination type ADHD, LKIO?" simple! inattentive and hyperactive, it's a living nightmare in school.I also have a few other things, since ADHD rarely, if not never, is alone up in our heads. I also have anxiety, depression, and some other things. One of my special interests is Warframe! I main volt, and I have the Amir Gemini skin, and I decided to grind for Nova to get the Kaya Gemini skin!I hope I can make some friends :3

Hey everyone! Just wondering how I can self refer for a school counselling session…? I’ve never done this before so I’m not sure how to book one, and I don’t really want to ask anyone in person because that might worry them and I don’t want to have to worry about someone worrying about me, y’know?Do I just contact my school via email or is there a specific type of person who I need to reach out to? I.e, deputy head, head of well-being, office staff. (of course, if every Aussie school has a different wellbeing system then I guess asking for specifics is pointless)You know what, it would probably be best if someone just gave me a list of instructions as to what they did or what they recommend I do because I am way in over my head with this. (If you need context I’m asking because I’m losing sleep and the ability to function due to prolonged stress and anxiety)

Alright so I am literally overwhelmed as hell, I'm thinking of the worst to come to me, I'm justifying I'm going to hell, I'm trying to think of reasons why It's not what I think, I'm freaking out, please somebody help me, I screwed around a lot when I was younger (Im 19 now) and its coming back to me what that means. Im not 100% sure, but I'm certain. I'm feeling the worst in my stomach, I cant do anything to distract myself and I cant even find myself deserving to find happiness or like my old self again. I'm seriously panicking, and I know this is risky to talk about with the circumstances of the topic but If I just can't talk about it to somebody I'm gonna be risking worse of myself. I'm currently crying, shaking, panicking, I feel isolated to talk about it because idk if It'll get me in trouble. I feel nauseous, I'm confused, I'm scared, I'm so so shameful, I need help forgiving myself or recovering from this, please.
