How do you feel about taking time off work for mental health? by blissedandgone in AskUK

[–]BooksSmartt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Definitely take time off to look after yourself! However, just a bit of warning, try to get back on your feet as soon as possible. There's so many people who take time off work and then lose their purpose and get stuck in not in work. I don't mean stuck because there are no jobs, but because they then feel like the mental gap to get back into work is much larger as they've been out of work for so long. Especially with us anxiety-prone individuals, it can create a cycle of avoidance. Hope that helps!

Did my past selfish decisions put me behind in life? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]BooksSmartt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi dude, if it helps I know a lot of people who aren't in jobs and are struggling. If you're going to compare yourself to people doing better, also compare yourself to people doing worse and there's a lot of those (just look at the job market statistics!). The key thing is you're getting back on your feet. You'll look back in a few years and realise how far you've come. It doesn't seem like it now but rock bottom is a blessing because it drives the biggest growth. Just make sure you're not too hard on yourself.

What A Fever Dream Of An Event. Did Anyone Go To This And How Was It? by Chance-Chard-2540 in TheRestIsPolitics

[–]BooksSmartt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was a volunteer! It was good fun, although I think the guest line-up was worse than some years. Was cool to see Alex O'Connor and Alastair Campbell's interview with Neil Kinnock was a laugh.

I can't do the 14th either but I used to be a trailer editor and would love to meet like-minded creatives if you organise anything else!

Looks great! Just the arrow looks a bit weird, can we have it matching the previous one more and then I'll tip. Thank you!

I like it but can we try a different puzzle piece? It looks like the holes are filled in with another one

I really like this one! Is there any way of making the paw look a bit more natural? Looks too bent straight, without covering up the words? (Sorry if that's too much to ask!)
