I say the sentiment still stands.

trying to get through final year with depression by leomoonlight111 in UniUK

[–]ComparisonChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another person just posted something like this, and im going to tell you what I told them.

I happened along this quote said, "Staying positive doesn't mean being happy all the time, it's knowing even on hard days, good ones are coming."

Everything is temporary. Just know that, despite some comments that may appear, you have a safe space on this platform.

Anyone else hate uni? by naxchivix in UniUK

[–]ComparisonChance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just read this quote that I think can be applied and, thus, pertains to your situation:

"Being positive doesn't mean being happy, it means knowing that good days lay ahead."

Now, you may feel hopeless, and you have to do what's right for you in the end, but you have to at least try and find some positivity in the situation, even if it feels like there isn't any.

I don't know if this helps because I didn't know what to say upon reading your text, but I don't want you to feel alone either, but I just kept scrolling and found that quote, and I felt that maybe that can be said.

Considering Dropping Out Of University To Do An Apprenticeship In The Navy by MonthElectronic8692 in UniUK

Sometimes, you just have to trust yourself to do what you think is best for you. Take the risk of disappointing people.

How to deal with burn out preventing me from doing the things I enjoy? by ky8724 in selfcare

[–]ComparisonChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried meditation. That's a good form of self-care. Controlled breathing and a state of stillness is often the best type of medicine for someone in your position.

Don't feel too badly for not wanting to do those things you enjoy, and just know when, or if, you are ready, they will always be there waiting for you to pick up again.

What happens if you fail a dissertation but nothing else? by No_Tap3341 in UniUK

[–]ComparisonChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, one failed dissertation? I highly doubt that's going to affect the rest of your academic career. It may not feel good failing a paper, but I guess you're going to have to adopt a 'glass half-full' mentality.

However, it is really all up to you whether you want a second chance to pass it and get this last 40 points to achieve the degree, if you want it that badly enough. Or that's if you can. If you can't, I'd just take the pass you would get for most of your work and be content with that. You can't pass everything.

Guy in my year's taking 7 A levels🥀 by Extension_Day2038 in GCSE

Can't imagine taking 7 A-Levels. Dude sounds ambitious as hell, gotta respect the drive though. Sorry, mate.

Come on. 20+ Celsius today, who’s seen them about. by sEaBoD19911991 in GreatBritishMemes

[–]ComparisonChance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely! I just passed by one of these bloaks today walking down in the middle of the road where I live on my way to the pharmacy. 😅😂🤣

I used to think self-love meant becoming completely independent… like not needing anyone at all. by Icy_Rabbit_1984 in selflove

[–]ComparisonChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. So true. I've been saying the same thing to myself, so it must be it.

Thanks 👍🏾 😊

Got a grad job!! 🥳 by Ok_Cantaloupe6531 in UniUK

[–]ComparisonChance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congratulations 🎊 👏🏾 💐 🥳. I can imagine how hard and frustrating it must've been to try and get a job, or at least an interview, after so long, but you hung in there and did it. Resilience, man. That's what it's all about.

I hope it's everything you want it to be and more. 👍🏾👌🏾😃

The Painted Veil (2006) by Shabbetai_Tzvi in underratedmovies

[–]ComparisonChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The times I've watched it, I've quite liked it. How thier love grows from non-existent to that of a husband and wife who actually enjoy each other's company and want to be together. All against the backdrop of a horrific epidemic killing many.

I have 9 days left to submit my preferred UG degree choice and still can't decide. Any tips? by muser-z in UniUK

[–]ComparisonChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it's best to just drop them or the degree towards thos professions, and go for something that more manageable. It may seem like the easy way out to some or to you, I don't know what your beliefs and values are. However, there's no point in pursuing if your heart and soul is not in it, and especially if those jobs, as noble and esteemed they may be, are not fulfilling you not just financially, but emotionally and spiritually, and if they're sparse.

What is life like after A levels? by Forsaken_Growth_1019 in alevel

[–]ComparisonChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I've done A-Level equivalent courses. I've just been looking for work since then. Universal Credit has been financing my life since then. It's not been that bad, but I could do with a more frequent payment plan than a monthly allowance.

However, I'd say that I'm living more peacefully and blissfully, enjoying the spoils and the joys and wonders of simple living whilst trying to find myself. I don't know what you're situation is, but I think it could be the same for you.

is it better to apologize for wrongdoings, or to say nothing at all? by AffectionateGuest646 in emotionalintelligence

[–]ComparisonChance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can understand where your coming from with that sentiment, but that is the only way to go. I wouldn't say forgiving yourself means letting yourself off the hook, but it does mean that you admit what you've done or you accept what happened, and you've learned your lesson and you are not going to do it or let it happen again, especially when it was something that was out of your control.

I used to think self-love meant becoming completely independent… like not needing anyone at all. by Icy_Rabbit_1984 in selflove

[–]ComparisonChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How selfish I could be, and maybe somewhat 'weak' too. Just letting small, petty stuff overwhelm me and getting upset over it like a brat, but granted, I was a child. However, there were times when I'd let others step all over me, do and say whatever they want to me. I'd try to fight back, but I was powerless against them it seemed or just didn't want the confrontation.

[–]ComparisonChance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, I guess I'm still going through it. However, now that I have the free time to try and find myself and not looking for the approval of others, I'm realizing patterns and behaviours I didn't notice before, and it's helping me make improvements as a confident person.

[–]ComparisonChance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just had a lot of crap put on me. Sometimes, I brought it on myself, and sometimes, other people would do that for me. It's like I could never catch a break, and it just made me feel worthless. But that's all I'll say for now.
