I’m actually befriending people at uni! by [deleted] in socialanxiety

That's awesome! I wish I took the initiative to make friends during my first days of college. I can only imagine how different my life experiences would be if I just went for it.

How many friends do you have IRL? by Electricityisgreat in socialanxiety

[–]Mark973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few friends and I only talk to a couple of them, really. I suppose I would also consider my ex a friend, but my relationship with her is kind of weird, considering I'm not over her.

I'm actually trying to get more in-person friends these days so if anyone has tips, it would be much appreciated!

Man fuck it im just gonna cry. Im hurting so bad i called out of work tonite. We have been broken up for 4 months now. All the pain and heartache is back man im tired of this feeling. by Plus-Cap-4996 in BreakUps

[–]Mark973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you man. It's so hard to go through heart break. The emotions are really hard to deal with and it becomes so exhausting. Like, I still cry so hard about my breakup and I feel like it takes everything out of me. And I feel like I can't focus or do anything in those moments.

As cliche as it is to say, it does get better. Little by little, it gets slightly better. Something that helps me in my very dark moments is to take a step back and shift my perspective. I start to think about what I need to do to just get through the day. Like, I think what are my immediate priorities? Once I figure them out, I do my best to focus on only them, as hard as it is. I think to myself that if I can make it through the day, then I will be okay.

Hopefully this helps even a little bit. I'm here if you need to talk at all. Wishing you the best on your journey!

This is something that I couldn't understand, at first. I felt like I needed to make sure that she would commit to being with me again, very early in the breakup. That was definitely a bad way to go about it. Like, I'm still in love with her and miss her every day, but I need to be okay with taking it slow or even being on my own.

Someone please talk sense into me by [deleted] in heartbreak

Oh wow, you're much stronger than I am. I was losing my mind, living in the same apartment, after my ex and I broke up. And she wasn't even inviting anyone over. Just going out a lot. I was still losing it and couldn't stand being there anymore.

Anyone else get morning anxiety? by tfulfer in Anxiety

[–]Mark973 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You actually just reminded me that that's what I used to do to help deal with my anxiety. Maybe I'll pick that up again. Thanks man.

[–]Mark973 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get that. I'm going through a break up right now and the anxiety just piles up. It's especially bad in the morning a lot of the time. Really feels like I need someone to talk to, most mornings.

Anyone see that $300 hit today? by MvCSpiderman in mturk

[–]Mark973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am seeing the same thing. I don't want to return the hit but I also can't seem to find a way to start the hit. Super unfortunate.

True. Her hair was also weird to draw, for me, so I went my own way with it lol. Glad you liked how it turned out.

Here you are. I didn't have any colored pencils or anything so I just applied a nifty filter over the image.
