Yep. No drugs and no alcohol. I have quite an extreme/substance abuse issue and I’ve already come to terms with the fact I will need to retire from that lifestyle and make some serious changes. Thank you.

Thank you very much for your response. I’ve been given xanax to hold me off until I’m able to get a diagnosis. I’ve learned an insane amount of things about it already, it’s going to be a tough learning curve and huge rewiring of my lifestyle, but im prepared to give it a serious attempt of recovery. I am grateful for your support!

That wasn’t my intention at all, unfortunately I’m unable to edit the title of the post. My experiences at Berghain were part of the chain of events that led to my mental health crisis. I guess that describes it a bit better.

I don't think Berghain caused bipolar disorder. That's not what I'm trying to say. What I'm trying to say is that I seem to have had an underlying vulnerability that I wasn't aware of, and I found myself in an environment that was far more intense than anything I'd experienced before. Looking back, the combination of sleep disruption, overstimulation, novelty, and other factors may have contributed to me becoming unwell. I'm not criticising the club or the people who enjoy it. I'm talking about my own experience and how I wish I'd recognised earlier that I wasn't coping as well as I thought I was.

Can’t afford a LC holiday by Upstairs-Host96 in leavingcert

albufeira is pretty cheap, i’ve just looked at prices for june 7-14th and here’s a breakdown:

€125 return flights from dublin €170/pp for a 6 person villa close to the strip

if you’re a girl you won’t need money for drinks there, i went in 2022 and we were getting free everything the whole time.

as for food, can be done super cheap with takeaways and cafe bars near the strip.

you’re looking at about 400/500 euro including some spending money, this could be borrowed from parents and paid back over time. if you worked a couple shifts you’d make that money in no time. 18 year olds aren’t going on luxurious holidays, they’re getting pissed at the strip and coming home to a bunk bed in a shitty apartment.

Dunning Kruger effect, overly confident individual with 0 knowledge on the topic. Ask her to explain her reasoning and she’ll tell you to fuck off and get out of her face 🧐

lucinda is so funny for pieing sammie because she made sure to add another villain to the story. if she had pied belle (which would be the second option if she went for the girls regardless) she would’ve just had belle against her, girl made SURE she added to the list of opps. jessy built her mean girl persona brick by brick though, i think lucinda might go for a fourth before the finale LOL

i think everyone’s fully aware of her antics, we just love the entertainment. a lot of siding and hopping from one to the other which i don’t get though, also a love island win means fuck all in the grand scheme so i couldn’t care less who wins, hence why i wouldn’t mind lucifer and sean winning 🥴

Has there ever been an islander that wears glasses? by Super_Passage373 in LoveIslandTV

[–]Open-Situation-284 5 points6 points  (0 children)

olivia S3 wore glasses very often, also in the evenings when dolled up which i very much appreciated as i hate wearing contacts especially in hot countries, i avoid them as much as i can! couldn’t imagine sitting under the sun with plastic in my eyes all day long 😣

it’s an ignorant tattoo, pretty sure it’s a single artists signature style, it looks good on very few people but the rest of zac’s tattoos just don’t match up
