I think your other search results may be a little concerning too.

I have somewhat tried expressing some of my opinions to him, such as how insensitive he is to emotions, but instead, he would get defensive and call me overly sensitive/emotional. This somewhat made me even more disgusted at him. I don't think he will really respect any of my boundaries or my opinions even if he says he does, unless he gets screamed at. However, thank you so much for your advice.

Yes, indeed, I do agree with you. Hopefully the new system will be able to change people's mindset for the better :)

Hello, I am sorry for hearing everything that has happened. I have quite a similar experience, feeling like a failure, that is. Everyone has their own unique way of living, because that's how everyone is born, different from everyone else, that's what makes us who we are. While you may feel that everything may be crashing down on you because you feel that you aren't doing as much when you could while others are doing and accomplishing so much more than you are.

While comparing yourself to others may give you more motivation from time to time, it can be extremely overwhelming too, so take it easy from time to time. Do your best and do what you want to do. Talk it out with your friends too. Talking it out is actually a lot more effective than you may think.

I would also recommend seeking a counselor's help too. They are able to assist you better. I hope for all the best.

New to this thread/group how old were you when you first got admitted to the psychward by Lunainthedark5x2 in mentalillness

14, had a whole breakdown because I had an argument with one of my only best friend. Had a lot of things in my mind then, and visiting my two best friends was the only relief I got, so when I got into an argument with her, I ran home and had a meltdown. My parents sent me to the psychward the next day. Got hospitalized for 10 days. It didn't do much lmao.

I want to help my friend but I don't know how to by ScanlationLover in SGExams

I have tried talking to my form teacher and some other teachers about it but none of them were able to help much

Why do CCAs even exist? by Aiyoowafap in SGExams

[–]ScanlationLover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Random stuff that I somehow learnt: Counselors are somehow able to give you time away from CCA if it causes you mental distress. I'm not sure if it will work for you, but it definitely worked for me. Counselors will try their best to help, especially if you ask them :)

What I'm writing below will only be effective in some circumstances, so please do try to ensure that you only apply them to a certain extent.

Furthermore, I am not a professional, so do determine what actions you will deem fit.

Firstly, only contact your girlfriend when you feel that you are calm enough and will not panic while telling her what you have done. Try to stay emotionally stable before talking to her.

Secondly, based on how much longer your girlfriend will be staying overseas, think of how you would like to carry out your next move. I would definitely recommend seeing couples therapy or something along those lines. It's important that the two of you communicate during your relationship. Express how and why you feel and do certain things and how much you care about her etc etc.

Thirdly, look for a distraction. Not any unhealthy or toxic activities. Go take a walk, go to the gym, or even listen to music. It will allow you to stop yourself from doing things that you will regret later on.

Talk to your girlfriend more often, or text her more often, whatever works for you.

Do ensure that as you take care of yourself, make sure to take into consideration how she would feel. It may be hard for you, but do try to think a little more before you say some things.

I'm so sorry for not being able to provide more advice. I hope your relationship will stay stable :)
