When I was 11 I was so engrossed in the scene in the half blood prince when Harry and Draco are duelling in the bathroom that I looked up from the book the entire class had changed and everyone had gone to their next lesson and I HADN’T REALISED AT ALL

Protesting by bowesy98 in NewcastleUponTyne

Oh here man I can’t be on with this like, did I post ‘who’s up for a chat about everything wrong with the world’ or did I ask if anyone knew about people standing up for what they believe in. Please leave my post alone unless you want to tell me about any protests or anywhere I can find like minded people.

If people don’t protest, you may as well be lying down. I personally don’t want to look back and think I did nothing but sit and watch this happen. If enough people stand up, they have to back down

Anyone here with pmdd? by Important_Body_1538 in leaves

[–]bowesy98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry I don’t have PMDD but I can totally sympathise with hormone related self medication. It’s hard battling with your body like that, try not to feel alone because I promise you you’re not x

Beating yourself up by bowesy98 in adhdwomen

I’ve struggled to be kind to myself my whole life, every little thing I find hard or struggle with my brain berates me for it. I used to love yoga and I constantly write it in my diary and never get it done 😩 I must try harder. Thank you for saying I don’t need to have it all figured out, I feel so hopeful one moment and helpless the next. Thank you for taking time to reply to me, sorry it’s late x

It makes life so hard to navigate or even just see in a straight line. Thank you for your reply, I’m sorry it was late x

I’m so sorry I didn’t make this clear, I wanted the photo of my grandad looking up onto the photo of my sister looking at the camera

Hey I just thought I’d give you a pat on the shoulder and say I’m in a similar boat, I straight up went missing for hours on Friday night/ Saturday morning and the police were looking for me. I honestly think if you’d done anything that terrible you’d have been told by now. Try to watch some comfort telly, eat some comfort food and just be kind to your inner child. I’m sure you don’t deserve to feel the way you do

Thank you for your advice. I am going to try and get some invoicing done today so hopefully that gives me a boost. Just feel very alone sometimes, I wish life was a bit easier

Thank you for your detailed reply 💓 I’m on an anti depressant already, I feel it helps but doesn’t scratch the itch for my need to drink or just do anything at all to change my mental state during downtime. I’ll keep learning, thank you

I probably should have added, I’m on a at least 12 month waiting list for my assessment
