bus

saw a couple of posts on main about school work - leaving it until the last minute and i wondered if people had any tips on how to not let this happen or things they do etc to manage the problem.
thanks,

if you're willing to work on changing yourself at the same time then yes, it probably works. - i love a quote where it says the real therapy and real progress is made when alone. but like the others have said it's a personal thing. sometimes i've found that it's just one sentences that the therapist...

i'm not saying it's easy or that i do it all the time, but i do know that when i have got sleep/diet/exercise going where it should be, i feel like _i'm_ going where i should be. it's hard to explain unless you've felt it. you stand there and feel nearly complete and then you kick yourself for all t...

Could I ask, how does sugar actually affect me? I'm not doubting it, just curious. it disrupts your ability to function/deal with low moods e.g. if you're feeling a bit sad/bored and your blood sugar level is stable, then you'll usually figure out what to do e.g make a hot drink, go for a walk, cal...

cut out sugar (it's in ketchup too and jams), get enough sleep, find ways to deal with anxiety, avoid being on your own for long periods of time, pop bubble wrap/play with dough/exercise a lot, stop watching for it to decrease as that makes it harder. if you're depressed really work on improving you...

hey i'm glad you made it through. i admire your honesty, both of you. I can relate to a lot of what was said. my sister keeps saying 'take a break' but it doesn't help. i know i need one and yet it's 5 august and we don't do breaks at 5 august :o but i need one. :o :o so yeah, i can relate :-?

do you think you should go to the doctor?

have you tried all the common sense stuff to help the sleeping?

do you have loads of junk food/sugar?

have you tried any relaxation tapes? they can be calming i find.

give yourself time to adjust to relationship changes

you could write a letter and give it to her and sit with her whilst she reads it.

i'm not entirely sure i understand. i wanted to ask though, are you comfortable with making mistakes? and you have the right to not accept advice - people might say do x y z but if you don't want to do that then that is ok. seriously. if you don't own the decision of what you choose to do then imo y...

would it be possible to just go a bit crazy here. to just say to hell with it. i'm going to do it. i might be uncomfortable and scared but maybe, just maybe i can live the choice of not hurting myself. try it just for a day. then the second day. then when you get to 7 days put a sticker somewhere vi...

can you be honest with your parents? is that out of the question? i ask as if you did tell them then that would free you up to just wear the long sleeves and not worry the whole time. depending where it is, you could wear a bracelet or wear a small top under a shirt that is open. the 2 months is goo...

that's great the list of distractions/other things to do that you have. have you tried wearing a bracelet to remind yourself of those distractions etc?

nope but i love the idea.

.. I've been trying to think of ways I can leave the house, on most, if not all days....but still have to think of something for tomorrow. hi again, ^^ i too need a reason to leave the house. recently i've begun to buy a newspaper at the end of a 20 min walk which has helped. i do have a little pil...

just wanted to say that i too am having trouble with this. sometimes playing upbeat, really upbeat music helps me: at full volume. also, reading small parts (And i mean small) from the book: 'threads of hope: learning to live with depression, a collection of writing edited by flora mcdonnell' can he...
