I went out to lunch with my mom the other day (she has been wanting to forever) she was very happy

Ok I'm not here often but came across something that was really nice and made me feel really good. It was an envelope from a class a few years ago, students had to write something nice or encouraging or something for their classmates- the catch, it had to be personal. So cleaning my room, I came acr...

I cried a bit, felt horrible but didn't cut, I was happy for a bit of the day

I actually got a few real tears out but feel like I need a few more

I emailed back about a referral! (I was so nervous about asking!)

And I haven't si for 2 days even though there have been strong urges

Not quite sure what to say but I read, I have felt that way too. Try not to push your friends out, maybe theres one you can talk to to get an objective opinion when you start over analysing stuff.
I hope you feel better being in that downward spiral sucks. ((hugs)) if you want.

Cool idea
I told a professor a friend of mine would be a perfect candidate to work in their lab!
My friend was nearly speachless

Interesting topic Actually I love school, but I think a big part of feeling pretty comfortable is that I'm always cold anyway and nearly everyone wears long sleeves there (it's in San Francisco, it's always freezing, and of course I know where petaluma is :) ) I did figure out I do need to be cautio...
