Thread: I need a bit of a confidence boost *trigger*

  1. #161
    So im applying for phd, and looking at flatshares in the meantime. If i get the phd ill stick in the current house and sav, pick up some tutoring or busking to get some extra cash. Might do that anyway.

    Been a bit melancholy lately, and feeling like ive been selfish demanding so much attention when im not able to give as much back.

    Well done for taking steps to improve things
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I feel like i need some looking after atm. Not someone to wait on me or do things for me, just some proper pastoral care, that no one seems willing to.give. Maybe im just whining. Am i even allowed to feel like that? I just feel like im having to deal with so much and everyone expects me to just deal with it because they dont know the full extent of it or they think i have support from.elsewhere and i just dont. Im not confident i can really look after myself properly atm.

    Have you spoken to those around you about how you are feeling? What about speaking to your Dr about it?

    Have you contacted your local Mind?

    Ive spoken to a few friends, but theyve not been very sympathetic or helpful. I mean, one of the things bothering me is that im now the last person in the group to live at hme or have a proper job, and while i dont want to conpare myself to other people, its difficult not to sometimes, and im certain that they'll all just be unbearable now. Plus the eye thing is really bothering me lately.

    You think your friends will be "unbearable" because you are still living at home? Then you need some better friends love. Get out and meet new people!

    No, its because theyll all be talking to each other about work all the time and ill have nothing to contribute. Its already like that when they all talk about driving (seriously, how is it possible to talk at length on multiple occasions about driving?!!). To be fair though ive been told a few times i need to get new friends, but this is something i struggle with.
