Living nightmare- Trigger Warning

[JustEM]

Hey there,

Things sound really overwhelming for you just now. But things can and will get better, I promise.

Could you try taking some time out for you and breaking down the problems in order of which ones are affecting you most? Then you will be able to prioritise what you can overcome first.

For example,

Already, you have overcome the stress of finding somewhere to live. Do you feel able to express the necessity of your roommate stepping up? That's really not fair of them. Could a tutor or one of your friends be with you when you tell her if you think that would help you of course.

I'm sorry to hear about your leg. How is it healing? It's really important that you take time for YOU to rest and do things you enjoy. I haven't watched Black Mirror, but whilst you're feeling low could you watch comedies and more lighthearted stuff that will only ever boost your mood?

Really sorry to hear about your relationship not working out, but if you wanted different things then perhaps it was best to find out sooner rather than later on in the relationship? Is it unhelpful to you keeping in touch with your ex? If so then maybe limit contact or stop contact? You know what's best for you.

Keep being open with your tutors. They are there to help and guide you. Do you think it's a bit much with the two jobs and uni and all this emotional stress? Could you limit the stress by reducing your hours or just having one job? You will have more time to just breathe when your stresses are limited.

It's a positive that you do have friends around you. Have you shared how you're feeling with them?

You said you've been feeling alone. Are there any different societies or clubs you could join at uni to meet new people and take your mind off things?

Stick with the therapy and pop to see your GP again.

Take care of yourself. Thinking of you xx
