  • I had another scary dream. Thank goodness my alarm clock woke me up.

    Ever keep a record of your dreams? Not just particular ones that stand out, but any that you remember? Can be interesting to review, see what was on your sleeping mind over time.

    Mine are often scary. I like tree’s suggestion though.
    Intensely sad that I don’t have a girlfriend and others are telling me they don’t want me to have a relationship.

    That must be very tiresome. At the risk of sounding like that mental health service ad.....you'll feel better when you stop carrying the weight of their opinions around.

    I’ve often been told the best revenge is living well. I don’t really understand what it means, though.

    Source of that phrase is much older than I realized.
    I finally saw the lowest price for Swans’ Cop album ($33. Still ouchie, yes, but less so than other times I’ve seen it.) and ordered it.
    I always feel like I am being talked negatively about. :(

    Me too :( It’s most likely not real though. You have to have faith in the fact that there are people who really care about you.
    I feel so rushed and anxiety isn’t helping that feeling.

    In general? Or was that particular to today ?

    Today after I found out I missed some assignments and emails as well as dropped low in my checkings. I am filing out my W2.
    I am almost broke and I am not receiving college emails regarding my class for some reason.

    @tree I talked to the teacher and it turns out the emails we’re going elsewhere in my college email account than where I thought they should go.

    The "like" is for finding out by talking to the teacher.
    Maybe I need to truly disappear from this place? I failed so much in this life that I think my death is approaching sooner instead of later.

    Seek out professional help if you are seriously thinking of ending it all, but we are still here for you.

    Message me if you think it might help… but yes, definitely contact a professional, especially if you’re thinking about suicide. But if you’re having anxiety about death in general, that’s probably something to bring up to a therapist. I have a death phobia too and it’s not easy to deal with :(

    I know i'm not the picture of good mental health, but if I can make it this far, so can you, friend. Hang in there.
    How do I know if I am offered a VIP membership?

    I knew in my gut that my comment would trigger that sort of response. I'm not saying females can't be friends with females. I just read these random acts of kindness as having more of a romantic undertone. And yes - I know not everyone is hetero, but in the western world nearly 90% of each gender is hetero. And yes, I know - apparently there's more than 2 genders.

    Sorry if the tone seems off. I just feel like I need to cover my back here to avoid causing any further confusion or conflict.

    I didn't think of the gesture of gifting V.I.P. memberships as romantic, at all. Still don't.
    I was running late for class but when I got to the campus, I was told a power outage happened so it’s been cancelled for today.

    That’s happened to me before lol

    Is it a M/W class? Or M/W/F? Or what?

    Ate another vitamin chewable. I actually like the taste of this variety!

    What flavor? (Also watch out about chewables. Sometimes they have sweeteners in them that can be laxative.)
    Markness
    Markness
    Lemon. Hmmm…maybe that’s partly why I’ve had to use the toilet a lot lately?
    I feel like being mischaracterized as a misogynist and another person wrongfully accusing me of harassing someone has ruined my reputation.
    Took a vitamin D chewable after work.

    Is that unusual for you?

    It is since I normally had to swallow stuff whole.

    The D I have is very small. Gel caps. 2000IU.
    To all those who bullied me as a child and a teen: I hope you’re happy. You got what you wanted and that was for me to suffer.

    You seem to be bullying yourself these days.

    My therapist has told me that before.

    Those traumas and judgements of others can become internalised and then start repeating themselves. I still have parental judgements from many years ago running through my head daily.
    Did I miss a social opportunity? I saw a girl wearing heavy metal fashion but was too nervous to approach her for some historical reasons.

    Missed social opportunity and opted for the default of worrying, hesitancy and avoidance?

    I was also at work.

    That's what I had in mind when I said "depends on the circumstances." Work is not a social playground. Probably there could have been an appropriately phrased comment/compliment, though.
    Not sure if my stepfather was being sarcastic or not when he replied with “Thanks” after I texted him a classic heavy metal video.

    Well metal is often called "dad rock" so maybe it's sincere?

    Also, hard to tell nuance by text. This is why I don't text much (apart from my phone being a pain to use.) I mean what else was he to text in reply?
    Best not to think abt. this stuff as it is meaningless.

    @BrokenBoy He tends to not like distorted music but I try to show him that just because something is distorted doesn’t mean it’s not musical.

    @Gerontius I suppose so.
    I had a nightmare that involved my fears of never having a romantic relationship coming into my life. :(

    That makes sense. I used to have the classic *here I am in class, it's time for the test, and I haven't been to class in weeks.* or *the paper is due on Monday, it's Friday now and I haven't done any research....* Dreams can be pictures of what concerns us. Sometimes disguised. Sometimes, not so much.

    I sometimes get nightmares that I am still in high school while also still working or I am far away from work and I need to drive there but the time window is small.
