2 AnswersMental Health4 years agoHow can I stop feeling down by remembering not fitting in when I was younger?
Hey guys
I'm 25 and studying at uni.
Recently bad memories of times when I mistreated by peers, didn't fit in and was laughed at have been going through my head.
Despite this, I did have many friends throughout my recent years and still do. However when I remember certain people from the past who made me feel out of place or bad about myself, it really hits me hard and makes me feel weak.
Is there a way to overcome this struggle?

Hey guys
I'm 25 and studying st uni.
Recently I met my girlfriend on an online site called 7cups. I met her as she was a listener and we hit it off str8 away.
Unfortunately due to a massive mistake, I was also talking to another girl on the same site who got on with me and flirted but ended up blocking me later.
My gf (probably ex now) just asked me out of the blow have u been on 7cups? Which I said no. It says on 7cups it is strictly confidential, if so how did she know I was talking to another girl?
I feel so awful I can't eat and because she hasn't told me yet why she isn't talking and hasn't blocked me I'm panicking and can't sleep. At the same time I owe up to my dreadful mistake and don't know what to do with myself??

1 AnswerSingles & Dating4 years agoEverything I put effort into seems to go to failure what do I do?
Hey guys
I'm 25 and studying at uni.
Recently I have had a lot of health problems in my early twenties so I kind of spent that time healing.
Recently though everything I really really want in life that I try my best to acheiev feels like its a million miles away. The thing that worries me is that my peers have achieved everything I really wish I could and it makes me feel useless in comparison.
To put into context these goals include:
Strong self confidence
Getting a job and earning my own money
Getting a girlfriend/women
Being more active and energetic.
I try NY best everyday to improve as a person and push for my goals, but what do I do in times when they feel impossible?
