Well done for graduating on time, that's really great. And your words have been really nice to hear, you're right that things can turn out okay in the end, they just feel so bad right now. I'm so mad at myself for prolonging my stress, but I have to stop being mad if I want to be able to do it. I just was always a bit…

Thank you! Trying this strategy out now.

I would recommend talking to somebody about the anxiety now, because in my experience, as time got closer to the deadline, it got worse. Good luck though!

I know I will feel so much better when it's done, it just seems so hard to get to the 'done' part. :(

I'm sorry to hear that. It is the worst. I wish I had more contact with people who are finding it difficult, because I end up feeling so alone. I work on my own, which doesn't help. Good luck with your studies.

Yes!

same happened to my sister! And later on in the night, the midwife found her blue again as she couldn't breathe. Saved her life.

I'm so sorry to hear you're going through this. Maybe this Captain Awkward post will help? It's not the same situation but there's stuff on boundary setting with parents: http://captainawkward.com/2013/12/19/531…

that is difficult, but it sounds like you have the right idea in mind. In the past, when I've had problems with friends, my mom always gives the advice 'dilute her!' Being a work environment, it definitely will be easier said than done, but maybe you could start being unavailable for social things, or change your…

true story: Gillian Anderson was my friend's landlord a few years ago.

it was a well-meaning creepy lady who went to church with the people in the neighbourhood!

I went to Split, Croatia with my boyfriend a few weeks ago. The whole time, he kept on saying 'You know what's going to happen when we get to Splitsville'. We managed to make it through Splitsville and are still together. I'm a bit worried that he'll send me to Dumpsville next though.

What kind of things did she say that ruffled your feathers? I tried to find the article but only found a 'highlights' version.

marry me!

I asked a similar acne question last week, so have a look at my history to see the responses I got.

I misread your comment and thought you said that you never heard anybody say they didn't like shakira, apart from tom hanks. Then I started wondering what tom hanks has against shakira!

Good for you! I definitely need to measure myself, I rarely feel like my bras are properly supporting me. I'm also hating underwired bras, do you know of any brand that does good non underwired ones?

I'm on yasmin. I wonder what my skin would look like if I wasn't on it!

Tried that one too! You're talking about the sulphur one, right? I didn't notice much of a difference sadly.

Thanks for the advice! I'll ask my doctor about getting a new topical, and I think I need one like epiduo with two modes of action. I wish you could get cysts injected with cortisone but that's not available where I am, sadly. I also don't think the dermatologist would see me as bad enough for Accutane, even though I…
