Wow how awful. I'm sorry you had to deal with that!

It was awful. We ended up getting a lawyer involved and the amount the company owed was reduced and we paid it off. Bad accounting people -.-

Aww well I'm glad you were able to get it sorted! I can't believe you got dragged into it if it was the company's fault. Sounds like a nightmare.

How are you doing today btw? I'm feeling SUPER unfocused... there's like a million things I could be doing but I can't commit myself to doing any of them.

All I can say is better than yesterday lol! I have been super tired last few days DX Your ha is awesome btw :D

aww thank you!! I've been super tired too lately... I don't really know what to do, it's awful :(

It was funny this morning I said I could use 15 more minutes and my husband thought the second alarm hadn't gone off and he could have 15 more. He was sadly mistaken. On the weekends I can sleep in super late

i'll need to look into it. i was on amitryptiline for a while, but it did absolutely nothing for me, so i had to change.

I hope those new meds work really well, then! I feel like I missed your post earlier, but now today, all of the pings that I've gotten seem to have come back, so I spotted your message this time... :P But I KNOW I cleared a bunch of the pings that showed up today... Tons of customwear pings and such. Hope that means there wasn't a rollback or something, because I wouldn't have a clue what else I did that day!

- Also look into your insulin levels... High levels can make you gain weight. For some reason, I ended up with prediabetes while on the Amitryptiline, which made me gain weight even after I stopped the pills. I had to take Metformin for a few months before my insulin levels dropped back to normal.

I've been off the Metformin since December, and I still am losing weight, though slowly.

i'm sure they've checked all these things before and come up with nothing... but i will ask next time I'm in :D thanks!

Hello group... I'm reaching out for some support - I feel really alone right now to be completely honest, I don't have anyone IRL (bf is at school and bestie is also at school and never has time for me anymore...)

I'm SUPER drowsy, I have a pot of coffee made but I keep yawning, I don't know if it will even help to drink it. I could not sleep all night, which is why I'm so drowsy now. I don't know why my body does that. My body had all night to sleep, and just would not fall asleep. But now that it's time to be awake, I'm so drowsy I don't know what to do.

I have to work though... Sleeping right now isn't really an option, I've been anxious about my performance at work and I just need to keep pushing myself however hard it is >_<

I feel selfish for pinging the group... but I feel weak right now and so alone. I just want some support, some motivation, I guess. Someone to talk to today to help me get myself to pour the coffee and finally start work. I've been very inconsistent at work because of my disability and I'm afraid of losing the job, of not doing enough... I don't want to lose my job. I feel ashamed, I feel hopeless, I just... I'm sorry for the vent. I know it probably doesn't even seem like a big deal.. I'm sorry for whining, I'm trying to hold it together today and I'm not doing that well.

I used to take medication when I have trouble falling asleep, during the winter break, now that my sleep cycle goes back to normal I stop taking it. I drank milk instead as I was told to help me settle/relax (not that I was anxious) but the milk just helps me fall asleep :) Hope the method works for you, then you'll be energetic after good nights of sleep!

If you ever need to talk let me know!! I am on here all the time :P

I'm really sorry yet I know how you feel, been through similar things. My body is not reacting much lately too and I have to push myself to work. I have a tiredness that I can't even keep my eyes open, when I get home I have to take a nap or I can't move on. I'm taking medication for the condition, but it frustrates me a lot since I want to be more useful. Also loneliness is an old friend, all my friends moved away and I only have my sister so I know it's hard. I've learn to live this way and I don't feel sad for being alone as much as I used to but the tiredness really upsets me. Still I push myself and do my things, go to workout even if I feel like sleeping otherwise I would sleep all day. Never give up and always always stay positive, don't repeat negative things to yourself, your mind is powerful and can make your thoughts real so keep thinking positive!!! Stay strong!

Aw, Bug, so sorry!!! I hope you're feeling better now... :( That stinks when you have no willpower, but I know you can do it! Pour that coffee, it will help! And tonight, try out some stuff to help you sleep... When my husband can't sleep, I make him get up and go have a hot beverage... Chamomile tea, or some calming tea mix he has (beruhigen tea), or a hot chocolate, or horlix or such... Warm milk.... Something caffeine-less and calming... We also make a point of turning our cell phone screens dim when it gets close to bedtime, and dimming the lights, too, or using a blue setting instead of a white or pink light... That seems to help.

If you really can't sleep, have you ever tried the 4-7-8 thing? It's a rhythmic breathing thing that is supposed to help. Doesn't work for me, because I always forget the numbers and confuse myself, so I give up after just a round or two, and long before the first minute is up, but supposedly if you do it right, it'll get you to sleep within a minute...

- You're not weak for reaching out for help... it takes a lot of strength to reach out. No matter how much your mind wants to tell you you're not good enough, remember that it's not true. Keep pushing forward no matter what, and you'll succeed. c: Just remember to take breaks and not overwork yourself.

Something to elaborate on what said, dimming screens on electronics does help a lot. As someone who can sleep easily, bright lights can keep me up nearly all night. I use an app called f.lux to make my laptop's lights warmer at night.

what is cool whip?! All I know of it is the Family Guy episode where Stewie keeps saying it weird XD!!

you need to be getting more vitamin C in you to boost that immune system ;-;! have you seen a doctor?

but are you the same size? you could be converting fat to muscle and although the scale isnt changing at all, you could be getting leaner :D! Ooo laser lipo :o!!! Is it painful? did they say how it helps? I wish I could get lipo! I totally understand your problem! I cant seem to lose any weight no matter what I do, Ive hit a plateu and its so frustrating and depressing

the easter bunny? :o! We have that hear but were the same in the fact its mainly for kids, I dont really do much at Easter except eat chocolate :')! I was working this year :(!

what dates in December :D? I could look into going over! London is so expensive though so I dunno if I'll be able to afford it ;--;

haha I wont scold you at all :D! What on earth is this taxes thing you Americans do XD?! Doesnt the government just take taxes out of your monthly wage?

text your bestie and try to get them to make time for you ❤️!!!

How are you feeling now? It sounds like you had a sucky day! Did you get your work done? Im sure you wont lose your job as long as you do satisfactory work and if your boss has had no complaints then your work must be satisfactory ❤️! what disability do you have if you dont mind me asking (if you do no big deal!)? I used to be terrified in work as it involves a lot of numbers and I never disclosed my learning disability (I have dyscalculia) but the people in work that do know understand what to look out for to make sure Im doing everything ok etc. Sometimes its best to ask for support from your colleagues :D!

and don't feel selfish for pinging the group! Thats the whole point of the group :D

omg that sounds freaking amazing :O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am incredibly jealous!!!! I so want the bunnies ;-;!!!!! How is your kitty after her cone?

LOL! That is all I can think of when I talk about it XD Its like whipped cream I guess but idk better XD It usually comes in a big tub I could eat the whole tub to tell you the truth

laser lipo is like non invasive lipo. so they use sounds waves to break up the fat cells then laser to melt the fat, and finally a thing that helps tighten the skin so that you don't end up with flabby skin from the weight loss. i lost about 2 inches with it, after 3 sessions. luckily i got a groupon deal for it, i paid £49 for 3 sessions normally it costs £350. so i definitely cant afford it long term, but it was wroth trying.

also, cool whip used to be available in the UK years ago, as Dream whip i think. it was amazing! it's like a mix between cream and ice cream, it was perfect with desserts. i miss that.

- I think it's a combination of a weak immune system, lots of stress, and a bad living environment (like my room is gross and possibly moldy). I've been drinking more orange juice to raise my vitamin C levels. To be fair, I do get sick a lot. But, 3 times within 2 months is excessive.

I think my "cure" is to move out of the parents' house. Or at least moving out of this house, which is happening no mater what next month. Living here is the cause of the majority of my stress. If I notice I'm still getting sick frequently, then I would probably see a doctor.

Cool Whip is essentially thicker whipped cream. It's usually paired with pies. I can't stand the stuff though... it's way too sweet.
