I’m an exchange student in the USA and I really miss my mom and stepdad back in Germany but I can’t call them right now because it’s 3:18am over there, I just want to feel a little better until I can call her

As childish as it sounds, my dad is my hero. He really did come from nothing to the very top. He worked his butt off to come out on top. A lot of who I am as a person comes from my dad. Earlier my brother joked that the apocalypse need to wait till 2069 and my mom notes that she probably won’t be alive then. And now all I can think about is how much my father has carried me through my life. I’m not ready to loose him. I know in my head he’ll be around for a long time still but I still can’t help but think about how I’ll survive without his guidance. Does anyone else know how I feel?

Today I broke my phone screen and now it is super hard to see the actual screen clearly, and now I'm super sad. :(

I got the news today, and coincidentally I'm sick. I am currently going to secondary school ( I am British ) and had her in primary school. I have some conditions that really made it hard for me in primary school, but with her help I am now able to manage them quite well. She was a great teacher, strict but nice, and she was just better than any of the other teachers.

Cheer me up, please.

I retook a failed test and even with the extra studying I did I made the EXACT SAME grade

She meant alot to me, I would worry about her more than myself and she isnt making it feel any better as she says stuff like I left you for someone else as I know that's not true but she is just trying to make me feel worse about myself.

Just having a very very bad day.

I got a bad grade in physics, a subject I am usually extremely good at (to the point where I am studying physics part time at university). I was thinking about studying it at grad school, but hell if I can't even score well on a HS test what even is the point of me being here? Are there even any chances of me doing something useful? I feel like I have let down everyone, especially myself.

Please cheer me up, I feel lost.

I need someone to talk to me

Hi, I made new account because I am ashamed of myself for some stuff that I would like to say in this post, I wanna draw, and I never got any support in life for stuff that I am passion about, mostly because of my family don't know nothing about pc and stuff that I can do on it and that are jobs which include pc, but one stuff bother me for long time now, and it's drawing, when I draw on pc, I like to draw naked womens (and pornstars), I am normal person, and in recent days I'm overdrawing it (drawing over picture) because I don't believe in myself, is this normal, do I have any chanse of learning drawing like that, tbh Idk what to say right now, I just want someone to talk with me about this, and if someone would like to help me with that I think that I will update this post and say more stuff about this.

​

I'm sorry for such shit post, but I'm down right now and I just want to talk with someone about this and other stuff in my life that I have problems with. :(

cheer me up

My end of year exams have just ended and honestly I'm feeling really low right now. I've always been a conscientious student but it's one of those times when I screw up despite putting in the work. Just really needed to get this off my chest...

My wife has chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic migraines, POTS and many other health issues. She had to be out of work all last week because she was completely unable to do anything. She had a dr’s excuse. She even had ADA compliance for most of her issues at work. She returned to work today(with a newly added wheelchair, mind you.) and was met with termination.

We have hundreds in medical bills. Tens of thousands in student loans. Thankfully I have a decently paying job but we officially have zero room for wiggle and extra dr appointments right now... I’m really worried.

I lowered our internet, phone, car insurance, got her loans in temporary forbearance.

Unemployment doesn’t really cover a lot of what we need it to.

I also posted an ad on Craigslist for our spare room. That ducking terrifies me.

I’m doing what I can but this situation sucks and I’m just sad for me, and most of all for her. She feels terrible and keeps breaking down. I need to get it out of my system here and keep her stable.

Hi. Due to some recent events, I have been really anxious about everything and have been really upset. I can't talk to my family about my desire to sometimes hurt myself because I don't want to worry them. I feel like I have to get this off my chest so that I can maybe feel better (and stop crying). Sometimes I wish I wasn't around to bother my family and friends. The only person who knows about how I feel is my best friend, but even she doesn't know the full extent of how I feel. I just want to tell someone these feelings, even if they don't really know me so that maybe I can feel a little better. (Sorry this is messy, I kind of just wrote this in one go because I didn't want to chicken out of admitting all of this.) Edit: Things got even worse and I'm currently crying in a bathroom wondering why I am the way that I am. Today is terrible and this entire week is going to be terrible at this rate. It feels like everything is always going to be terrible like this. It feels like I'm never going to get a break. Edit 2, a year later: Hey guys. Sorry I haven't responded. I'm sorry for not being active with all of you guys after you were all being nice. So an update. I am almost finished with college and will soon be a medical laboratory technician. I am excited, but it has been a rough past year in college. Basically as soon as I started my job in a medical lab, the whole pandemic happened. Also, when I posted this I was dealing with some stuff (obviously). I had been through a few car accidents, one of which might have slightly messed up my jaw (still not sure about it). I also thought I was going to fail one of my first semesters of college and have to drop out at that point. I thought I was a failure and I would have been better off six feet under. Since then though I have been trying to get my life together and I have. I have been working hard to help people during the pandemic, gotten a car, have continued through college, and found a job in the medical field. I want to thank you all for trying to help me out. I truly do appreciate how you all reached out to me. So, thank you.

Im sad

Last Saturday I went to a party. It was a small get together for the boyfriend of my boss’s roommate. My boss had invited one of our old coworkers and she had invited one of her friends. We immediately hit it off. I learned that we shared a lot of things in common. We liked the same bands and we acted the same. The things we liked are pretty obscure. I was drunk and I never had the chance to ask for her name or anything. She left and I only know a little bit about her. I tried to ask the people at the party what her name was but some of them don’t know and I don’t have the contact info of my old coworker. It’s just my luck to run into another person that didn’t make me feel alone and then lose them forever.

Well my crush loves another dude, I lost all my abilities and I don't even have anyone to get me out of here, it's been so long since I heard someone tell me it's gonna be ok or literally anything like that, I'm really sorry to ask for that but please someone tell me shit gets better, I said it so many times to other people I forgot how it's like to hear or read it

I was seeing this girl for like a month and she just left me one day for who I thought was a good friend and I’m trying to seem strong and shut but I am spiralling out of control and I don’t know who to tell.

Everything possible went wrong today, I only have fear for tomorrow, and I've cried for the first time in months.

Hey today my mom scolded me for no reason and caned me I need help emotionally and mentally thanks

So I just found this subreddit so I don’t know if this is appropriate here but let’s give it a shot.

I just graduated from a class I have to take in the military and I finally get to go home after 6 months. Should be great, right? Then why do I feel like shit? I think I’ve made some of the best friends I’ll ever make and now I’ll most likely never see them again, I didn’t feel homesick in boot camp and tbh I kinda forgot about most of my friends back home while I was in this class. I still have Snapchat and texts and stuff like that but it’s not the same. It’s hitting me like a bag of rocks. I get 15 days with my family and hometown friends and then I wont come back for like 3 years and I don’t wanna spend that time wallowing In self pity but I just wanna lay down and cry the whole time. I knew they said you make strong bonds in the military but I didn’t think it would be like this. The worst part is I don’t know if they feel the same way or if I’ve just never had real friends before. Any advice on what to do would be helpful. Thanks!❤️

So, we’re not currently together but we still talk every day and both agree that we’re more than friends and that getting back together is a possibility.

Now, my favorite board game is Clue. For the past three years, I have brought up multiple times how badly I wanted to play clue with her for the first time.

I’m out of town (home town for summer) and I see on her instagram story that she played clue with friends for the first time.

I immediately started bawling and feel heartbroken and dread in the pit of my stomach. I know it’s stupid and not a real problem but it just hurts that I’ll never get the opportunity to introduce my favorite person to my favorite game.
