Re: Not Coping
I feel in it's simplest terms crying with someone present encourages connection, while crying on your own would be seeking comfort. @Birdofparadise8

Re: Not Coping
I just find it weird I would go see someone just to sit and cry. I'm not close to that yet. I just get very anxious when he offers validation. I wish I could accept it. That's what I'm going there for @Blackbird11

Re: Not Coping
Why do I always jump when I see someone I didn't think would be there?
I opened my door to a guy walking by, and I jumped. He knew it, and I knew it. I do it all the time if someone is in the elevator or the bathroom. I don't know why I get so jumpy. I can't seem to stop myself.

Re: Not Coping
Hi @Snowie
Thank you. I hope you have a good day too.
I'm just working on some uni content, and then I'll head to the gym.
What are you up to today?

Re: Not Coping
Gym sounds good @Birdofparadise8
Is it on campus?
Not up to a lot. Went up the supermarket this morning and got a few things. Deciding if the weather will hold of for me to take the dog for a walk.

Re: Not Coping
Nah, it's two train stops away and about a five ish minute walk @Snowie.
Yeah, it's very grey and cloudy. I do hope it does. It's not a very good way to start summer soon.

Re: Not Coping
It's good that you can find the motivation to go to the gym @Birdofparadise8
Hopefully it keeps your mind and body busy for awhile.

Re: Not Coping
Yes I seem to have a little more motivation than a few days ago, so that's a good thing @Snowie
