i really wish it felt that way but to be honest right now it feels like there is actually like a big devide between simmers right now its like if anything i feel like the sims 4 is making more and more simmers getting upset with each other rather then coming together.

Hello
This thread is a place where simmers can come and share with each other to support each other as they go through hard times in their lives. Every one is very welcome to share here what they are going through in their lives. To make it a welcome place for all simmers to post here, it would be best not to express your feelings about fellow simmers on this thread.
To other simmers, I know that you will also understand this too, so I would prefer that no more posts about other forum simmers are posted in this thread,
I've been so caught up in my studies that I don't even have the time to play The Sims 4. When I get new TS4 news and announcements about new pack, I feel really bad.
Also, my classmates have been distracting me in all of my classes, but now that new seating charts are distributed, I have to say, I'm much better with it. I still need to talk to one of my teachers about moving me to the front because I can't see very well (and because it's way too noisy in the back).
Hello @Linds_the_kitty .
Sometimes school studies need to be a big part of your life, then later on during breaks from school studies you will be able to catch up on playing sims 4. There will always be time to do some simming when you are less busy with your studies.
It is good that the new seating arrangements are helping you. It is a good idea to talk with your teacher about moving to the front of the room. It will benefit your studies, if it helps you with your sight issues and is more quieter. Perhaps you may also need to see your eye doctor to have an eye check. The strength of your glasses or contact lens may need to be altered.
Sometimes people can be a little different from when you first meet them. It is often good to talk to them and get to know them , and through conversations and spending time with them we discover more about them.
I send hugs to you I continue to keep you in my thoughts.
Right now, the seating charts are not exact yet (so we don't even have new seating arrangements yet),
Yeah, but I find it irritating that they can be the exact opposite of nice. It's like nobody wants to get to know me because I know myself that I'm intimidating and I'm being manipulated by people in Marching Band right now, and it's not fun. I hope the competition goes well tomorrow for me, rather than the first one 2 weeks ago, which was terrifying and agitating. I just have this fear or feeling of being watched 24/7, like everyone's judging me 24/7 because I'm different. I honestly do not know if I have schizophrenia, but I think I identify with a lot of the symptoms, and I know that it's not to do that to myself unless I get properly diagnosed by a doctor, which I would, but I can't find any good doctors around here or know any doctors that can help with this. In fact, I don't even know if I have a mental illness, so sorry to upset anyone who thought I had schizophrenia. It's bad enough to assume that I have it when I can't confirm it. I wish there was some other way to diagnose myself without having to go to the doctor.
Lots on stress is still on me, I've dedicated so much of my time to Marching rehearsals, that I don't even I have time to do homework. Life without a bullet journal and time can be quite frustrating. And then there's conflict with the people surrounding me ⎯ it's just too much. I've began to feel careless about anything anymore.

Hello @Linds_the_kitty
I hope that your Marching Band Competition goes smoothly and well tomorrow. You have now had the first competition a fortnight ago, so you are more prepared about what it involves. The second competition will be better than the first because with the first one everything was new and you may have felt apprehensive before of what would take place. Try to just relax and enjoy the competition and performing.
You are going through a very stressful time of your life. You have school studies to do, homework deadlines to meet, Marching Band rehearsals and competitions to prepare for as well as general day to day pressures. You are also concerned about your mental health. All of this can take its toll on your mental, physical and emotional health. It can affect how you are thinking, and can perhaps cause you to think things that are not what is happening in real life. People are not judging you. People don't find you intimidating and I am sure that there are people that do want to know you. You are just feeling a little tired , stressed and under pressure and that is affecting your thoughts and wearying your mind. It would be be good to go and see your local doctor and he will suggest the best type of specialist doctor that will be the most beneficial for you and your health. Please talk over with him your thoughts that you feel that you have signs of schizophrenia. It will help you to either have this or another mental illness confirmed, and helpful treatment can then be started, and counselling commenced.
I send hugs to you
It totally went better! All the bands did great, and now we have less rehearsals (thank god), so I actually have more time to catch up on everything! Thanks Rosemow!

Hello @Linds_the_kitty
I am so glad that the Competition went well! That is great! I have been thinking of you.
Thankyou for letting us know how it went
I thought I'll let everyone know how I've been doing...
Well middle school has certainly put a toll on me. At the beginning of the year I was in regular math but the guidance conselor contacted my dad (whose the superintendent) asking him if I wanted to move to advanced math. I was excited at first, but social anxiety... grrr. I came to rest as I realized most of them were in Adv Reading with me. My best friend for like forever is moving after Christmas as first I was sad, but she has been taking out all of her negative energy on me. I'm trying to let it slide, but it's not really working. I've had it extremely difficult the last few days as my reading teacher has taken an extreme disliking to me... and of course I'm stuck next to his favorite student who just kisses up the entire time ugh. My favorite teacher who was a long term sub is being replaced... and he'll be moved to the other middle school. Well maybe the next 9 weeks could get better or... most likely not

Hello @MarkHarris17
Thankyou for letting us know how you have been going. It is hard when you are a listening ear to your best friend, and are supporting her through all that her life is holding, and are needing to absorb the negativeness that she is feeling. You are very caring and kind. I am sorry that you are having issues with your reading teacher. Perhaps as the days go on , things may settle down again.
Try just to take a day by day at a time. Make time for yourself away from your studies to enjoy doing things that you enjoy doing yourself. There willl be good school days, then other days your time at school may not go as well. Through it all you are learning new things through your studies that will equip you for your future ahead.
Sending a hug to you

I'm so sorry that middle school is not going the way you'd like it to, that's just the way it is.
Ahhh, middle school for me was very stressful for me (and my mental health).
Take it easy day by day, as rosemow said.
It can be nerve-wracking going to a higher-placement class, new classmates, etc. and I understand where you're coming from..... but it came to the conclusion that you were worried for nothing!
Even some of my classmates that I knew since middle school are in my classes, so it makes it a bit more comfortable position to be in with the people you know.
In my opinion, I think your best friend moving is maybe for the best, maybe for both of you, even. You've lended a hand, a shoulder, an ear to listen to her troubles... but sometimes you just can't be around that negativity, and yoy just need to let go. Sometimes change is good. I was once that friend (I think I still am) or person to tell someone something that's been bothering the whole day, or just in general, and I remember last year when I just ranted to my friend who I've known since elementary school, and she did nothing but be supportive of me, until we went our separate ways.... Change is for the better good. We're ok now, and we still keep in touch. I was a bit frustrated in the beginning of this summer when she stopped texting, but sometimes they come back. So maybe keep in touch with her?
Ahhh, maybe try to talk to your reading teacher more? I know that sounds confusing, but I like communicating with my teachers, like letting them know how your day's been going, stuff like that, and I do that to let them know that I'm at least nice and not a kisser like those students, ugh. Maybe like thank him for this and that like giving out tests or your homework back, etc.
Ahhh, I hate it when students are like that. Most of the time I just think they like to talk a lot and are extroverts, or they might be just doing it out of pure generosity, or doing it to get better grades, lol (they won't)
Sometimes I don't even notice it. Like, I just don't mind for how my classmates act, I just let them be whoever they want to be, whether it be to classmates or teachers. And some of them are doing that to be nice, maybe (?) But in terms, it can make you think that they're trying to be the teacher's pet? Maybe ask your teacher to put you in a different seat, or arrange for different seats now and then (like seating charts)? I'm asking nearly half of my teachers for that because my classmates distract me so much from my work, and I understand. They just don't cut it for me. Tell your teacher that it's bothering you!!!! If you are honest to them, then they'll understand where you're coming from! Just tell your teacher it's bothering you! (and this also goes for the communicating part I was talking about) And they'll listen to you or hear your opinion of that student and tell you not to worry about them. I tell my teachers every time something bothers me in class and I let them know and they're aware of things. They won't know you feel that way unless you tell them. Buttttt...... if you don't wanna do all of this in person, you can always email them about these things.
As I said, your long term sub going to the other middle school is probably for the better good. Maybe you'll see him again, who knows.
I hope the rest of your school year will go well. My school year's not going well either, so I can relate.
It's 3:00 AM. I should probably be going to sleep now, lol. Rip me and mental health.
This is really difficult for me to write this, because I just feel as if I'm confirming all the issues that I have right now. I've been trying to plan this post for months, and I've even considered asking Drake for a temporary account to post this in order to disconnect these issues from my account, but I've decided that I need to post this as soon as possible, so here I am.
I also want to preface this by saying that this thread is the only source of advice I can possibly get right now, as I have no access to a doctor or counsellor (seriously hate writing this). I've tried talking to my teachers, but they are phenomenally trigger-happy about notifying my family. This is an issue because most of this problem is something that the members of my family would take issue with (and I DO know this because my older sister had part of this issue, and my family practically shunned her). Therefore, I don't see anyone to talk to in real-life about this, so I'd much, much prefer to take advice from the lovely people in this thread.
I've recently met someone (about 6 weeks ago). He is absolutely wonderful. He is simply perfect.... and this is where the issue stems from. I've (reluctantly) fallen in love with him. Unfortunately, his perfection means that everyone else is begging to be his friend (luckily though, no-one else is lovestruck in same way I am). He is incredibly popular with pretty much everyone. It isn't him that's the issue, but instead it's the situation I've found him in. This means that I cannot reach him. Even IF I changed who I was in order to try and get closer to him, nothing meaningful would ever happen because of a reason that I'm not prepared to write down, so you'll have to work this out yourself from this hint: "him"
But it's more than just a love. In the first two weeks of meeting him, I never spoke to him, yet I found out his middle name, his date of birth (one day before mine ), his moral and political opinions, his place of birth, the location of his family (he's in boarding), the genealogy of his family, the languages he speaks, the classes he takes and his IQ. After sending him a secret note telling him nothing more than his middle name, I overheard him speaking about the note and, in his own words, "I've got a stalker". So in his opinion, a small fraction of what I've done is enough to be "stalking". What does that make the rest of it?
I've already scratched his name onto my left arm, and his initials on my right. Of course, I let that heal pretty quickly after realising people would see it very easily.
Basically, I'm an obsessive lovestruck stalker.

Hello @Swiftlover13
Try starting to get to know him as a friend. Start talking over with him common interests that you know that you both are interested in, and then go from there. You know him from afar, but take the opportunity now to just start talking as acquaintances then that can lead to friendships. You can know about someone, but you need to get to know someone by just casually spending time,as friends.
Try taking small steps and see where they lead.
Every step you take is a part of your life. You will have many types of relationships in your life. Friendships, acqaintances, family members, one day a partner, they are all special .
You are working through how you are feeling. It involves deep thinking and reflection. It can take time to work through these things. You know yourself how you feel deep down inside. Take life gently. Work out what is true to yourself. When the time is right, talk it over with your family. You will know deep down inside you when that time is right.
Keep remembering that you are special. You are a unique person of much worth, just as everyone else is uniquely special also.
Work through how you feel and be true to yourself
I just saw this thread, anyway I am doing relatively good myself considering what I have gone through... I lost my mom just a few years back to suicide I was there, it messed me up pretty bad she was and still is like my best friend. All I have is pretty much me, my toddler, and my hubby, and our pets, we don't have anything to do with our immediate family basically since they don't like our marriage don't ask me why because I really have no clue. :P I think I am making it great though, I have my own little farm; chickens, ducks, geese, guinea fowl, turkeys, you name it, a rabbit, a snake, a turtle, an amazon bird, a macaw, a dog, and two cats, I just got a mini horse today so that's pretty exciting!
Anyway I hope everyone can find a way through their problems, I think for me my hubby and toddie and our pets have helped me cope significantly.

My brother is getting married this month. It hasn't been easy because my mom wants to take control of the wedding and it upsets my brother's fiancee sometimes. Sometimes it is hard being a mediator and trying to keep peace among everyone. I'm realizing I try to be a mediator sometimes on forums too. It does tire me out handling stress especially with my existing health problems. It's hard because I'm the type of person who just wants everyone to get along and when people don't it upsets me. But it is like I don't know if I'm really bad at it or just exhausted from it and need another vacation. I did go to one of my favorite bookstores that is like four stories and that was relaxing.
It is kind of stressful too because at the job I'm working at now, it is a temp to hire, but only 3-4 out of the 20 will get hired, so I'm trying my best with that too and meeting the required keys per hour. It has been my favorite job I've worked at this year so I'm uncertain if this is my last week or not. Then I'm dealing with feelings towards someone too. I guess I'm just going through a lot right now and adulting can be tough sometimes. The usual fibro flare ups and trying not to catch the cold everyone has right now I'm keeping an eye on too.

Hello @Scobre
You are going through a very stressful time with many pressures on you in the different areas of your life. Weddings can be very stressful for all involved in them. They are very special times, and at the same time because everyone wants it to be as best as possible and go smoothly, it can cause strain at times. It is hard on you that you are in the middle, trying to help everyone and to resolve issues that arise. You are a very caring and kind person. You feel for others and want the best for them. You empathise with how people are feeling and don't want your family to be in conflict.
It is good that you took the time to visit the bookstore and enjoy some time renewing your mind and body as you relaxed as you looked at the books. Try keeping on doing that at times. Take time out for breaks for yourself.
Take day by day in all that your life is holding.
I send hugs to you as you endure through your health issues It is not nice that you have pain, and need to cope with the effects on your body.
Work pressures are stressful. It would be weighing on your mind, if you will be one of those who receive employment at the end of the current time as a temp. It will be good for you to soon hear whether you will be offered a permanent position. The uncertainty can bring pressures and strain to your mind and body .
I send more hugs to you I hope that you receive good news about your job, as well as I hope that the weddings goes smoothly and very well.
Thank you @rosemow. I hope all is well for you too. I did get a vintage dress and shoes for the wedding, so yes it will be an exciting time. Somehow it will come together. My family and I know a lot of people so it can be challenging to keep it under 100 too.

am i really that unique of a problem that i need to be singled out for constantly causing drama. look truth is i think differently then most people and maybe i should be baned for that should i also be locked up or something more extreme where do we draw the line this was supposed to be safe spot where i thought i could say things but obviously i missunderstood and i have no idea if this little outbirst is crossing the line or not but maybe i need profesional help then if it is and no one else is crossing the line like this for the record this me venting and yes i know you are probably going to tell me well we can let that silde but truth is its not fair why can everyone else follow the rules and i cant i mean i do not understand and like i said i clearly need help in this yes i get it the rules are in place for a reason but i do need a place to vent and i figured maybe i could here idk and i am sorry if this outrage broke the rules but i am clearly upset not at being told i broke the rules or whatever but just in general and finding out i broke the rules was the caltaulst for how i felt/feel but maybe it was not best for me to be here right maybe i should have been talking to a friend/family member/profersional or been alone with music or some other consturtive way for me to deal with this buildup! like i said i am sorry if i just offended you or upset you or crossed the line or broke the rules or was rude or whatever i just needed to vent. and maybe i should have not even written this up since writting this up alone made me feel better i mean like i said i could be breaking the rules but then i think a part of me wants attention too and this is a good way for attention and now i am just writting the first things that come to mind cuz i am not sure if i will post this or if i should because like i said you could be understanding or i could be breaking rules and or offendeing someone i have no idea but oh well i enjoy taking risking and being stupid and defying authorty or at least testing them and seeing what happens truth is i dont see what the worst that will happen is cuz i do want to get out a bit how my mindset is too cuz wirting this is an interesting way to show how my mindset works it feels more like my mind is now in control and i have no idea when to stop idk its complicated mabye you can make sense of it like i said idk what will happen thanks for reading at the very least and again sorry if negative stuff happens i really am seriously but a part of me feels like i cant help myself i care but i actually can not stop myself if there is something negative that will happen so again i am sorry and please do not say yes you can not my situation my mind has completely taken over this and is trying idk its complicated its like i have lost control and my mind is reacting on insistact or something and wrirting the first thing that comes to my mind so yeah again its like i am on autopoilot and i can not stop until i finsish what i have to say and explain myself and post this and yeah i think i am done now
Hello @brendhan21
You sound like you are under strain in your life and are very tired. Sometimes our minds can wander and feel a little confused when we are tired and lacking in sleep, or feel a little burdened by life. Life can sometimes feel a little overwhelming, and that can affect how we are thinking. Our physical, mental and emotional health interconnect and affect each other. Try getting some sleep. Sleeping will renew your mind and body. Then after having a sleep, go and spend some time with family and friends. If you have concerns or anxieties, talk them over with them. Talking things through with your family will allow them the opportunity to support you as they become more aware of how you are feeling. It would be beneficial also for your mental health to talk over how you are feeling with your doctor. He or she will caringly listen and offer help suited to your situation. It also gives you an opportunity to face to face discuss matters that are weighing on your mind.
I send a hug to you and really hope that you can have the peace in your mind that deep down you need.
Well the good news is my temperature was normal today. I'm better than I have been so I'm hoping to feel 100% soon.
Hello @wolfkomoki1
It is great that your temperature is normal today. A raised temperature can cause you to feel quite ill. I am glad that you are feeling better than you were. I hope that your health continues to improve day by day
Sending a hug to you

Right now, the seating charts are not exact yet (so we don't even have new seating arrangements yet),
Yeah, but I find it irritating that they can be the exact opposite of nice. It's like nobody wants to get to know me because I know myself that I'm intimidating and I'm being manipulated by people in Marching Band right now, and it's not fun. I hope the competition goes well tomorrow for me, rather than the first one 2 weeks ago, which was terrifying and agitating. I just have this fear or feeling of being watched 24/7, like everyone's judging me 24/7 because I'm different. I honestly do not know if I have schizophrenia, but I think I identify with a lot of the symptoms, and I know that it's not to do that to myself unless I get properly diagnosed by a doctor, which I would, but I can't find any good doctors around here or know any doctors that can help with this. In fact, I don't even know if I have a mental illness, so sorry to upset anyone who thought I had schizophrenia. It's bad enough to assume that I have it when I can't confirm it. I wish there was some other way to diagnose myself without having to go to the doctor.
Lots on stress is still on me, I've dedicated so much of my time to Marching rehearsals, that I don't even I have time to do homework. Life without a bullet journal and time can be quite frustrating. And then there's conflict with the people surrounding me ⎯ it's just too much. I've began to feel careless about anything anymore.
Hello @Linds_the_kitty
I hope that your Marching Band Competition goes smoothly and well tomorrow. You have now had the first competition a fortnight ago, so you are more prepared about what it involves. The second competition will be better than the first because with the first one everything was new and you may have felt apprehensive before of what would take place. Try to just relax and enjoy the competition and performing.
You are going through a very stressful time of your life. You have school studies to do, homework deadlines to meet, Marching Band rehearsals and competitions to prepare for as well as general day to day pressures. You are also concerned about your mental health. All of this can take its toll on your mental, physical and emotional health. It can affect how you are thinking, and can perhaps cause you to think things that are not what is happening in real life. People are not judging you. People don't find you intimidating and I am sure that there are people that do want to know you. You are just feeling a little tired , stressed and under pressure and that is affecting your thoughts and wearying your mind. It would be be good to go and see your local doctor and he will suggest the best type of specialist doctor that will be the most beneficial for you and your health. Please talk over with him your thoughts that you feel that you have signs of schizophrenia. It will help you to either have this or another mental illness confirmed, and helpful treatment can then be started, and counselling commenced.
I send hugs to you

Well middle school has certainly put a toll on me. At the beginning of the year I was in regular math but the guidance conselor contacted my dad (whose the superintendent) asking him if I wanted to move to advanced math. I was excited at first, but social anxiety... grrr. I came to rest as I realized most of them were in Adv Reading with me. My best friend for like forever is moving after Christmas as first I was sad, but she has been taking out all of her negative energy on me. I'm trying to let it slide, but it's not really working. I've had it extremely difficult the last few days as my reading teacher has taken an extreme disliking to me... and of course I'm stuck next to his favorite student who just kisses up the entire time ugh. My favorite teacher who was a long term sub is being replaced... and he'll be moved to the other middle school. Well maybe the next 9 weeks could get better or... most likely not

Hello @MarkHarris17
Thankyou for letting us know how you have been going. It is hard when you are a listening ear to your best friend, and are supporting her through all that her life is holding, and are needing to absorb the negativeness that she is feeling. You are very caring and kind. I am sorry that you are having issues with your reading teacher. Perhaps as the days go on , things may settle down again.
Try just to take a day by day at a time. Make time for yourself away from your studies to enjoy doing things that you enjoy doing yourself. There willl be good school days, then other days your time at school may not go as well. Through it all you are learning new things through your studies that will equip you for your future ahead.
Sending a hug to you

@MarkHarris17
I'm so sorry that middle school is not going the way you'd like it to, that's just the way it is.
Ahhh, middle school for me was very stressful for me (and my mental health).
Take it easy day by day, as rosemow said.
It can be nerve-wracking going to a higher-placement class, new classmates, etc. and I understand where you're coming from..... but it came to the conclusion that you were worried for nothing!
Even some of my classmates that I knew since middle school are in my classes, so it makes it a bit more comfortable position to be in with the people you know.
In my opinion, I think your best friend moving is maybe for the best, maybe for both of you, even. You've lended a hand, a shoulder, an ear to listen to her troubles... but sometimes you just can't be around that negativity, and yoy just need to let go. Sometimes change is good. I was once that friend (I think I still am) or person to tell someone something that's been bothering the whole day, or just in general, and I remember last year when I just ranted to my friend who I've known since elementary school, and she did nothing but be supportive of me, until we went our separate ways.... Change is for the better good. We're ok now, and we still keep in touch. I was a bit frustrated in the beginning of this summer when she stopped texting, but sometimes they come back. So maybe keep in touch with her?
Ahhh, maybe try to talk to your reading teacher more? I know that sounds confusing, but I like communicating with my teachers, like letting them know how your day's been going, stuff like that, and I do that to let them know that I'm at least nice and not a kisser like those students, ugh. Maybe like thank him for this and that like giving out tests or your homework back, etc.
Ahhh, I hate it when students are like that. Most of the time I just think they like to talk a lot and are extroverts, or they might be just doing it out of pure generosity, or doing it to get better grades, lol (they won't)
Sometimes I don't even notice it. Like, I just don't mind for how my classmates act, I just let them be whoever they want to be, whether it be to classmates or teachers. And some of them are doing that to be nice, maybe (?) But in terms, it can make you think that they're trying to be the teacher's pet? Maybe ask your teacher to put you in a different seat, or arrange for different seats now and then (like seating charts)? I'm asking nearly half of my teachers for that because my classmates distract me so much from my work, and I understand. They just don't cut it for me. Tell your teacher that it's bothering you!!!! If you are honest to them, then they'll understand where you're coming from! Just tell your teacher it's bothering you! (and this also goes for the communicating part I was talking about) And they'll listen to you or hear your opinion of that student and tell you not to worry about them. I tell my teachers every time something bothers me in class and I let them know and they're aware of things. They won't know you feel that way unless you tell them. Buttttt...... if you don't wanna do all of this in person, you can always email them about these things.
As I said, your long term sub going to the other middle school is probably for the better good. Maybe you'll see him again, who knows.
I hope the rest of your school year will go well. My school year's not going well either, so I can relate.
It's 3:00 AM. I should probably be going to sleep now, lol. Rip me and mental health.
I also want to preface this by saying that this thread is the only source of advice I can possibly get right now, as I have no access to a doctor or counsellor (seriously hate writing this). I've tried talking to my teachers, but they are phenomenally trigger-happy about notifying my family. This is an issue because most of this problem is something that the members of my family would take issue with (and I DO know this because my older sister had part of this issue, and my family practically shunned her). Therefore, I don't see anyone to talk to in real-life about this, so I'd much, much prefer to take advice from the lovely people in this thread.
I've recently met someone (about 6 weeks ago). He is absolutely wonderful. He is simply perfect.... and this is where the issue stems from. I've (reluctantly) fallen in love with him. Unfortunately, his perfection means that everyone else is begging to be his friend (luckily though, no-one else is lovestruck in same way I am). He is incredibly popular with pretty much everyone. It isn't him that's the issue, but instead it's the situation I've found him in. This means that I cannot reach him. Even IF I changed who I was in order to try and get closer to him, nothing meaningful would ever happen because of a reason that I'm not prepared to write down, so you'll have to work this out yourself from this hint: "him"
But it's more than just a love. In the first two weeks of meeting him, I never spoke to him, yet I found out his middle name, his date of birth (one day before mine
I've already scratched his name onto my left arm, and his initials on my right. Of course, I let that heal pretty quickly after realising people would see it very easily.
Basically, I'm an obsessive lovestruck stalker.
Hello @Swiftlover13
Try starting to get to know him as a friend. Start talking over with him common interests that you know that you both are interested in, and then go from there. You know him from afar, but take the opportunity now to just start talking as acquaintances then that can lead to friendships. You can know about someone, but you need to get to know someone by just casually spending time,as friends.
Try taking small steps and see where they lead.
Every step you take is a part of your life. You will have many types of relationships in your life. Friendships, acqaintances, family members, one day a partner, they are all special .
You are working through how you are feeling. It involves deep thinking and reflection. It can take time to work through these things. You know yourself how you feel deep down inside. Take life gently. Work out what is true to yourself. When the time is right, talk it over with your family. You will know deep down inside you when that time is right.
Keep remembering that you are special. You are a unique person of much worth, just as everyone else is uniquely special also.
Work through how you feel and be true to yourself

Thank you, I truly believe that
It is kind of stressful too because at the job I'm working at now, it is a temp to hire, but only 3-4 out of the 20 will get hired, so I'm trying my best with that too and meeting the required keys per hour. It has been my favorite job I've worked at this year so I'm uncertain if this is my last week or not. Then I'm dealing with feelings towards someone too. I guess I'm just going through a lot right now and adulting can be tough sometimes. The usual fibro flare ups and trying not to catch the cold everyone has right now I'm keeping an eye on too.
Hello @Scobre
You are going through a very stressful time with many pressures on you in the different areas of your life. Weddings can be very stressful for all involved in them. They are very special times, and at the same time because everyone wants it to be as best as possible and go smoothly, it can cause strain at times. It is hard on you that you are in the middle, trying to help everyone and to resolve issues that arise. You are a very caring and kind person. You feel for others and want the best for them. You empathise with how people are feeling and don't want your family to be in conflict.
It is good that you took the time to visit the bookstore and enjoy some time renewing your mind and body as you relaxed as you looked at the books. Try keeping on doing that at times. Take time out for breaks for yourself.
Take day by day in all that your life is holding.
I send hugs to you as you endure through your health issues
Work pressures are stressful. It would be weighing on your mind, if you will be one of those who receive employment at the end of the current time as a temp. It will be good for you to soon hear whether you will be offered a permanent position. The uncertainty can bring pressures and strain to your mind and body .
I send more hugs to you
