Title: Life sucks *trig
Post by: 5u2 on February 21, 2015, 09:58:18 PM
So.
My ex boyfriend's new girlfriend is currently giving birth to their child.
I've just been dumped.
And diagnosed with epilepsy.
I'm having to take a break from studies until the seizures stop.
I haven't hung around with any of my friends in months as I don't want to have seizures in front of them.
I lost my job because I had several seizures at work.
I have no money, no boyfriend and I am somehow trying to afford to live in London.
I am fat and alone and I hate my horrible life.
I need a hug! :(

Thank you!  :hug2:

It's just so weird that everything was working out so well for me just a few months ago. I'd got onto a masters course, I'd made loads of friends, I'd found myself a nice boyfriend, I'd got a job and I felt like I'd dodged a bullet when I found out my ex's new gf was pregnant!
Then suddenly it started going downhill. I started having seizures, a lost the job, had to take a break from the course, I lost the boyfriend, I got my diagnosis and now seeing her post that she's gone into labour just made me feel so much more alone. They have a nice happy family. And I've spent several weeks in my room watching netflix and eating junk food.

Sorry to hear about the diagnosis, but for many people it can be successfully managed, and you'll be back doing all of those good things again before you know it. You've shown that you can make loads of friends easily, and it's only going to be a matter of time before you meet the right boyfriend and plan that happy family together.

But for the junk food:  :frying pan:

Thank you Rob!
I'm attempting, now I'm on medication, to start getting out and seeing people again, but it's a bit awkward as I've spent so long cooped up in my room, that I feel like a bit of an outsider now.
I know that all this is just temporary - but it's just that it's everything at once, and it's gone from everything being perfect to everything being b***** awful!
I figure though, if Karma is real, I'm going to come back as some kind of goddess/superhero for dealing with all this rubbish!  :superman:
