Hey, I'm okay at the moment, how are you? I'm okay because I'm not thinking about my psych too much, it's the only way to deal. I've been offered a job, which is awesome, but I'm having to wait on an extended security check and I'm not working at the moment, and I won't have enough money for rent next month so I'm really worried.

They're doing three years of reference checks on me, which is a nightmare, I've done about 8 jobs in the last three years and its taking ages. They're also doing a police check, which I guess covers CRB checks. They called today to say that when I start they will pay me in April because I've missed payday, but I will def be asking for an advance so I don't become homeless. And there might be a showdown on my disability provision, but not there yet.

Doikers - how are you doing?

Welcome Rose :) i'm Lucy, Nice to meet you! I see you like Gerard Way :D How was DBT? I hear it can be difficult, and people only start to find it helpful after they've been doing it for a while.
Serialangel, I can relate a bit. I got offered a job(foundraising) as well, but not sure when I'll be starting, and my living situation is still not great. I moved out; currently staying with a 'friend'(Mark knows, it's the guy who kept trying to hit on me...). I found a real cheap place, rent is only £200 and not asking for deposit! But I can only move there in April...so I'm pretty worried. I hope things go well for you X
*huggles Mark* Yay for having fun with your niece and nephew; children are amazing X
I'm trying not to think too much about Mother's Day.[hard, because it's everywhere] Stephanie Hirst made an amazing post about how hard it is to deal with it all, and that really helped me tbh(for those who don't know, my mom died last year). I'm trying to draw motivation from my memories of mom being supportive, it's what I need right now. ETA: I shared Stephanie's post and attached my own to it, and she replied <3 I am so happy.
just been diagnosed among some other stuff. been referred for an assessment for DBT. anyone had this and mind sharing their experiences? positive or negative?
