  • Thanks - I've just had a look at that site and I think I'll try and send off tonight! I wonder if I can find any other mobile phones!? Anyone think of any other great ideas to try and earn money? I'm going to have myself a little competition all of my own of £400 by 7/09/2009. That's when the first pay day cheque comes out... any ideas? I'll do ANYTHING!!!

  • Have sent off my phone and should hopefully get £55 for it, and am working V Festival next weekend - that should be something towards my target at least!! Looking online for work as well and there is work but it's immediate start and I have to do V Festival first... half considering seeing whether I can get the work and just not doing V?? x

  • Have decided I'm going to ask my parents if I can not pay them back for 2 months to get myself back on the right path. Will still try and get extra money from whereever I can though - still applying for bar work though not hearing anything back :(

    I'm finding it really hard at the moment, having real problems which are causing me not to sleep, I'm just eating junk food and constantly wanting to treat myself to new clothes etc. I keep saying again and again that I need to sort this out, but it's so easier said then done.

    Really feel like I just need some good time off work to sort out my head but that's not an option really - I'm sorting the problem out, it's just trying to keep on the straight whilst it's happening is so hard :(

    did you go and see your GP about how you are feeling - I really do think it would be worth doing x

  • Thanks - I am thinking about it as an option, but thinking all he could really do is precribe sleeping tablets which I could probably try some kind of herbal remedy first!

    I've got to pull myself out of it anyhow - I'm just being self indulgent and because I believe I've got an excuse to get away with it that's what I'm letting myself do. Need to stop moaning and get on with sorting things! Feeling a lot more positive then yesterday. Got a much better night sleep - though I still woke up at 4am to check my phone which I'd left on silent! But still I went back to sleep for another couple of hours, and if I did some proper tidying on the evening and left my phone in the other room what's the bet I'd sleep right through!!!

    Right I need to change my attitude - V Festival this weekend - looking forward to working it!!!

    I was having lots of problems sleeping, and so recently bought the Nytol herbal tablets from boots.

    I took them for about 10 days and it has definitely got me back into a better sleep pattern.

    I think they cost about £4 from Boots and you get 2 weeks worth which should be enough to know if you need to try anything different.
