    Hugs rob :grouphug:
    I know how tough things are and pls keep in mind they can only get better. I've been out of work longer than I ever thought I would be and I constantly feel guilty that my OH works so hard to keep us afloat. He has to work 300miles away so I can't even do my bit to look after him to repay him. It upsets me soo much but you have to focus on the future & this time now will make you a stronger person in the long run.
    i just dont have anything too look forward too .. i think thats the biggest problem too
    wish there was an embarrassed smiley because i honestly hate my self when i feel like this and feel angry at my self

    well done vixie

    thanls for your support guys even the one about eating more syns trouble is i cant lol - i dunno how to firstly - i hardly ever drink ... i hardly ever eat junk foid and the most synful thing i have had this week is bread

    How about some a 50g portion of banana chips at 14 syns!
    They're about 50p from weigh and saves, and they are really easy to eat.
    Doesn't feel synful at all, so might be better that way.
    I found out about the syns the hard way however :(

    I really hope things turn around for you *hugs*

    gosh, what a nightmare! Is there a welfare officer or adviser at your Uni who you can go to for advice?

    Your doctor needs a kick up the bum - i think you should chase him for that appointment just so you know that you're ok xx
    All hail to the sale!!!!!! :beer:

    Crikey - with what you are going I would say that eating that chocolate is more or less compulsary! You know it will make you feel better!:D

    Hopefully after a good nights sleep (fingers crossed) you will feel better tomorrow, we will all send positive vibes to you! Big hugs :grouphug:

    14 syns for banana chips!! Wow! I'd rather have a Twix for 14.5syns lol

    12g bags of milky way magic stars are only 3.5 syns and if you suck them they last for aaaaaages and they are really chocolatey!!! :p they are naughty but nice!!
