Advice

Don't always fake it till you make it

20/7/2017

0 Comments

 
I've read the articles on how to be confident, but I can't quite hack the ability to 'fake it till I make it'. I think that maybe the key is self love, but i can't quite acquire that ability either. I don't even know where to begin on either of these aspects of myself, any advice?
Kaci
​

In all honesty, I don't think you should fake it. Self-love and confidence should be true, and real otherwise it's just going to feel fake. I'd say try by just wearing something you feel damn good in, take some selfies, post them on Instagram. Wear make-up if you need to. You could also try just doing something that makes you feel proud of yourself. So drawing something, completing a project, this will make you feel proud of yourself, and lead to you believing in yourself, and hopefully self-confidence! x

Kick your depression in the teeth

how can i fight my depression?
​Adrian
​

Depression is different for everyone, so fighting it is a different battle for everyone. I would first say go and get a diagnosis from a doctor if you haven't already, and they can refer you to people who can help. But if you're unable to do that, try to pick a moment at the end of your day and have an hour doing something you really enjoy. Whether it be just having a bath, or a hot chocolate, or reading. Have that time to relax, and look forward to, and vary it day to day, this will give you something to look forward to, and give you a reason to get out of bed. You could also try having a list of what you want to achieve for the day, even if it's just 'Have breakfast'. Start small, and make your way up. I hope you feel better soon x

Improving your vocab!

How can I increase my vocabulary ?
​Satakshi
​
Read! Reading has so many benefits, not only with it increase your vocabulary, but it'll do it without you even noticing! To begin with you could try just reading Roald Dahl's books (He's a fantastic author, with books for both adults and teens) and then progress onto authors like Terry Prachett. You could also download apps that you could do while you're bored. Hope that helped x

Bye Bye Blades

20/7/2017

0 Comments

 
A few nights ago I threw all my blades out the window and I have been clean ever since. I have the urge to cut again so I'm going out to buy a blade. I know it's wrong but if I don't I'm just going to find some other way to do it.
​Charlie
​
Hi Charlie it's great you know it's wrong and the fact you threw away your blades but even though the urge Is back you know you can be stronger now. What I suggest is maybe getting a piece of paper and keep folding it until it's so small it helps me stay calm and remind myself I can be stronger. If you don't have paper for some people it might not be best options but getting maybe a hair bobble and twisting it around your fingers can help. 
Just remember your strength is inside not on the blades.

Am I Asexual?

20/7/2017

How do you know you are asexual? I'm 16 and have never felt any attraction to anyone in that way but I don't know if it's because I have no attraction to the people I've met or if it is just the way I am.

​Stacey
With knowing that you're asexual, its all personal. Theres no set guidelines with being asexual, its different for every person. Its all personal, but if you believe you are then you may be :) - Elizabeth

You can find articles on asexual here. You can find 4 articles focused on Asexuality, feel free to contact us if you have any questions.- Emily
