So im feeling stressed and worried i wont be able to handle going to school and working at the same time. im only going to school part time. working full time. i think ill be able to do it. but then i have a new guy in my life and this has been kinda stressing me out lately too.i feel like im rushing things with him or maybe we both are in some ways. i just want to be his girlfriend already. hmm maybe i should give him some space for a bit to let him know im independent as well. i really do like him. i figured out hat really helps anxiety tho. its working out. i never want to work out but today i did for a couple hours and feel better. i still have to get comfortable working out and not anxious about it... hmm its kinda self defeating

Continued support while you find what works for you.

She would always tell me that I chose to...
