...Sure, we're supposed stay positive and keep our heads up, but it is hard not to get discouraged.
ya, it sucks ass...i've had my ups and downs, more downs than anything...it really bums out my friends, and they keep telling me stuff, like..time will come..blah blah..
it's great they believe in me, but really, u can't help the way u feel (or u can't stop checking your mailbox, email, infosource), unless u just 'let it go' for a bit.
i have learned to stop the incessant checking. it's futile...my anxiousness has declined...cuz it wastes too much energy & time...affecting my school work.
at this point, we can't do ANYTHING to change THIS cycle..but if we just concentrate what we're doing now, be it school or work...and wait patiently..things will happen.
i'm just tryin to say that, it really doesn't matter what anyone says until u just let it go...sucks...but that's the way the cookie crumbles.
good luck. a lot of us are in the same *barely floating* boat (see...my glass is still KINDA half FULL)
