Hey everyone. My name’s Robin, I’m 18, based in Kent and I’m currently in my gap year. I’ve always known myself to be driven, ambitious and caring of others. I’m learning that I’m incredibly anxious, spend most my days thinking of what I will do and struggle to take care of myself. One moment I was getting top grades, focused on my faith and fitness, had an extremely productive schedule. The next, all my friends are in uni, days are flying by and the only thing I can manage to do is make it to my local job, which I hate, and come home to doomscroll and seclude myself away in my room. Battling a handful of challenges atm but I’m tired of feeling sorry for myself and living in my thoughts. “To know and to not do is to not know. Building the present will build the future you want. Worrying never changed the outcome” (last night’s journal) Saw Cameron’s posts and was reminded of what I used to stand for and how satisfying life was when it was attached to progress and real human connection. Big respect for your discipline, consistency and commitment On here to take all value I can get and actually change my life towards something meaningful. Hope all of you get everything you’ve ever wanted. God bless
