I am really not doing so well & I am struggling. I can't seem to function too well atm. I am shutting down. I saw my psych today, and she doesn't think doing exercise science is going to be good choice to study because there is not much work available in this field.
I am not able to articulate too well, what is happening for me. I am just exhasuted and scared and alone.

NO - still awake but much more relaxed @oceangirl
I thought Over the Rainbow might make you a little more sleepy!
Turn off the lights and go to sleep. Give Kira a goodnight kiss for me and a hug for yourself.
Night sis - sweet dreams

I am still awake too @Zoe7
Kira has just cuddled into me and I think she is ready for bed, even she has not fallen asleep tonight- she wont be out of bed now til lunchtime. Unless I wake up early but I doubt it.
I will let you unwind and relax a bit more @Zoe7.
