Yep it really sucks when nothing feels real around you @Eden1919
What is real in this moment however is that once again you have reached out and asked for support - that is not only real but very couragous Eden ![]()
Wow - languages - any that you specifically want to learn more than others? I know a little Italian and French (and a fair bit of Australian slang lol). I found learning another language extremely difficult when I was older but worth the effort.
What do you feel is 'wrong' with your brain that this dream does not seem possible?

Oh I get it @Eden1919 - those are really tough languages to learn in any circumstance - wow - impressive that you even started one, let alone all three ![]()
Why do you think you have ruined everything? What has happened to make you think this?

@Eden1919 Our first step here then is to try and focus on just one or two things that are in your head. It doesn't matter what you choose to focus on - it is about trying to stop the turmoil and confusion going on in your mind. If you don't think you can choose one thing yourself then tell me about when, how and why you got Dog - I love animal stories, and especially how people came across their pets!
