Hi there, it's been a while since I've posted here but I really need to vent. So, about a year ago I had a couple of panic attacks leading to social anxiety within my social life and especially within my studies. 2 years ago I decided to attend an art school, a year later I switched to another...

Just a short piece of background info. I've never had a serious relationship, I'm 21 now. I've kissed girls and I've had sex, but never love (and to be honest, intimacy without love isn't that good at all). Also I've been suffering from social anxiety for the past half year or so, I've improved...

I'm sorry for writing such a long story, but I'd appreciate it if you read it. Hi there. Haven't posted here for a while because I've actually been doing pretty well overall, until now. This year I started with a new small-scale media art/music bachelor, we're with a small group and...

Sorry if this thread isn't really related to the forum. I quit smoking 5 and a half weeks ago, cold turkey, for the first time ever. I smoked a couple of cigarettes tonight, they were aweful but I feel so bad. I reallt hope I'm not addicted again... I don't have any cigarettes in my environment...

Hi. I used to love going out to bars, clubs, whatever. For the past 1,5 year I've started to dislike it more and more and more and more. I really don't like going out anymore. I think this is pretty strange, because going out was, for me, a way of meeting new people, I've met almost all of my...

Hi there, I've posted about this before, I thought it was over, but it isn't... This is a pretty long read but I'd appreciate it if you read it. So here we go. About 2,5 years ago I fell in love with a girl. I went on 1 date and after that she kind of rejected me (she was in my high school, by...

So here's the story. Since this year I'm attending a very good and awesome art academy. This week all the years are having huge projects; it's not mandatory. Our year has a huge building (around 2500 square meters, 26909.8 square feet according to Google) to work in with lots of big, and small...

Just some background information; around a year ago I was using harddrugs on a regular basis, I've never been addicted tho. This issue/story/warning is about ecstacy in particular. I used to use it 2 to 4 times a month. What it does is make you extremely euphoric for a short time, depleting a...

As I always say, I'm not a frequent visitor here, but I just wanted to let anyone who remembers me know that I'm doing better now. Just to sum it up; I always felt like I was worth nothing. My parents divorced last year, my dad threatened me, my mother and my brother with comitting suicide a...

PS: I don't know if I'm in the right forum here. 2 days ago I had my introduction day at my new college (an art school). Just so you know, I really liked it, looking forward to start. After the president held a speech and we got a tour on through all the buildings we got to choose excursions...

As some of you might now (altho I don't post here very frequently), I used do do a lot of drugs, I wasn't addicted or anything, but until about 6 months ago I used various stuff almost every week. I still use something occasionally, but I had the biggest issues with ecstacy and speed. I really...

I haven't posted for a while, but I need some advice. I'll start off by explaining my situation (as short as possible). I used to go to this high school, I didn't really enjoy it there. I left after 5 years and went to another, graduated a couple of months ago. The fifth year in this old high...

I haven't posted a lot in the past few months, but everything is going well. I (finally) graduated from high school, got admitted to one of the best art schools in Europe (the Gerrit Rietveld Academy, Amsterdam), I'm really excited to start next year. Besides that my parents (divorced last...

Here's my story. I was at my old high school today because a couple of my friends who are doing their finals this year did their final theater play. Afterwards there was a small kind of party and I spoke to their drama teacher for a while, and eventually I asked him if he liked Seinfeld (the...

As some of you might have read I've sent a valentines card to a girl, but I didn't get any response yet. It was anonymous but IMO it was clear enough it came from me. I think there are 2 possibilities; it wasn't delivered at all, or she doesn't know it was me. I really want to talk to her...

Last week I had to do an admission for an art institute, it went really well and they said I'd hear if I'd be admitted in about 2 weeks. Got an e-mail today, I'm in! I'm very happy because of every 15 candidates only 1 gets admitted. We had to make some work there, show our portfolio's and have...

PS: My English isn't bad, but sometimes I'm having a hard time expressing myself in English, sorry for that. Hi everyone, I posted a thread here a while ago, and I'm feeling so messed up right now that I decided to post another thread explaining my situation. Prepare for a long story. Last...

Hi, my name is Thomas, I'm an 18 year old dutch boy (sorry if my English isn't very good at some points). I've been feeling really down for the past years, lot's of things have happened, so I decided to just put it on a forum and see if someone is able to advice me in what to do. I'll start at...
