But I don't know what to say.

My manager is very nice... she's the only person at work I can properly talk to about all this stuff.

My mum totally doesn't understand at all. She couldn't figure out why I cried at work and thinks I should just be 'fine' and go back to work.

It's my birthday in a couple of weeks, but before that I'm meant to be writing an assignment for university. I haven't even started it and it's due on the 15th. Panicking about that too.
