My t tells me that sometimes it's good for you to do the opposite of how you feel (eg. if you feel like withdrawing, make sure you socialise). i use distraction a lot to get through. When it's really bad -like for weeks or months on end - I just focus on getting through each hour, and try to remind myself that I shouldn't make myself worse by feeling ashamed of how I feel. Be kind to yourself, do something nice for yourself and pm me if needed
Thanks for your kind words TWF! (: I would like to watch a movie or something but I can't as I have my A Levels (the British/Commonwealth equivalent of the SATs) soon. Think I just might screw up in this state!
