The sextortionist hasn’t contacted me in four and a half months. And I didn’t think about it really for the last three months or so. But since about a week, I am extremely anxious. The thought that he could contact or upload at any time sickens me, makes me feel always on guard and lives in my head rent free, making less room for other important things and stresses me so much that I do less of what I need and want to do. I need advice how to cope with it…

Hello, I started a master last year in October, but I had giant mental health issues at the time. They were so bad that I didn’t feel like I could do anything really and so I didn’t start my master properly. I only did a few extra courses to at least do something. This October, I want to start like all normally do in their first semester, because I feel somewhat better again. I have been looking for mental health support in the meantime and still try to find something that endures, but it’s looking good. Still, I feel kinda bad and guilty that someone else would have surely used those two semesters properly and I possibly denied someone the opportunity to do so, since my master is only letting a few in every October and I took one of the spots. I was always a reliable student before, but personal problems really crushed me in the months before the master started.
