My local M&S used to always slice my sourdough from the bakery, sometimes they came packaged sliced. recently they have been saying the machine is broken which I failed to believe. Last time I went in I asked if they could slice it for me and I got the rudest response saying they couldn’t do this. I believe this to be just good customer service by slicing the bread. Has anyone else experienced this? I thought about complaining as it’s a nightmare to be constantly slicing sourdough! I read online about how they can’t slice bread until day two after being made which is laughable as most the fresh bread will be gone by then

I’m going through a period of intense overwhelming thoughts, constant overthinking. I’m currently off sick from work due work affecting my mental health further. I’ve self referred for support but could take a few weeks till I speak to someone. Just wondering what people have found proven to work for them? I’m thinking of journaling but I feel journaling in the past has just made me more anxious? I’m living with parents and never moved out due to intense anxiety and just feeling like a failure right now I guess!

Sooo I deleted Instagram a few weeks back and did really well for the first few weeks. Then out of loneliness I went back on and feel worse than ever :( just deleted it again and hopefully this time for good. Has anyone else given in at times? I feel it’s the WORST addiction ever!! Any advice welcome

Anyone a Lesbian/Queer from Liverpool/Merseyside here? :)

I came off social media a few weeks ago (mainly Instagram, that’s all I used). I feel my mental health is better and I don’t waste so much time. I have noticed the past few days that I’ve felt more lonely, anyone else experience this? Everything feels so quiet, no one texts me etc. shows how much I was relying on Instagram for connection despite never seeing those people or being friends with them! Any advice?

I am 29/F, Lesbian. I feel as though I have really put myself out the past few years, going to LGBT+/queer spaces having never done so before but haven’t managed to meet someone romantically! I’m a bit stuck. I’m quite introverted and I’m neurodivergent so it doesn’t come easily. I just have reached a point where I think maybe I should stop trying, maybe it will happen naturally? Any advice? Dating apps have never worked!

I am F/29 and have lived with my parents all my life. I feel like a massive failure for it. I’ve always struggled with my mental health and I am autistic. Being an overthinker and worrier I sit and think about what I haven’t achieved constantly. It’s not that I’m not independent, I work in a city and have my own car, make most of my own food etc but I have always struggled with the thought of moving out. I feel embarrassed and pathetic even saying it out loud! I have tried a couple of times in the past but I just spiral to the point where I can’t bring myself or my mind to do it. I’m quite isolated too as a lesbian in a small town and feel lonely a hell of a lot. I lost my best friend a few years ago which hasn’t helped at all. Just looking for some comfort and general advice

I was prescribed doxycycline 40mg for rosacea and took this for 8 days. I started getting the worst headaches of my life, dizziness and extreme nausea. I stopped taking them where I then got the worst headache to the point I went to A&E. Since coming off (been off coming up to 6 days today) I am still experiencing bad headaches, dizziness and my mental health has plummeted massively. I have had low mood, severe anxiety and panic attacks alongside feeling hopeless and no motivation. Is there any advice? How long will these effects last!!!
