Thank you - that's really helpful. I tried talking to a teacher at the beginning of exams but she basically said it was too late for me to be able to use a different room or use any other accommodations. Using a fidget has sort of been restricted to immediately before I go into each exam.

I use Stimaz but their a bit pricey but my ultimate fidget

No I have the same fears all the time! I can't let myself think about it too much bc I'll have a panic attack, but I've constantly been told that gay people go to hell and stuff by Christian people. I'm Christian, and I don't blame God for the people who say they're godly and then act that way, but it's still hard to not believe what they say. I don't know if I'm gay, but I've definitely felt some attraction towards a particular girl, but it never grew to feelings. I just don't know what to do. I've told myself I'll just find a good guy and never think about it again, but I've been told a lot that I'll never be able to find someone to love me bc of my mental illness and other issues, and I'm scared I'm gonna be alone and stuck with these thoughts forever. Help 😭

I have a degree in Theology an Philosophy. That does not mean that I have all the answers or know the truth, but I can offer you some knowledge. If you read the old and new testament there are a few references that christians might use to condemn gay people. You can read some of them in 25 Bible Verses about Homosexuality - What Does Scripture Say? (biblestudytools.com) Therefor, homosexuality must be condemned. And now the good news: society has evolved in the last two millenia. We've learned that most rules in the bible are now utterly nonsense: two anti gay verses are Leviticus 18:22 and Leviticus 20:13. But in between these verses is also Leviticus 19:19. So if someone throws anti-gay versus in your face, ask them if they ever wear cloths that are not 100% of the same fabric. If they do, they as much a sinner as a gay person. People who judge you for being gay, should read the gospel again, especially Mt 7, 3.

Thanks!!!

Thanks!

reak and veting to friends

I had to look up cupioromantic, but that honestly makes a lot of sense for me. I've been romantically involved with two people, one we dated for two weeks til I broke it off, I didn't know how to say no to him so I just ended up in that relationship. The other was what my friends lovingly call the "two year talking stage", he liked me, I was sure I liked him, but neither of us wanted to date at the time. Looking back, I am pretty I did have feelings for him, which makes me question whether I'm truly aro or if I'm demiromantic (we'd already been friends for a long time before either of us caught feelings). But I definitely want a relationship at some point, but it would have to be with someone I considered like one of my closest friends.

For me depression yes anxiety yes ADHD most likely

PotionDiceCo is a good Etsy shop. It's on the cheaper end and the shipping was very fast but it is UK based so it might not be good if you live elsewhere.

Hi I don't think it's a tic as I also sometimes get this daily!:)

Hi, yeah, I’m queer (which means in my case that I don’t identify as a sexual orientation flag in particular)
