Hi all. I am a 22 year old undergraduate student and I have just joined this site for guidance and advice.

Since the pandemic, there has been a lot of things in my life what has gone on. My anger was so bad last year as I lost my job, had an accident that I was grateful to recover from and because I didn’t take responsibility for my own actions I made a few mistakes when it comes to studying. I am trying to do better in my life but it seems like I am just going around in circles. Also, for some reason I developed an addiction to eating ice cubes, not sure why but it calms my anxiety down.

I met someone last year, he speaks Chinese and English. It was just coincidence how we met, but I’m so happy. Anyway, I’m a little behind on my studies even though I am trying to catch up. I don’t want to feel miserable or so down anymore when I have a lot to look forward to. Maybe I am trying to do too much. I always try to google solutions to my problems, but this does not get me anywhere. I am scared that if I do not sort out my anxiety or life, I might lose this relationship even though there is nothing wrong with this current relationship at this time.

Thank you
