quite a dark day.
It started off well, managed to get out of the house and go to the library to get on with some work for my dissertation for my final year of uni. Then it all went downhill, I've just been feeling quite useless and being in this flare isn't helping.
I've just moved into a new house near uni and have been meeting new people and it's so embarrassing when they don't know about my crohn's and hear my tummy noises and presume I'm hungry and make a big deal out of it.
To cut to the chase, I have completely lost my confidence. I used to be a bubbly, funny person that found it easy to talk to lots of people, and sometimes I do see snippets of that person but the rest of the time I feel a bit lost. I don't like spending time with lots of people at the same time and mostly prefer to be by myself which is very unlike me.
I really don't know what to do about it, I've been trying to put myself out there but it just seems so overwhelming right now.
