Something’s not right

No space for me.

No space for me.

I don't know where to post this... so I just thought here will do, I'm fine, I'm actually really well, so maybe this isn't the best sub topic, not sure.


I don't really feel like I have a place anywhere. hmm, how do I put this... I don't have anywhere I belong to or I can be myself at, that isn't my own family. I love my family, so don't get me wrong but I think everyone needs something that is just theirs. I used to be a part of an online community for a long time and that's what it was, a space that was just for me and I could do what I liked with it. I kind of left that for here, and this isn't it... just doesn't do it for me. I don't feel part of anything here and it's all a bit weird to me.

So now I'm not sure. I think it's really important that everyone has that space or solo activity, especially with having young kids like I do, I quit footy this year so lost that connection, I have found something like an online community really accessible and anonymous etc, but I don't have anything like that anymore.

Hmm. I am just not sure at the minute. Does anybody have any ideas?

Re: No space for me.
