Introduction

Hi guys I am new here but just skipped over introducing myself and threw myself straight into the forums so let's rewind a minute.

I was diagnosed with Bipolar Affective Disorder in 1990. It changed my life and not in a good way. My mother said "now you will never do anything with your life" and my Aunt said "we should put her in an institution". It was right then that I decided that I would live the best life I possibly could with this illness. I since met and married my husband and we had 3 gorgeous children who have all now reached adulthood. I have been in and out of hospital a lot since around 2008 and somewhere along the way had BPD added to my diagnosis. I enjoy art and crafts, playing computer games and watching tv. I was working with a psychologist and we were going to work on childhood trauma as I grew up in an abusive household but I kept getting sick so we are currently on a break. Not sure if I want to go back to therapy at this point in time. Not sure what else to add so I will just leave it here. Feel free to ask questions x

@tonys @LeChuck @Sophia1 @Bunniekins @Oaktree

I would like to welcome you all to this special ceremony this evening. We would like to acknowledge the Native American Nation on whose land our town, Grey Rock, is situated! We acknowledge their Chiefs and tribal leaders.

At this time I welcome to our circle around this cleansing fire, Big Chief, Little Foot and Pest.

Us townspeople would like to thank you Native American’s that have graced our town with your presence. We had fun for a short time but unfortunately your presence caused unintended contention. This is not your fault but is also not our aim. Therefore we are wishing to thank you in a spirit of peace and harmony and ask you to not inhabit this place anymore. It is with great sadness that we release you and we wish you well.

If everybody would please stand and follow me silently around this cleansing fire.

everyone walks silently around the cleansing fire 3 times

Thank you all for attending this thanking ceremony tonight. May you all leave here in safety, love and light!

oh my goodness just as well I was not there in real life I have tears rolling down my cheeks

@Oaktree @tonys

Yes I stopped breathing all together

I need an oxygen mask

my mind took me to so many places with that..

I thought to myself well you are related @Oaktree and I am so glad that I gave you the honour.

I am left wondering how confused they all are. Having only just arrived in our supposedly friendly town.

Best leave it there.

In regard to border patrol

@Oaktree @tonys @LeChuck @Bunniekins (if you are brave enough to enter pea)

I do not think that we need worry about protecting the borders

I think that we do a very good job of saying the wrong thing and then spending 20 posts trying to do the right thing

code wooden spoon
