2022

2022

This year will be different to last

I have some plans in the making and a lot will happen and change.

I nearly had a panic attack tonight but avoided it entirely by thinking through what needed to be done in the immediate future. So I did exactly what I knew I needed to. And left it there.

I also fixed my mattress for a temp fix before I get the new one.

There's always so much on my mind. So much I want and need.

But I know the strides I made last year will push me forward.

Just need to set a routine and be stringent. But also not hard on myself.

Its hard for me socially atm so I take what I can.

Dating - I have no idea and to be honest I'm okay with that. I have some apps but I will ween myself away from it. I'm open minded enough. Thatll do for now.

Now it's bed time.

Talk tomorrow

Pretty much @Appleblossom

I need to get out of the dating mindset too

Sex and relationships are always there in our face. So much pressure for it. Dunno if I can take it.

That circus is maybe not for the likes of you and me. @MDT So much projected image and status, that is often not earned or substantial/ I believe you deserve a relationship but maybe the best is yet to come ... no crystal balls here ... though I do fancy myself as a bit of gypsy at times.

I went on a date today ... ha! First one in over 10 years. Alright. Just a cuppa and I bought farmfresh free range eggs and mushies for tonight's stroganoff with my son.

Took a hint from a quip from ... @Eve7 ... something about 'newly wed and nearly dead' ... hee hee ... thats us ... not you ....

Hang in there mate.

Yes - it is a carnival of a circus I think.

Haha @Appleblossom I went on a date too…well sort of.I went to a friend’s birthday party as his kids had invited me and he made me feel very welcome. I felt like a normal person today rather than someone consumed with her mental health.

Evening all

Was gonna sit here and talk about how i feel but i think i may hold off. Im quite tired. Im privy to make some silly comments about myself that may impact my own self image. Best to avoid that methinks.

Ill be on tomorrow. Can process more things then.

Good night forumites. Maybe in dreams ill find answers lol
