Something’s not right

Where?

Where?

Where have my so called friends gone?

Two, three weeks ago I had a few whom I could call or text, or even spend time with.

Lately everyone seems out of reach and unresponsive.

What's going on?

Re: Where?

@Kyle1, I don’t think I’m as reactive as I used to be to people not responding straight away. I know it’s not just them being busy, it’s me being reluctant to be more open and communicate how I really felt, so they couldn’t support me. 🫂

Re: Where?

Oh, gosh. Well, that's not me: I'm very generous in my outpourings... I sometimes pity anyone who dare take time to listen to me.

At one moment I'm emoting, and the next I'm trying to wrangle a rational understanding of the emotion! ...

I can go on with this dosey doe for a week or more! .... @creative_writer

Re: Where?

@Kyle1, I've found it perplexing that people are willing to listen to me, I'm just a person who doesn't have much to offer. People will say they care and enjoy spending time with you. I mean realistically, wouldn't you be there for a friend who is also struggling? I'm sure you're worth more than you realise ❤️

Hey @Kyle1,

That sounds like a lot to have to happen at one point in time so I can understand your need for connection. What does a typical day look like for you? Do you have any simple things going that you can do that brings joy? I am really enjoying sitting outside with a coffee at the moment and watching the parrots each the fruit on our trees. I can imagine at this time such things might be overwhelming by all the thoughts in your head.
