I thought I'd start a discussion where we can check in with members and use this space to keep in contact. It's a space to be able to say how you really feel and it's a space for the good, the bad and the ugly moments in our lives.

@Teej @CheerBear I love being able to come on here and read your interactions with each other - it is like two old friends having a chat and supporting each other - always gives me a smile even when the content of conversations is tricky. You both support each other so well and that is something to celebrate. 
@Teej I hope you get some time with your Big - it would have been disappointing that you didn't have today as you had planned. Hopefully you will have some evenings at least where you can spend some time together. This gf seems to be very clingy so I hope your Big doesn't feel suffocated by all the time together 
@CheerBear It is wonderful that Big is venturing out so well on their own. It is no small thing to have to let go of those reins and you are doing exceptionally well in doing that yourself. It is also great to read that you are feeling a little safer in your world. We both know how hard that is to navigate especially when you feel like 'others' will try to find us and there feels like there is nowhere we can feel safe. I hope you can continue to feel a little more secure in your world CB - it is so important to have that feeling to be able to function each day. You definitely have my thoughts with you Hon

Hey there @Faith-and-Hope I’m at the respite house now. I still feel really low but am pushing through. I have a psychiatrist appointment coming up next month sometime. It can’t come soon enough!

Oh well done @Queenie ..... you’re making some headway ❣️ Thanks so much for getting back to us with an update of what is happening for you .....
I hope the psychiatrist is a good fit with you, and together with respite time you start feeling a bit better within yourself.
Hugs Hon. So good to see you .....🌷💕
