Thanks for your thoughts @REDLINEZ750 . He can get anything on the web. He's a loner and doesn't have any friends so he takes whatever by himself. You're right! "If he's not asking for help with it then there's no help to offer really". I think it comes down to that! I agree that it's good to have an open dialogue but he's not a teenager anymore. He tells me because I ask him, so my idea is not to ask anything about his drug taking anymore! I've mentioned D & A counselling which he's rejected, and he's been to NA once and hated it. He won't go back again! I just have to let him live his life and be there when the shit hits the fan! I'm tired of doing it but I guess that's a part of my role as his mother. :face_with_rolling_eyes:

Thank you for these beautiful affirmations ❤️ @Mustang67

Thanks @Mustang67 I like the one that said I can be grateful for all I have while also feeling grief for all I've lost. I have both those feelings at the same time! I'm a happy little hippy soul most of the time!

Good morning @Jynx @Blackcloud @GezzaP @Kashmina @DownMoreThanUp @MissGremlin and everyone else who's on at the moment. Here's hoping for a better day today! 💚

Morning @heartathome, hope it's a lovely day for you 😊.

@MissGremlin i reckon it is not that perfection is not wanted my friend, for being in perfect peace, love, or joy are perfectly satisfying, but perfection is not understood very well, and that is where the problem usual lays.

@Jynx @Cuddlebear @heartathome @Blackcloud

Consider;

Here we are snowed under by a depressive mindset, where bad life pesters us, up the hilt, with those so called imperfections, while we all know heeding those ugly thoughts is what makes imperfect, and not heeding it is truly the perfect thing to do!😁

Or

Here we are scorned by others for being 'no good',😎 while others are 'no good' scorning us, 👎and us holding on to our truths is perfectly okay to do!👍

for

For here we are awake at night hurting our depressed realities, hurting life longing for good life, hurting the lies ruling us down here. Yet truly my friends there is nothing imperfect mourning good life hurting bad life, for surely we all stand right beside everyone suffering bad life down here?

So therefore i reckon;

that to suffer bad life is perfectly fine, let us not ever feel bad doing that. It is when we enjoy living a bad life, or let it take us over producing more bad life, that imperfections begin to be sail us, not us down there hurting bad life.

Just my two bobs worth on that one.👍

i found that believing a depressive mindset depresses me even more, while suffering a depressive mindset knowing it ALWAYS lies about me, to be MY TRUTH instead, will overcome my depressive mindeset in the end.

YOU ARE A LIVING TESTIMONY OF GOOD LIFE OVERCOMING BAD LIFE!Did you also travel further suffering life, learning to enjoy good life, than you did enjoy good life before you suffered bad life? i know i love all good life now and hate all bad life - nothing imperfect about that!

@MissGremlin Hello lovely how are you? Thank you for the affirmations. They’re beautiful as always.

How is your tooth? Are you doing any errands today?

Im home all day today unable to function. This taper is hitting me hard again. I really don’t know what to do.

Hello @Cuddlebear my sweet, I'm not feeling ok today in many ways (I'm safe).

My tooth is sore and I can't get through to the number i was given to see if I can get help. I have to go to the shops later but for now I'm laying on my lounge with Casper.

I'm sorry the tapering is hitting hard again sweet, have you got someone that you can call for support. It's not fair that you are left to deal with this alone. Sending you hugs beautiful ❤️.

@MissGremlin Hello my sweet. I hope you’ve now been able to get through to number you were given? I am honestly sorry you too are not feeling the best. Is there anything I can do here to help at all?

I don’t have anyone to call for support 😞 I messaged a friend but no reply. All I have are the useless support numbers which I’ve never found helpful to be honest. I’m safe but I feel rotten.

@Mustang67 Hello lovely how are you? I love your affirmations. Thank you for remembering to tag me. I’m really hoping my tapering efforts will bring success as your affirmation says.

What do you have on today?
