Hello @Happyness @Former-Member
it is so hard when we feel that the people around us are not being honest..
so important for us to feel safe..
if these are people with whom you do not have to rely on..you can choose to let them go...
or you can ask them if they are important in your life...the question.."are you being honest with me...
pleased to see that you are still keeping in touch on here..
you are always so very welcome to talk to us here..
take care

...you should lay some 'ground rules' for the Christmas and New Year festive season
and some appropriate ones at that...

hello @Happyness
lovely to hear from you...
yes that is a great idea...
I try to set boundaries...
I also work very hard at not allowing myself to become upset by some other fool who happens to be in my company at the time....
I hope that you are sharing some of the time with family and friends...
I hope that this time brings you some peace, comfort and love...
take care my friend

Hi @Happyness,
It sounds like you are really focusing on taking care of yourself over Christmas. I hope the day goes at least ok (and hopefully better than ok) for you.
