Hi all
I’ll be spending some time away from the forums since I’m not doing so good, no safety concerns, but I think I’m just simply too much for everyone here on the forums. My emotions are too much. May brain is too much. I don’t want to drown people in my pain, everyone is better off with me off the forums. I hope our paths cross again. Will say goodbye and wish you all the best. Sorry for being a pain

I don't think its screwed up your brain @creative_writer but I can understand why you think this way. Sometimes we get such mixed messages and our thoughts/thinking is so messed up.
Sometimes I feel like my brain is my own worst enemy.
It does make it really hard at times.

That pain can be so hard and frustrating @creative_writer
Can you think short term? How to get through the rest of the day, or even just getting through the next hour or so. Sometimes I find breaking things down is the only way to get through.
For my next hour I've got my oddie on, heater on, cuppa in hand and talking to my friends on here. How about you?

Glad you found something to help, even just a little @creative_writer
It certainly is cold here. Got my oodie on top of my clothes.
I find you can always layer in winter too and keep adding until you are warm!
