I'm sorry

hello all

We have 2 cats, both spoilt, who behave like naughty children. They sit in the hallway glaring at us when they know we are going out. They are there waiting for us when we return.

We both love animals.

They sense when things are not going well for me also.

thankyou

Hello @PeppiPatty @BlueBay @Faith-and-Hope @Former-Member @Appleblossom and all others

Thank you all for your kind words and thoughts. I cannot begin to describe how powerful the feeling is when I receive a response no matter how small and no matter how written.

The very fact that I am valued on here and am considered worthwhile to respond to means the world to me. A huge issue for me goes back as far as a young girl, not being listened to, not being heard, being different, being dismissed.

So I am going to struggle very much with this. I would hate to think that I would miss some change in your life and not be here for you.

I will be here in a way that you will be in my thoughts. I have not let go of you, I am just not going to cling on so tightly.

i will keep in touch and please forgive me in advance if I miss out someone's name.

I will not spread myself as much and definitely watch the time factor.

stay safe xxxxx

Hi @Former-Member

I have read back a couple of pages here and people have been saying most of the stuff and more about what I have been saying about being in the site - and I like and love what they say - and obviously you are well loved and appreciated also - just stay here as long as you feel like it and don't get caught up in other people stories -

It's not a job - we come here for help, support and company - social media might not be a way it could be done a lot 20 years ago - impossible 40 years ago - but now it's what people do

And you are valued here

I'm so glad I read all those thoughts - lots of hugs today - Dec

Hi @PeppiPatty

How are you?

Ohhh my special friend @PeppiPatty

...I never saw this thread until now -- I know there are some thread I have not been on yet xx

I am sorry @PeppiPatty, @BlueBay, @Decadian, @Former-Member, @Former-Member, @Faith-and-Hope, @Appleblossom

The last 2 weeks have been soooo big with Mr shaz with kidney stones, my mum in hospital, me with the flu

so today was my first day out of the house this week with the flu and I am tired again this afternoon

had a good talk with @Former-Member on topic tuesday and she thinks i am having a carers burnout and @CherryBomb has she is not surprised with what has been happening lately

and then Mr shaz said I might need some meds to help me

I did see my doctor about it @Faith-and-Hope and she said " Let`s get over all this first " and then we will see if you need any Meds to help you

@PeppiPatty You are the first person who had a go at relating the whole of me .. as I began posting on the forum .. am very very very fond of you ..

it helps me keep keeping on

I so love that @BlueBay took control of her identity and changed her pic and name.

It doesnt mean we are not sad ... I was a SAD girl too .. now I have a range of feelings bubbling along under the surface.

Logging off for now .. but this forum is the first time I have been accepted without having to be totally compliant and invisible. I have been able to ask questions, make contradictory statements etc. i dont do that often or for the sake of it .. but being able to do that and still be me .. not just useful or compliant which is the way i do generally see me .. but the sadness and energy nand cretivity are also a part ..

Cheerio Friends
