Hey SANE community,

If we haven't yet interacted here, I'm Spirit_Healer!

I have made many friends along my journey here so far:

@tyme @Oaktree @Shaz51 @BPDSurvivor @creative_writer @The-red-centaur @rav3n @Ru-bee @Jynx @PeppyPatti @MJG017 @Healandlove @Blackcloud @Glisten @Former-Member @Clawde @ArraDreaming

And I'd love to get to know anyone else here, too!

@tyme suggested I make my own thread here, so that my posts don't get lost in the Best Friends Club thread.

You can also find parts of my story here:

Disclosing to a romantic partner

Cluster B Brother

This evening, my ex is about to call me. I haven't spoken properly to him since 11 November 2024, because he ghosted me for 8 weeks from 14 November until early January 2025. Then he met me at a salsa and bachata dance event, said "good to see you" and "did you receive my message?". The second time he said "good to see you" he disappeared. That was half an hour into the salsa social.

I just played another hour or so on the piano, sentimental and romantic pieces by Yiruma, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Chopin and Yanns Tiersen. I even had an audience of two fellow patients in the hospital at one point, before they took their night meds and went to bed. She reassured me that I could continue to play, because she would sleep through my playing.

I'd better get off now, to prepare for the phone call.

Fingers crossed we're both thinking openly, respectfully and clearly.

Afterwards, I'll take my night meds, hit the shower and then hop into bed.

Good night, and thank you, SANE community, in advance for your support!

@Shaz51 quiet days can be nice, send some rain this way 😂.

Dinner sounds yummy.

Day has been a bit all over the place and my routine has been messed up so it's sent me into a bit of a panic. But I'm just taking it minute by minute.

It sounds like your the adult ??

Re: Send 'smooth-sailing' sentiments to Spirit_Healer!

Yes, @PeppyPatti , growing up with parents with undiagnosed mental illnesses, I do certainly feel like 'the adult' from time to time.

I also sometimes feel like I'm the 'strong' one, to actually submit myself to treatment for my intergenerational trauma, mood issues, anxiety, etc. Given how I've seen my parents and myself suffer, I'm determined to break the cycle of intergenerational trauma, so that if/when I do become a Mum, I don't pass it onto my child(ren).

@PeppyPatti is there a reason why you tagged me in your post?

Em I meant to comment or something?

Re: Send 'smooth-sailing' sentiments to Spirit_Healer!

It doesn't suit everyone but not to give my upbringing to my two sons -

Iv had years and years of therapy.

But you don't need to do that anymore.

There are so many other ways to do what you want to do. I have no regrets but
