@MissGremlin yes exactly haha chains can be SO fun 😋 Maybe people are just nervous cos it's unusual social behaviour ahaha

@Jynx well unusual or not, if one wants to fidget with a chain then one shall 😊.

I just really scared myself and I'm trying to bring myself back into the present moment.

@MissGremlin yeah i see where you're coming from, it's hard thinking up all those answers on the spot! i'd happy to help out where i can and lend some ideas too (only if that's what you want).

omg a frog theme would be sooooo cool!!! speaking of frogs, this reminded me of when my sis (who was 4yrs old at the time) thought it would be hilarious to put lil frogs in my cousin's car... can confirm my cousin (who was like 25 at the time) screamed and ran out. i guess that's one way of creating a frog theme on a budget 😅

@rav3n I'll have a look at some stage and then we will go from there. Just need to get myself out of this state first.

Haha that's hilarious 😂. Frogs are very cute but can imagine it would have given your cousin a shock 😂.

Here to help tether you @MissGremlin! 💜

Thanks @Jynx definitely needing that right now.

@Jynx feel like I'm about to lose control and explode. Why does it only take something so little to tip me over the edge.

@MissGremlin cos your cup is already full!! So it only takes one drop to push you over!! It's rough, but it's not a personal failing hun

@Jynx someone empty that cup then 😂.

In all seriousness though I'm not in a good way and I'm not sure how to get through this. I have my music playing and my colouring in front of me (i can't even think about picking up a pencil though), but it's not helping. I splashed some cold water on my face to try to help, I had a drink and walked around my house but I'm feeling so out of control and right on the edge of just losing it completely.

@MissGremlin you taken stock of basic needs? Had enough to eat/drink today, and have you gotten exercise? Do you need reduction in sensory input or need to have a stretch? Exercise and movement especially are really good for regulation!

Also you don't have to answer any of those questions if you don't want, I'm more prompting you to check in with yourself, as opposed to grilling you like a teacher demanding homework!! Haha
