Battles

@rav3n nothing's working which is so frustrating. I've tried grounding techniques, breathing, listening to music, watching my TV show, colouring. It's exhausting trying so many things but nothing having any impact.

Yeah the cartoon one for me will always be the best. Maybe one day I'll check the new one out but I'm not interested in it at the moment.

@MissGremlin

Yeah, it so tough to deal with crap that happens to us, things we can't control. It's easy to blame ourselves but it never helps anything, especially ourselves. It's obviously been such an incredibly tough few weeks for you, so it's perfectly reasonable to cut yourself a bit of slack. Just focus on getting through this patch tonight, which I know you can do, but it's just more of a toll you could really do without.

My night has been a quiet one. Again. I'm starting to sound like a boring old man with no life. Oh yeah. 😁

100% does sound exhausting @MissGremlin especially when nothings working the way we want it to. sounds like getting some rest like a nap would be good, but i know you mentioned that sleeping has been hard too. even if the strategies aren't working, you're still here and i'm still here with you. taking things minute by minute, second by second - you're pushing through regardless. and that's worth more than you think.

yeah so fair. they've even got a new shrek movie coming... even though it's still a cartoon, the characters seemed a lil different in the teaser. did you hear about the peppa pig announcement by the way? 😆

@rav3n yeah sleeping isn't an option at the moment. Literally taking things second by second is all I can do right now. So thankful to have you and the support here ❤️.

I like the shrek movies so hopefully the new one doesn't disappoint. Yes I did hear the peppa pig news, kind of tempted to watch it 😂

@MJG017 I'm trying to, it's definitely something I could do without. I'm not quite so close to feeling like I'm going to explode now but still very much worked up. I was trying to listen to music but having my ear buds in was too much cos I could hear my heart pounding through them.

Hey I'd much rather have a boring life than one filled with constant drama 😂

@MissGremlin

Imagine that... a boring life where nothing bad happened. We just get up, go about our normal and boring day, go to bed and repeat. What a wonderful place that would be. I mean, it would get a bit too dull after a while, 40 years or so, but it would be such a nice break. We can but dream 😂

@MJG017 would just be nice to have a quiet and peaceful time for a while. No drama, no bad things, nothing to stress about just calmness for a bit. Yes one can only but dream but in order to dream one must sleep and that's just something that's non existent for me 😂.

i shouldn't laugh but this was too funny @MissGremlin

i like the shrek movies too, hopefully they do it justice!! i can't believe they broadcasted the news in the UK, surely there's more important things to talk about 😂 but definitely smart advertising because now even i want to see what happens hehe

also i gotta head off soon, i'll catch y'all tomorrow. good night!! @MissGremlin @MJG017

Good night @rav3n

@rav3n i figure if I don't laugh about my crappy situations, I'll cry.

Guess we will have to wait and see 😊.

Thanks for chatting to me, it's really helped to at least stay in the present moment. I hope you have a good night and look forward to chatting tomorrow. Night night ❤️
