Morning @MissGremlin. I had a decent night's sleep. No nightmares, which is also a bonus.

I'm very...space cadet today! But not really feeling much of anything...just spacey and struggling to start the things on my to-do lost.

How was your night? Did you get some rest?

@NightFury glad it was a decent night's sleep and a bonus not having any nightmares.

Hopefully that spacey feeling settles and you can get started on your to-do list. Just remember to be gentle with yourself and take your time doing things.

I got a little bit of rest but not really enough. Such is life.

@MissGremlin glad you managed to get some rest. I understand the feeling of it being not really enough.

That's a good reminder, thank you. Go slow...might be the order of the day. It seems to be happening anyway and I'm trying to push the issue.

Gotta get stuff done!

@NightFury ok small frustration vent incoming. I was talking to a crisis service about the traumas I've been through and the person kept pushing for me to contact emergency services, despite me telling them I'm safe and not in any risk and not at any point did i mention Suicide or self harm so that wasn't even in question. Anyway the last message they sent was 'we have contacted emergency services on your behalf, take care'. Like honestly what a waste of resources when there was absolutely no reason for them to call emergency services, big face palm moment. So now I'm waiting for them to show or ring which they usually do and I have to explain that they aren't required.

And yes just to reiterate, I'm safe.

@MissGremlin thank you for sharing and for sharing that you're safe.

This has become kind of a fear of mine too, if I reach out am I going to have someone come knocking on the door.

I don't know if it helps? Maybe try and see it as them being concerned about you? They read something into what you were saying to them that made them want to protect you and keep you safe. Maybe flipping it and seeing it as the fact that someone was worried about you?

@NightFury it would have been understandable though if I had said something to make them believe that I was at risk. But literally the brief conversation we had was just me telling them things I've been through and nothing that warranted emergency services being called.

Whilst I do appreciate the concern it's more the frustration knowing that those services are valuable and shouldn't be used when it's completely unnecessary.

Anyway now it's just a waiting game and having to explain the situation to them.

I'm up and dressed now and thinking I might build my Lego that I got yesterday.

@MissGremlin I hear ya! thinking of you and here if you need!

Good luck with the Lego. I need to do some study.

Thanks @NightFury.

Hope you can get some study done, sending you those studying vibes 😊

Hello @NightFury, I'm feeling stressed and anxiety is running high at the moment. Feel like my biggest fears are becoming a reality when it comes to Casper 😞.

Hey @MissGremlin what's going on with Casper to trigger this anxiousness in you?
