@MissGremlin Yeah I changed the cat litter, vacuumed and cleaned, then my sister came inside crying as she pulled part of her bumper off when she was backing into the driveway. So I fixed that for her. ooo colouring? anything interesting?

@Blackcloud sounds like it's been a bit of a nervous day. You do have a bit going on with the moving and everything, hopefully once that's all over and done with things will settle for you. I'm sitting with you sweet, deep breaths ♥️

@Shaz51 oh me too! I had to adjust my Cpap pressure a few weeks ago, it was originally set to 13, but I dropped it down to 7 as I'm not snoring or holding my breath while sleeping as much lately. I'm sleeping a million times better now!

@Former-Member i've took a couple of deep breaths so far to try and calm them down. and it seems like i'll have to keep doing it until it gets to the point that these symptoms have eventually calm down...but who knows. i've been listening to my fav music to also try and help me cope with it, and im still listening to music right now to distract me with it. i dont know if the thought of having to leave my current accomodation to move to my new accomodation in a couple more days has anything to do with it haha....

@Former-Member sounds very productive, well done. I hope your sister was ok once you fixed her bumper for her. Just lots of little animals with different things in amongst it.

I appreciate you being here for me @MissGremlin ❤️ 🥺
i'm listening to my fav music to try and cope with it all. its hard having to deal with having physical symptoms related to what your going through, and how they're linked with your mental health issues, especially during adulthood 😔 i do get IBS flare ups at times, so theres that too 🙃

@Blackcloud sometimes I'll do a shower meditation, which is where you visualise the water washing away any negative emotions and feelings, the water cleansing your mind, body and soul. And the water cleansing your body with white clean energy, washing away all the dark energy. Moving stirs up a lot of different energies, not to mention memories as well.

@Former-Member oh wow! i've never heard of that 😮 but that sounds like a really interesting coping strategy to do! yet i just had a shower an hour ago 😅 but i'll have to keep that in mind and see if I can do that during my next shower! i really appreciate the suggestion, thanks for that ❤️

@Blackcloud ♥️.
I've got my music playing aswell. The physical symptoms that are linked to mental health are so exhausting to deal with. IBS is hard to deal with in itself when it flares up. What's your plans for tomorrow sweet?
