What has been your highlight today, no matter how big or small? Come share 🫶

Hi everyone! This is my first ever forum post so do hope it lands where it’s meant to 🤣

Most days, I like to find a highlight 😊. Usually, that means during a walk with my dog, I try to spot something different, something cool or something that brings me some happiness. Whether it’s something big or small, it doesn’t matter. A highlight can be anything!

I love taking photos and would really like to share and see what you've come across. Something that made you smile, sparked your interest, or simply caught your eye. For me, it’s all the little things that count on the hard days.


To start, I’d like to share these beautiful birds I came across today. They like to appear like branches of a tree or the tree itself. They are called Tawny Frogmouth’s. Has anyone else seen these types of birds? My pics below -(hopefully not too small to see two in the tree on the left pic).

What have you seen today? ☀️💛🙏

@DownMoreThanUp good morning DownMoreThanUp are your newly diagnosed for having you been fighting the battles for some time. do you miss your uni days? i miss mine i enjoyed lectures so much just sitting in class and listening to the lecturer rabbiting on about this and that.

i am sorry that you are suffering from DID as well. it is no picnic is it. i find with my ptsd that either i have brain damage or my mind protects me from the worst memories as i cannot remember parts of the past they are lost to me. is it the same for you with DID?

love bun

@Bunniekins My dear i do not know how to answer your question in a short way. i just deleting many lines to explain myself remembering you cannot read long posts.

The short answer is no, i have not missed Uni or studying. Sure studying social science helped me get a critical analytical mind, but otherwise all the information i used to soak up, end-ed up being more heavy baggage to work through, rather than helping me learn to deal with myself a mentally ill person. To be honest i dumped it all, before letting a much more true understanding of reality put it back into place.

i do really relate our minds protecting us from our worst trauma memories. This is what also happened to me, and the whole event and its aftermath did not come back fully, until i began to release my inner pain and anger, and began dealing with my other alters in a productive/loving way instead of my life long denial of myself in those selves.

This letting go of everything is also how i also discovered that at the time of my assault i already had C.P.T.S.D. From the unbelievable trauma memories i internalised as a 3-5 year old living my first psychotic episodes, not knowing that this was so, but believing what i been told, that i did not trust in Jesus, for when i prayed to Him He would not heed me. And so let myself be tormented night after night for years on end. All of this made much worse by my legalistic religious dad, who did not love me, and forcefully stopped me from daring to come out of bed because i was scared. Yet the years of the extreme fears i suffered during these times, were the fuel making me the paranoid schizophrenic i already was then and caused my horrible religious, and my poor paranoid, alters to shape in me, even at a very early age.

Hoping you have a stable day.

i love this song describing reality
