Hi,
I want to talk something out but I'm concerned that it will cause distress to others on the forum and I don't have anyone else to talk to so...I think it might be safer to go with distraction rather than talking tonight. Who's up for helping a little turtle distract from what's going on in her brain? @Former-Member, @utopia @Appleblossom? Anyone???
