Sunday Coffee and Chat -- 23rd November 2025

thanks at @Cuddlebear its actially what i hoped for when i joined guided recovery that may be the difference i only get the councilor once a week and a group to attend once the following week it caused me have a complete meltdown when i couldnt get on the group or contact anyone,

please understand thats on me not a shot at sane un any way when my mind overwhelms seconds feel like days and in minutes ive created weeks of scenarios that have negative consequinces.

hi @Meredyth49 you have posted nothing wrong i apologise sincerely if my curiosity made you think that .

before you posted i went back to task, took furbaby for walk and seeing @tyme & @AuntGlow are here thought they likely had it covered so trying get to top of thread before responding unnecesarily.

same why i didnt let you know @moderator will soon tell you whos on yet @heartathome i thought id be saying what had already been said by now just had catch up

thats beautiful and healthy foliage @Shaz51

morning dew beads would be perfect compliment

does partner like joe satriani and mark knoffler @heartathome ?

sudoku and mahjong technically would be its own form of mindfulness @heartathome i may be wrong im just thinking that would require your attention to be present for playing i never actually played i have seen it plahyed though

i remember your relief about not taking a voice to voice position at help centre @Blackcloud are you still volunteering?

sorry if tou have mentioned and i missed it its not necessary to respond if rather not

I play " words with friends "

@heartathome Yeah I find that listening to some nature music kinda helps clear my mind a bit as well as calming my nervous system down whenever I’m feeling down and/or stressed over something. I find that the more you’re stressed out or have negative thoughts the more a certain health issue you have will continue so I’ve been trying to kinda ground myself through these types of musics. It’s nothing serious, it’s just a slight tinnitus I’ve been having on my left ear for a while. It does kinda bother me but I’ve learnt that doing some brain retraining therapy helps to distract you from it & even listening to some white masking sounds in the background can help with that as well. Having tinnitus is not really the main thing I’m worried about though as I know that it goes along with things in general that I’ve been struggling most of my life.

yeah, we used the bumpers for our one when we played since obviously it was my first time and I didn’t want the ball to go into the thingy if we didn’t have the bumpers up 🙂

Yes I did find some new/interesting stuff at the disability expo yeah 🙂

@REDLINEZ750 Yeah I’m still volunteering at the current role I’ve been volunteering at since July this year (the digital one)

Aww, thanks @REDLINEZ750 ! I think you might be a tad biased. 😁 I asked my partner if he agreed with your description and he agreed with each one! I've got tickets on myself now! 😆
