alone where family should have been finds siblings known but never seen

this will be my last sunset from my room this summer and this is my last night where my lion demands my attention and through one look says you packed that bag again how long dont think i dont know.

i just want to say in one spot not over many threads im not afraid because of you all.

i am only able to take this journey because of you all and you need to know you really are valuable part of peoples lives even though not in person you are somehow more real than those with faces.

hell you even have faces in an aura presence kinda way i notice if you guys havent noticed every individual has various struggles every day and somehow know where the support is needed more from a post and that person is shown care, support comfort and given space to safely share what ever they do or dont want to while sharing laughs, positive picture things and genuine care for each other.

i could go on

iwont

need try sleep last night in my bed this summer too and its ok because you my forum family have been taking my rants and fears and insecurity,raw unfiltered over sharing and knowledge of my mistake with patience understandinfg and without them things id still be falling because no one else was reaching to slow me down and find a path back out.

on upside im no comms for at least 10days so i want to post this here for you guys so all know you are appreciated, you know who you are and @moderators all of you, peer guides and supports really for me ive felt such a sense of belonging i thought was lost by losing contact with family.

not one of you asked why i need to do this you know, think about where else so many people dont want to know such things as a whole, for someone thats struggled with addiction since 15 i noticed it and its a first you are truly non judgemental and have made a positive impact for me so please know your worth.

i also thought if this is here you and i know where to go see the pookinator if you want see him before i get to again.

im only going tag a few so it doesnt look like i missed a few out im going leave a shitload out and i think they will tag others and so on and if not maybe they stumble acyoss it, sorry for typos and grammar just smashing this out and lying down few hours with me mate before car gets here 7.50. deep exhale

@tyme @TAB @Glisten @ENKELI @Chasingsunsets @MissGremlin @heartathome @Mustang67 @rav3n @Appleblossom @AuntGlow @Shaz51 please let those not here know i meant nothing by leaving them out and all the support team are part of the family i speak of as they see more than others hehehee night guys will try get on before handing phone over

Cornflakes on top of porridge! I have some strange mixes, but I haven't tried that one! 😁

Your detailed description sounds really beautiful apart from the fly. Surely, they're good for something!

AI tells me flies help break down waste, are a crucial food source, maggot therapy to clean out wounds safely and are environmental indicators. Nothing in creation is without function, even the irritating things! Nice one AI!

Thinking of you my beautiful friend @REDLINEZ750 💛

Re: alone where family should have been finds siblings known but never seen

Good morning @DahliaDreams ,

I'm glad to see you here, we all know how vulnerable it feels to first post and you are brave for doing so.

I have been on forums not as long as many and are very sensitive also, anyone of the people I speak to on here are beautiful people and knowing I have no right to speak for another person I'm quite sure they will accept you as they have myself and can guarantee they don't judge totally fair of me to say so.

@heartathome @Cuddlebear @Appleblossom @Bunnie. @Bunniekins @Chasingsunsets @Appleblossom @Shaz51 @MissGremlin @AlwaysMyself I read Dahlias post yesterday trying to find poems @heartathome as it's a bit different on here than laptop and resonated with her I hope you don't mind my tagging you in to this I invited her to look into my own story so she may know we have similarities and she is not alone I remembered posting for first time in same age range, I hope you are all having a great weekend and have plans for staying cool today!

Re: alone where family should have been finds siblings known but never seen

Hello @MissGremlin @heartathome @REDLINEZ750

Thanks for reaching out to me, I am a bit upset this morning. Just knowing that there are other people out there is really a big help to me. xx

@REDLINEZ750 enjoy your trip to church. I have respect for people of faith. I wish I had some faith, but unfortunately I don't think I have any.

I hope it's a good, kind, welcoming church that you go to.

Re: alone where family should have been finds siblings known but never seen

lol @REDLINEZ750 . No, I didn't mean you were waste. 😂 I meant that they are useful! 🪰

Wow, all dressed up and somewhere to go. I thought a support worker was going with you. Are you allowed out by yourself now? That's scary to me, going out somewhere new by myself. I think you're brave! I'm going to church this morning as well. Hopefully I can concentrate. Have you got a day off today? 💛

Re: alone where family should have been finds siblings known but never seen

Thanks @MissGremlin - seems we are both dreamers -

I am upset again today because my Mum passed away - even though it was around 10 years ago. I was only speaking to a friend last week, saying that I no longer think of my Mum every single day anymore. Perhaps in saying it, I brought grief back somehow? Because now I am just really sad and I keep getting weepy.

I have also been very anxious the last week or so. The crying seems to help a bit with the anxiety.

I don't want to highjack this discussion with my stuff.
