Something’s not right

Riding a wave

Riding a wave

Hi all,

@CherryBomb, @Former-Member or any other @Former-Member floating around Forum Land, will you ride a wave with me? I thought I would be fine doing something...but it turns out that the something has made my big feelings BIG and now I'm in a pickle...and there's nothing worse than a pickled turtle! I'm going to go and snuggle in my bed so I probably won't actually respond to you, but it will still super help me to know that I am not utterly alone on the wave. I don't want to tag anyone else because I don't want anyone to feel they need to respond. Thank you in advance for riding with me.

@Phoenix_Rising who knows anything anymore - feeling like we are playing a game of pass the parcel!

So this isn't just my turtle brain @Zoe7 and @Former-Member? You are muddled too?

Re: Riding a wave

It feels like important people are being reactive instead of responsive. I feel super super super muddled. I so badly wish NikNik was here.

My muddle is different to yours I think @Phoenix_Rising - but I can see where your muddle is coming from though - and adding in another person that isn't Nik Or Lauz just adds to the muddle

Re: Riding a wave

Completely 100% agree @Phoenix_Rising - placating instead of actually hearing

Re: Riding a wave

I am muddled, @Phoenix_Rising. It's most definitely not just you. 🙁

Re: Riding a wave

Placating ... not the P word I would have used. But too scared to say what I am really feeling. 🙁

Re: Riding a wave

@Zoe7 Right now my biggest muddle is whether we can call the HC / use chat when struggling with suicidal ideation. My understanding is that forumites do this and generally speak very highly of the support they've received. Indeed, moderators have encouraged people to call the HC when they are struggling in this way. But the edited guide seems to be saying we aren't allowed to do that. That is my most serious muddle right now.

I super love that @CheerBear is here even when she isn't. I can see her hiding under the like button.

Re: Riding a wave

Yes @Former-Member me too - not too scared just don't want the mods of duty tonight to have to deal with something that they shouldn't have to!

@Phoenix_Rising if you give me a minute I will try to respond to your last post (without being kicked off here)
