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.

Re: Riding a wave

Im so sorry to hear how hard things are for you right now, it sounds overwhelming on so many levels. I was wondering if even though SCBS and LL cant possibly comprehend or unmuddle any of the wrongs but they could support you in just getting through these moments/hours that are so hard to help you get through?
But it also might be that just talking here is helping you to feel a tiny bit less alone and heard... I really do hope it helps to be here. listening always...

I want TTT. I super super super want her right now. I want to hear her say how not ok the wrongness of the wrong is. I want to hear her say she is sorry this happened and that it should not have happened. I want to hear her say that it is so so so not ok. I just so badly want someone in my corner.

Listening to you @Phoenix_Rising
Please take time to get somewhere safe,
That highway doesn’t sound cosy 😔
Can’t you head towards @CheerBear’s pocket?

Re: Riding a wave

I am not TTT but I am so sorry this happened and I wish it hadn't @Phoenix_Rising. Look at the ocean and you'll see the people in your corner who know you and who are still here.

Re: Riding a wave

@Former-Member I don't find the helplines helpful at all, mostly because they usually hang up on me.

Re: Riding a wave

@CheerBear I so badly need to actually talk to someone. You really and truly know and hear and feel the giant wrongness of the wrong don't you. You really really really do.

Re: Riding a wave

I really truly do @Phoenix_Rising, in so many ways. I really can hear you even when we can't talk talk.

I am heading under a fluffy blanket with a lizard brain before it comes out anymore than it has already. You've got this and we've got this with you.

Re: Riding a wave

@CheerBear I am about half an hour from home. Do you want to choose a story for us to read together but not when I am home and under my blanket? I don't expect you to be around by the time I get home but maybe you could leave a story here on the ocean?
