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.

@Zoe7 nope, having money stolen isn't a crisis! Thank you for thinking of me.

@CheerBear thank you for knowing and seeing and hearing and feeling. I'm SCARED. The crazy thing is, I was feeling fine until I got smashed by this. I even wrote the next bit for over -->.

I'm so glad that you can see and hear and feel and know the things that are going missing. I feel SO SCARED. I just managed to get an appointment with my GP for 5pm though so that has super helped. It is very unusual for her to have an appointment available.

I'm SCARED. Only wrong things need to be kept secret. Perfectly acceptable appropriate things don't need to be kept secret.

I so badly wish I was with TTT right now. I so very very very badly wish I was.

The missing Lunar and missing Pebbles feelings are GIANT. They are so so so giant...and they will be, especially on Thursdays, for such a very long time to come.

I think about you quite often little turtle because I super like you @Phoenix_Rising and super feel for how hard this all is for you

So pleased you have a GP appointment today so you can talk-talk to someone

I can't answer that @Phoenix_Rising I wish I could for you but I can't

Re: Riding a wave

To be completely honest with you little turtle - I think many of us here would like (and deserve) some answers - that is not to take away from what you have been dealing with but we can see how much it is hurting you and we honestly don't know how to help apart from letting you know we are hearing your pain and sitting right here with you @Phoenix_Rising

Super big thank you @Zoe7. At least I'm not the only one who doesn't understand why actions need to be kept secret if they are really perfectly acceptable.

My GP has apparently had a cancellation so I'm heading out now. Thank you so so so SO much.

I hope talk-talking helps you a little with your GP little turtle - let us know how it goes if you are able to @Phoenix_Rising

Re: Riding a wave

Re: Riding a wave

Wondering whether it's a volunteering and violining kind of day today @Phoenix_Rising. Hope talk talking was helpful last night.

Re: Riding a wave

@CheerBear sadly today was a lay in bed under weighted blanket with turtle and just breathe day. Today has been so so so SO hard. However, it improved when TTT called at 3pm. I am SO grateful for her, Cheerbear. I am so eternally grateful for both her and my GP. They are going to get me through this. Both of them tell me that we are going to do this together.

How was your day? What do you and the LF have planned for the weekend (if you want to/can share)?

@OhanaSystem super big thank you for your words of encouragement.
