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

@Former-Member can you please check in and let me know you are watching over the ocean tonight. I feel so destroyed, that my day could go from good to bad so very quickly. This muddle is so big, my brain has shut down to protect itself. I still don't actually feel as distressed about today's adventure as one might imagine. I just feel bemused and numb. Yay for clever brains that shut down to avoid further damage. Good job brain.

I am super missing CherryBomb tonight. I super wish she was here to share the bewilderment of today's adventure. Good night @Former-Member. Super big thank you for watching over the ocean.

Re: Riding a wave

Do you really think my tomorrow will look like that @NikNik? I super hope so. From your favourite "too complex" sea turtle. 😊

Nighty night little turtle @Phoenix_Rising I hope you sleep well snuggled into @CheerBear's pocket.

I need my blanket tonight so I am going to go and snuggle under that very soon - thankyou for that - it's nice to know that you are looking out for me even when you are dealing with your own huge muddle

Re: Riding a wave

Awwwww @NikNik you are already here!!!! I feel super warm and fuzzy. Thank you for making my brain fill up with oxytocin. Oxytocin is super beneficial for puddled brains. Super big thank you for caring about me and for not seeing me as "too complex." I think you're awesome and I am going to fall asleep feeling super calm and snuggly and safe tonight.
