So I arrived here at midday today.
Feeling a bit lost. Everything is so ... strange.
Not sure what to do now.
Starting to get a bit anxious. A bit teary. Trying hard not to think, or to feel.
Wishing I had a bourbon or some chips or junk food. Something to keep me busy and not feeling.

Hope it's your turn to get the penthouse soon @utopia. I was thinking this might be a nice room for you
Hope you enjoyed that long shower

I think there is something in the air today @utopia - I woke up thinking it was Monday too lol 😂 I was actually relieved when I realised it was Sunday as I am pooped! So yes, that long shower sounds delightful 😚
Am looking forward to your threads explaining the tools the teacher recommends to change those thought patterns. Appreciate you sharing this with us my friend. A good thing for you to relax today as it sounds like you have a busy week ahead like I do. Will be thinking of you and again so happy to read you are feeling better 😊💜
@soul - that vision is dreamy. It's such a delight having you around the forums 🌹

That's a lovely thing to say @Former-Member. I would like to be a genie and give three wishes to everyone here.
I think the environment in which you are when recovering and healing plays an important role. Overlooking a car park can't be that inspiring @utopia but I guess you can't have everything. I'll keep sending you pics so you can at least imagine the view is nicer.
Would this one meet with your approval? Can't you just feel the stress ease?

Hi @utopia
I'm happy to read that you had a few laughs this afternoon while watching a movie. It sounds like it was a rfeally funny movie 🙂
How long are you in hospital for? Do you know?
I have been thinking about you a lot; it's just that sometimes I don't come on to write to you as I have been struggling a bit myself.
What's for dinner tonight? I have made a lentil and bacon soup for dinner. Probably serve it with toast.
Take care @utopia
BB xxxooo
