The Weekly Friday Feast

The Weekly Friday Feast

Thank goodness it's Friday (or TGIF as some say!)

We thought we would start a thread where we could come together every Friday and "share a meal" and debrief about our week.

To participate, there are 2 requirements -

1) Bring a (virtual) plate of food

2) Bring a topic of discussion

So pull up a virtual chair, post a picture or description of what (virtual) dish you're bringing along and say hi and let us know how your week was.

Looking forward to seeing you at our first Friday Feast!

Chat soon 🙂

@PeppiPatty Don't forget to be very careful about looking after your own health needs while you are helping so many others. It's important to have boundaries if you have health problems yourself. I know - I was a carer for many years and still find myself operating that way with friends. If the person you mention does need health care because of the dep't of housing problems he can get the doctor to document it and use that as leverage with them.

@eth
I. Know Friday feast is over but thank you. For many years I did support carers work....... I got burnt out.
I'm very lucky because I have my husband and.....after a year I caught up with my Psychotherapist
I'm not bothered going there again and Ille write one more letter that's it.
Thank you
Will tell you more when he comes over to pick letter up. I'm not allowed to see him unless my husband is here because I'm no good with boundaries

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

@eth ... so very well said, it is something that I'm still learning, we can all help each other, without taking the problem on ourselves. People with lived experience know how terrifying it is and sometimes we try to hard helping others and take their problems as our own.

Again eth well said/written 🙂
