The Weekly Friday Feast

NikNikSenior Contributor

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 🙂

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Thanks @Shaz51 - but YOU do work & I don't...

I can't remember why fish is traditionally eaten on Good Friday? Something religious? I was brought up religious, but I've had ECT & can't remember a lot of things - good & bad... overall ECT was soul breaking... anyhow....

We are actually having curry - I don't like the look of the combination of ingredients - I'm a bit fussy... - oh well, I'm hungry!

What do "normal" people do over Easter? Go to church, go on holidays & catch up with friends?? Agnostic, too poor & don't have many friends...

Sorry, I feel pretty crappy... I'm meeting my mum for coffee in the morning - she wanted to see me for my birthday - interaction with her can be stressful ~ already extremely anxious - haven't slept many hours for the last two nights - hope tonight isn't like that again due to anxiety....

Namaste,

A

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Hi @Jacques and @Butterfly sorry to hear you are anxious. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts. I have been incredibly anxious for the last few weeks but yesterday and today I feel so much calmer.

I know I'm flakey to follow advice from but I just wanted to reassure you both there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

It's so good that the both of you are here regularly supporting others and we are here to support you too.

And if you can't see the light phone lifeline or suicide call back

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Hi @Shaz51 I am okay. My problem is self harm but I have hidden it from my husband for almost a year now. If I can stay well today will be the second day in a row without harming which is a huge step.

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

I'm feeling a bit down. I think the thought of Easter is making me feel really down. To me it's always been with parents and siblings but unfortunately they're not in my life at the moment.
