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

@darwinemma just read your last post, we must have typed at the same time. Sorry to hear it's rough for you. I found it too easy to isolate there and have moved south for family support. Have you tried the day to day living centre at Rapid Creek?

I was there 1974 for cyclone tracy, then 1976/7, then 2001 to 2016. There aren't many groups for people with MH problems - that's why the forums here are so good. There is a lot of support and usually you'll find common ground with some people. Who agrees with me??

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

@darwinemma, That sounds really really really tough. I can't imagine how difficult it must be, being away from your daughter.

And you are right, we are moving into that ultra tricky time of the year when things tend to be finishing up rather than starting up. I hope you can at least feel well supported here in Forum Land. I am very socially isolated, and this is very much my entire social world.

I'm going to have to start heading off to bed now, but I'm really pleased you have joined us tonight. I hope Forum Land can ease your loneliness at least a tiny bit.

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

@eth - never heard of the centre at Rapid Creek?

Only know of the mental health fellowship at Coconut Grove. Other than that I seem to be alone. And there is no point moving as I have no support anywhere but have a great psych and counsellor here. Can't win. Probably more groups south but my counsellors are here and so is my daughter...for now. I am just scared he will pack up and move which I can't afford to do (he has family support)
