not coping

@Former-Member I think Qld is on the same time frame as Vic...although maybe you don't have Daylight Savings? I'm not sure...We may be 1 hour different over the summer.

I also would like Bear to visit, please @Former-Member ...you would think my OCD would make me clean and tidy, but generally I am too tired, and also my hoarding disorder gets in the way of having a tidy and clean house.

@Shaz51 what's wrong with your face?

Hey I have a newbie question please....

I find that I don't get all of the notifications - is there a way you can save the discussions to easily go back to and check in on your friends? I use my phone mostly so hoping there is a way??

@outlander @Former-Member @NatureLover @Lee82 @Shaz51 @Eve7

Hahaha...I wouldn't dance naked either hun. I have trouble undressing to hop on the shower let alone walk around naked....I was just making a joke...terrible joke but tried to make you laugh. 🤣🤣

house work is not happening. Can't be bothered.
@Former-Member

@outlander sitting here with you hoping you are ok.

Nature, hoarding disorders are horrable to say the least and must be very hard with your OCD. My first ex was a hoarder and that made it difficult because even when I could get him to agree to a clean up so much of the stuff had meaning to them, even what most people would consider rubbish held something for him. Every now and then when he was out I would clean up and get rid of excces plastic bags, bottles and just general rubbish but he would notice and have a meltdown but I had to think about the health of our 3 kids as well. Please don't be hard on yourself it's ok. No we don't have day light savings here.

I think you can either mark a thread as 'Favourite' or you can 'Subscribe' to a thread...both options are under the 'Post Options' button on the top right of any post.

Is that what you meant, @Anastasia ?

@Anastasia , go to the post options and find the subscribe button and hit that, then you should get the notifications. Mine you there has been a glitch around them lately

side of my face is aching @NatureLover

don't know if it is a ear infection or sinus

You made me choke on my cuppa as I laughed @Lee82

Guys I am going to have to leave now, the neighbours are having another domestic and while I am safe it is causing a lot of anxiety and it's getting out of hand. I haven't been alone in so long that I don't feel safe and my thoughts are starting to get the best of me. Shadow is pushing her weight around. I will check back later sorry

@Lee82 @outlander @Shaz51 @NatureLover @Anastasia @Eve7

@Former-Member I've worked hard on my hoarding disorder over years in therapy, and had a lot of success with it. I've got rid of huge tall piles of stuff which were under massive tarpaulins in the back yard. But it still means that stuff piles up on the kitchen bench and on the lounge-room floor, waiting for me to disinfect it according to my germophobia. But it's way better and smaller then it used to be. I'm sorry you suffered with your ex's hoarding - it's so very hard for the partners and family of a hoarder 😞

So then at the moment, you and I are on the same time schedule, but when Vic changes to Daylight Saving at the start of October, we will be 1 hour different to you in Qld. Don't ask me if the hour is going to be later or earlier, as Daylight Savings really confuses me, lol. 😄

@Former-Member

Thinking about you, dear @outlander ...hoping you are coping OK...
