Re: Taking the plunge

Grey and black, I thought maybe it would be something like that for you @Maggie. Long night here too (not coffee at 2ish for me though). Very ugh feeling 🙁

There's so much about it (the 25th) that isn't helpful and it's very confusing and mashy to see everyone so 'happy' but to be feeling anything but. I big time feel for everyone who feels the way you do about it. It would be so hard.

I'll make you one. Heading to the kettle now.

Thankyou @CheerBear always tastes better when someone makes one for you. Perfect. ☕️☕️☕️

Do do you have plans today?

I see my counsellor at 10. Do you see your psych today? Then heading to Bunnings to buy some grass. 😁😁😁😁 I’m making a small area for fur baby. Only 1 mt square. It’s all weeds and dry atm, so I’m making a little patch she might enjoy.

Re: Taking the plunge

I had plans today, something I was looking forward to, but I know I can't do it today so it's off @Maggie. I feel sad and disappointed and am trying not to think that canceling this is the start of a very slippery path. No psych for me today but wishing it was as I think I could his thinking brain.

Bunnings and grass for furbaby made me smile a lot. Is kind of friend taking you?

The wreath is fun. A bit odd which I'm good with 🙂

Does the plan have to be cancelled today @CheerBear . But saying you know you can’t do it means you’ve thought it through, big thoughts, big feels. 💙💙

A slippery path. 💜💜 Things are sounding really tough today.

Yes, kind of friend will be taking me. She’s having a tough time with her friend. Big things happening, and out of control stuff. Others making big decisions. Really hard.

Re: Taking the plunge

I think the plan does need to be cancelled @Maggie, or it really feels like it does. I sat on the phone at silly o'clock with half of me desperately wanting someone to take me away so I could time out for a bit. I can't be that and then be OK today I think. Messy 🙁 I'm just tired I think but tired is hard to manage at times. I know it gets better and I know I can come out of this but it feels bad.

That sounds very tough with kind of friend. Tough for you i imagine, riding that out alongside her. She's lucky to have you.

Re: Taking the plunge

I’m not sure there is such a thing as ‘ just tired’ @CheerBear Getting to that place has been a struggle all the way. Tired is a ‘huge’ real. Specially when there’s no time out available.

Can you just feel the tired, without needing to know you’ll come out of it? That might be a bit silly, if it is, it’s ok. I just find ‘ feeling’ a very big one. Mainly feels are relatively new to me, so labelling and acknowledging is important. Makes them real and important. I’m incredibly simple in some areas, could take a bit of getting used to. Sorry in advance.

Kind of friend likes drama, that’s ok. I just need to be careful and discerning, and understanding. Tricky.

Re: Taking the plunge

@CheerBear I'm around for a while if you want to talk about what's going on for you re needing to cancel today's planned activity. Sending love xx I think I just saw it's your birthday elsewhere - hope it has some real joy in it and that the year to come is peaceful and progressive for you xx
