Re: Taking the plunge
Hey @Maggie nice to see you too.
I'm on another thread and feeling challenged offering support to someone who rejects my every suggestion. Might have to stop responding. I find that really hard to do when my intentions are only to be a listening ear and try to help. I am careful never to say anyone 'should' do something, or claim something is a 'cure'. Probably shouldn't rant about it, wouldn't be helpful, just feeling a bit useless.

Re: Taking the plunge
Hearing you @eth . I tend to step back. It’s tough, as we want to support, but sometimes more is needed.
Lots of these. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

Re: Taking the plunge
I'm dressed and about to brave the shop. I've been hit with a huge wave of anxiety 🙁 Like shaking and feel sick with nerves style. I've written a list but it seems useless if the things I need aren't going to be there, like they haven't been for weeks. I've got a number of different dinners planned (like a plan A, B, C etc) but it feels overwhelming. Trying to feed everyone here, with all their fussy ways, is a challenge for me normally. I feel frustrated that "roll with it" isn't something I can do.
Venting but wanting to get it out of my spinny head :face_with_rolling_eyes:
