Re: rough time
@outlander - I choked on a peice of sausage a few days ago. It was well and truly stuck and boy did it hurt trying to swallow it. I had tears streaming down my face. Finally some water got it down. Its a horrid feeling isn't it?
I've been zoning out a lot too. And I sleep well! I did it at the supermarket today, and the person behind me was trying to get my attention as the checkout girl was ready for me.
You did good today @outlander. You should be very proud of staying safe, especially with triggers happening. See, so even though you didn't think you did good, you actually did. Well done lil Sis. Take that as a win today.

Re: rough time
Its really horrid feeling @Sans911 Hmm maybe its just this time of yr. Everyones zoning out. Thanks sis. ❤ Im t nervous about tomorrow though. I got call on a few weeks ago letting me know there's another women's group with bit of art involved and started last monday but id forgot pluz had the kidd and horses etc but i dont really want to go but they made the art included so it would entice me to go But im scared going back there but i feel they made the effort so maybe i should. Its suppose to go for 3 hrs.

Re: rough time
While it's very thoughtful that they did that @outlander you are by no means obliged to go. Do you want to go? Do you feel up to it with your hand and being so tired? Do things not because others want you to, because YOU want to do it. There will be other opportunities another time.
And after the last time, when you felt so uncomfortable and they were not inclusive of you, it's understandable you are scared. If you were treated the same way again, how would you feel about it all?

@outlander
good girl for staying in bed keeping warm! have some down time 🙂
do you have many commitments this week luv?
hey, i thought you might like this song ... i can't get enough of atm hehe ... i love the words to it and just has a nice beat, and i know you love music too! 🙂
I dont feel all that up for it @Sans911 i wanted to go before. Its not a program like the other one. This ones run every week but i dont have many other details about it just that they would include an art class each week or something. I feel like if i dont go then its wasting the opportunity to go but i worry as its an already established group and ita for all ages above 18 but there wasnt much interest in the younger womens group so im suspecting they are all older than i am. I dont know if im trembling because of tomorrow or because of what happened tonight. Maybe i should go and i dont like it dont go back.

Re: rough time
@outlander - I'm not living your life, but my instinct tells me that right now you need to pull back as much as possible and simplify things. Self care is an absolute must right now, and you could be again walking into a group that invalidates you and triggers your anxiety. Like I said before there will be other opportunities lil Sis.
