Living with Ourselves

Living with Ourselves

hello @eudemonism @eth @outlander @Bunniekins @Mazarita @Silenus @NameUnknown @Grasshopper3 @patientpatient @soul @Former-Member @Determined @Shaz51 @Former-Member @Friendconnect @Teej @utopia @Queenie @Appleblossom @Zam @perseverer @Janna @Owlunar @Former-Member @Former-Member

First of all I wanted to let you know that I have conversed with all of you at some stage on both sides of the forum..

It was my intention to close two of my threads and change my name in the kindest way for all of you...

I commenced this process on the 12th March and today is the first day that I have access to actually post or respond to anyone....I was in the last couple of days able to register a new name and like some posts...

I am so sorry that my profile ended so abruptly that was definitely not my intention....

In fact if I had done it my way.. instead of thinking would be better to be guided through the process....I would have just written on one of my threads my reason for closing my account tagging you all in....then requested account to be closed and username put to bed so to speak

I have chosen to take this path in order to protect my family's sense of safety .. privacy...health..

Please let me reassure you that this has nothing to do with any members on here...

I have tagged each and everyone of you because you have given me support and invited me into a little of your worlds...priceless experiences...I have felt heard and valued on here....Thank you all so much..

Moving forward ...this is who I am now and hope to be able to converse on the forum living in the now not the past...therefore no mention of my previous username necessary...

If you do not know who I am...that is fine also...perhaps all of the above is not relevant for you..

take care

I hope you can have a nap today, seeing as you didn’t sleep well @Sophia1

I’m going rest now. Been out this morning. Been having bad dreams every night. It’s tiring.

Take care. Catch up soon. 💜💖👋☕️

Hi @Adge 👋😊

I hope you are feeling a bit better.

Hello @Adge @Former-Member

Not sleeping well seems to go hand in hand with mind struggles....

I hope that you both have some reprieve and feel more rested soon..

bad dreams can be unsettling too...

Hopefully your virus is on the way out too Adge...

I spent most of the morning chasing up support groups which most of have lost funding... very few existing in the first place...

I finally found something that might be around until next year....will be looking into that...about 40 minute drive...sounds better than other group that I went to once just before operation..

I have asked husband to drive me to first session as last time that I drove to this part of the country I got lost several times..I have zero sense of direction...He readily agreed...pleased that I am getting out ...I was going to suggest that he might like to go fishing as is near river...he took the words right out of my mouth laugh...so ...so far so good...

all in all the best day that I have had in ages...

I ache ....certainly stepped up the mark in the pool the last few sessions...no pain no gain...so rest up now..

feels good knowing that I have progressed...

incredible the mindset...I am feeling more in control...have hope....step by step...

Ribe Cathedral Denmark

I had my physiotherapy session and he used some equipment ..utilising the theory of mindfulness...at the same time measuring my brain electrical activity...fascinating...two separate background sounds...second session showing dramatic improvement on first...have another session next week...hopefully will direct me to some meditation ideas to do at home..I did meditation a few times years ago and found it very good.

I made it to the library...borrowed two more books...humourous this time around as Jodi Piccoult one that I am currently reading is very deep as are all of hers...
