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 miss your lovely Mermaid Avatar (from ages ago) @Sophia1

I'm a sucker for mermaids, & angel pictures.

I have an Angel, as the Screensaver pic for my mobile phone (& an Angel tattoo on my arm).

Yes you are right @Sophia1 I cannot keep up with even 1/4 of the threads (too many).

Just 1 or 2 social ones.

Did your car issues get solved/fixed?

Re: Living with Ourselves

my gosh @Adge

I had completely forgotten about the mermaid will have to look back if I can manage to traverse the technological side of the forum to see if I can find it..

Mermaids are so magical aren't they..

I also understand your wanting to stay with your original avatar at the same time.

I need to get off of here I have been on here far too long and am stiff..

So easy to get lost in time in this techno world which is one of the things that I do not like about it.

Speak another time in space...

💚

Re: Living with Ourselves

Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that @Sophia1 Yes, I hope you've gone to have a rest (& unstiffen).

Cars are so stressful.

I once spent well over $4000 on reconditioning the engine (of previous car).

Then still had to decide to get rid of it (for virtually nothing), when other things kept going wrong.

Even though the engine was brand new (reconditioned).

Talk to you later, when you're rested (another day).

Yea ok @Sophia1 i think i know where i'm at and what's going on. It's just hard to convince everybody else of the same thing.

@Sophia1

Everybody needs money to survive ... it's attached to everything i need to survive, and everything i enjoy *every comfort ... it's just how it is, I'm sorry to say ... however i do realize what you're saying...

As for laughter, smiling and enjoyment??? They are momentary moments of life ... that the majority experience, in some way or form-everyday, no matter who you are, or what you do. It's the 'chase the rainbow effect ' the sources of enjoyment, smiling and laugher, probably vary, from one person to the next... but basically, it's all the same thing ... don't forget-we live in a sadistic world ...

And how i want to get on with life and get ahead ... is totally up2 me... and yes... it's defined by MY circumstances... nobody else's circumstances ...

+I've just thought to myself then-'the doctors have been referring me to the psychiatry system for 14 years now (for medical conditions that are not even related to mental illness)'

I can't deal with feeling tense, restless, uptight and agitated all the time. It's driving me loopy...

Hello again @eudemonism

You sound very weighed down with all of those racing thoughts and feelings...

Be there for yourself as you have been there for others..

believe in you...

hard to do ...you can do it though...

I also want to let you know that I am always believing in you and supporting you within this virtual place.
