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

Re: Living with Ourselves

Hi @Sophia1

It's great to have you back and no! it does not sound like a naughty child at all - whatever was happening you needed time out - I think we all have that at times

It does seem as if you are having a tough time - and you need support - hey - this is the needing-support-today capital of the world - I need it too - you have come to the right place and found the right company - whoo hoo

I hear you are unsafe and mis-trusting atm - that's okay - you can reach out here and you haven't been forgotten - welcome back - and venture forth

Re: Living with Ourselves

lovely responses

loved the woohoo capital @Owlunar

@frog thank you...precious

@eth such a caring person you are, thank you

Thank you all I am so sorry that I have not been able to venture to where you write your thoughts mainly

I am not feeling self pity

I am aware of my limitations and working very heard at not beating myself up for not being there for so many even in the real world..

grief is still rife for many people..reasons..I am working through this with counselling.

You all mean the world to me ...even those of you who are taking time out...

please remind yourselves of that

you are still very much in my thoughts even when absent...nothing changes that

bye for now

💛💚💜

Re: Living with Ourselves

Hi again @Sophia1

I'm just glad you're back and I am sure many othe people feel the same way - yes - we all need to take time out and we are not giving up - we are just taking stock

Being aware of our limitations and not beating ourselves up about it is taking care of ourselves and being our own best friend - that's so important - part of learning to building up our self-esteem and so important

Grief-work is hard work - not easy for anyone and it is always different and has different facets - I am glad you are getting counselling - this will help

You are the world to us too Sophia and you were certainly not forgotten when you were taking time out

It's seems to have come a long way and this is good news and all the best for your future
