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

Hello @Adge

How are you feeling my dear friend.

I am sorry that it has taken nearly a week to respond.

I have been unwell and had draining experiences with medical appointments...something that I know you are only too familiar with..

It is beyond me that I have to spend so much time trying to explain myself....repeatedly asking questions when I am paying the business for that very service...Ask me questions to ensure that I understand...

Seriously it is logical isnt it..

I am venting....venting with you Adge with all of the rubbish that you have had to put up with as well..

Let's just vent and let it all out...

their negative energy not ours...

Let's send it straight back to them...

Visualise that...

Similar to writing on an envelope return to sender....only far far more intense...

Talk to those birds who listen to you and bring you much joy. Call them each by name....ask them how their day has been....have they enjoyed their food especially prepared by you their loving owner...

I talk to my puddytat all of the time.

Remember to congratulate yourself on all the hard work that you have done Adge...all that you have achieved...

Let go of all of the incompetent...disorganised...futile....waste of time....other stuff...

Take care my friend..

sending you hugs and sunshine

💛💛Sophia

Hello @Former-Member

This is my safe place ....

This is where you will often find me..

I do not feel as vulnerable here..

I do not feel safe in many parts of the forum....

How about you? Do you have a safe place?

Thank you for picking up that I was feeling vulnerable as well..

Re: Living with Ourselves

I understand @Sophia1 I also don't like that people can't message privately. Not sure why. What's happening?

Hello @Appleblossom

That is wonderful news about a course that you have enrolled in and local what a win...

Your son spending time with friends would be a great moment of joy and pride for you..

You have done well through everything even though at times it might not have felt that way...

You are persistent the same as I am...

I wish you all the best my dear friend as you deserve so much and far more..

write only when you can...

enjoy this next chapter in your life opening up all new experiences and opportunities as well as further self-fulfilmment.

love Sophia

Re: Living with Ourselves

Just everything @Former-Member

Just my life...

I am overtired....

still recovering from dreadful flu like symptoms and head pain reaction to 2nd pfizer vaccination which really knocked me around..

Then more medical appointments...

blah blah blah

when I am drained I am extra sensitive and vulnerable....one would not think that could be possible..

less about me

how are you?

Re: Living with Ourselves

Sorry that you're feeling low. I'm sensitive as well and try to be careful what I say on here. @Sophia1
Hmm, was going to say some things, but it's best I don't.

Yes, blah blah blah. I know what you mean.
But it's ok to say how you feel.
