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

on run way and she avoiding the paparazzi.. 2.. Someone spilled a cup of coffee in the computor

at Sane HQ... Steam, sparks, and panicked chaos. 3.. I'm imagining the whole thing.. wake up tonys .. wake up.

OK Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained... tonys mb 1

Hello @tonys

Many moons have passed since I was here.

I have thought of you and checked on you.

You are well settled and cared about. You have found your circle of friends. I am pleased that you are more at ease on the forums now. You have regular ongoing connection.

What is this about hospital and tubes tied to the bed? What has happened?

Youalso wrote that you rock from side to side. I rocked myself to sleep every night until I was married! When I have bad nights my husband tells me that I rock.

I had no idea that there was a connection with autism. I thought that it was feeling unloved.

Please look after you. Behave and get better at a pace advised.

I logged on to stop my notifications as I will not be accessing emails whilst away.

It feels so very strange being here. I feel like a stranger on the outside looking in.Leave a quick note when you are on the mend. If not before I go will find on my return. ProbBly observing still.

I really needed the break and much is still going on. Can’t wait to escape for a while now.
Always remembered for your friendship.

Sophia

Thankyou @Eve7

for such kind words that I surprised to receive. Unaware that you had noticed my posts.

Then again I have been unaware of so much for quite some time.

Lovely to find

The Night rockers .. OoooooO.. Maybe pull me aside one day and we will share a bottle n a yarn.

Re: Living with Ourselves

Hello and thank you for your response @tonys

I actually had tears reading through your kind hearted special Tonys wording.

Time for a chat one day sounds wonderful. Bring your musical instruments. I hope that Bookkeeper will join us also. We can cook over the fire and share an enjoyable drink together as we eat.

Share the table, the food, the talk and the listening.

My wretched post concussion is busy stirring up my anxiety and menacing my depression.

I have been able to keep the depression at bay for some time and then last year well it's all written on here somewhere.

I am very tired, confused, weary and am dragging myself everywhere.

I am literally hanging out to get on that plane and then sink into my seat and just bring it all on.

I cannot believe it is happening

I should be so excited. This I only have random moments experiencing. This is all wrong.

So I am not expecting anything from myself except to make sure that we get on that plane.

Life will still continue to do it's thing everywhere. So be it for now.

Will seek you out on my return and my head usually arrives at a different time to the rest of me when I have transversed the two hemispheres.

We shall connect again.

You look after you and Bookkeeper.

Hug Sophia the calf and her siblings and all of the other farm animals.

You will also be settled with your cousin by then closer to the sea I think?

So you have a Sea change coming up.

Do take care of Tonys as well as taking care of everyone else. Don't become a Sophia1

Big hug

Hello @Jacques

Lovely to hear from you in reply to my post to you.

It is hard when our loved ones have health issues.

Good that she is being monitored for everyone.

Take care of you also as I know that you still look after your mum and Aunt at times also.

Am off soon as you know

It will probably be a couple of months.

Probably won't be able to find anything when I return here.

I feel as though I don't belong anymore already.

I will be a silent observer for a while I think.

Test the waters.

Big hug

Sophia 1
