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

Listening and thinking of you @Sophia1. Life seems so unfair sometimes. I think you are being very brave and strong. Good luck with rehab. Sorry I’m running out of words but wanted you to know that I’m here for you💜🤗

Re: Living with Ourselves

You are dealing with so much @Sophia1 I can imagine the fractured relationship you have with your mother is adding to the pain from your operation. It is good you now only have 2 weeks before rehab begins. Although you are back in the pool it is hard without painkillers. I hurt my back on Sunday and the painkillers are certainly help me cope right now. I had an xray and CT scan yesterday and get results tomorrow so should be able to work out what is needed from there. Hoping there is no fracture and I won't need an operation. The pain today is worse than yesterday but I have gotten through - nearly time to try for sleep here. Toby and Cat have both come in from outside so they will be asleep soon. i will try to catch up with you again tomorrow - I have a very long day with DBT and appointments so might be tomorrow night - see how I go.

@Zoe7

Sorry to hear about your back pain...good that you had tests done quickly and will have results tomorrow ..X-rays and ct scans are taken frequently these days as they aid in process of elimination..

getting as much peaceful sleep that you can get tonight will help you...fur babies cuddling up....tension is our enemy..

dont stress about getting back to everyone...I will hear of your news or try to remember to tag. You...day at a time ..🐾:face_with_rolling_eyes:

Re: Living with Ourselves

Thanks @Sophia1 - a day at a time for you too My back pain is nothing compared to what you have been through - I hope rehab helps

Re: Living with Ourselves

Zoe we don't need to compare..pain is pain and with everything else going on in our lives it is just one more pain..
Night night..💤

hello above post with 5 pictures was meant to be sent to

@Teej @Zoe7 @eudemonism @Adge @outlander

somehow I lost the tags for you all ...

I did succeed in attaching the photographs....

which helps me realise that I am not as unwell as I thought I was yesterday...

I felt quite lost and confused on the forums yesterday...

pick and choose what you like....I tried to pick something that each of you might like...the obvious one was the cat with a butterfly impression around the eyes....thought that would suit you Zoe...

Eudemonism thought you might like the terracotta pair...

Adge not sure if you are into antiques..

Outlander I know that you love art...

In response to: Re: Living with Ourselves

Re: Living with Ourselves

Really lovely pictures @Sophia1 Yes I'm a fan of virtually any flowers...

The cat has such bright blue eyes.

Re: Living with Ourselves

They are beautiful pictures @Sophia1 and really unique markings on the cat too.

Hows your day been?
