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: I Re: Living with Ourselves

Hope that you had a peaceful sleep @Former-Member

mine was not the best.....

eventually slept which is the ultimate

yes I have lived in another country for several years...no best not to mention as again is distinct and could identify me...

cloak and dagger stuff....

I have many more pictures of stockholm and Gamla Stan in Sweden....Norway and Denmark...historic castles...

a great way of distracting for me....

realising also that the world is so huge...life is going on all around us ....there is hope and we can have dreams...

let me know if you would like me to tag you for more mind travelling around the world...

if not that is fine also...I do understand...

take care lovely bella 3

Re: I Re: Living with Ourselves

Mind travelling around the world is good @Sophia1

It’s a good distraction.

My sleep is often unsettled, even with sleep meds.

I have to try and have another break from them. They cause my hair to fall out and my eye sight gets blurry. Good sign to have a break. Not easy though.

Sorry your sleep wasn’t good. Life would be easier to cope with if we had good sleep.

I am slow again this morning. Just lit the fire, house was freezing. Sunny out though.

Need to make another strong coffee. ☕️

Please feel free to tag me. That would be nice.

I’ll make a cuppa and try and come back. See how I go.

💜💖☕️

Re: I Re: Living with Ourselves

Oh am so sorry to hear about the effects of your sleep medication @Former-Member

What has the prescribing medical person said about this?

I too am on sleep medication...took a while to find something that did not give me nightmares...

Frustrating when dont sleep when using medication ...

enjoy the lit fire....I love having our fire roaring...very soothing...will miss when we move from here...not worth putting one in new home as eventually burning wood will not be allowed at all...years away yet hopefully...

I will post some more pictures shortly...
