BabyDragon's Den

Hello, @Bunniekins, @Former-Member, @Snowie, @Former-Member, @Former-Member, @Faith-and-Hope, @Zoe7, @Former-Member, @OhanaSystem, @Jojo2, @Former-Member, @soul, @Appleblossom, @Shaz51, @outlander, @Former-Member, @Mazarita, @eth, @CheerBear, @Adge, @MDT, @Sophia1, @Silenus, @eudemonism, @TAB, @KobeCat and anyone else who pops by.

This is my special space and for now i will only talk here while i make myself feel safe.

For those tagged, it is because I connected with you on my previous profile. It is still going through the phase of being permenantly deactivated.

If you realise who I am or even if you dont, please do not mention my previous name for the sake of my sense of safety.

I am not up to talking about the specifics of my reason for changing but the basics are I felt I was in danger.

Anyway I will be sticking to just this thread till I feel okay to re-engage in others.

It is great that they are going to pull their weight in the house. @Former-Member So they should. Doing more craft and hobbies is fantastic. Glad you have support to do it, Can you make a contract with yourself about self care, a forgiving promise to focus on CARE rather than worrying about what ifs ...

Re: BabyDragon's Den

Fair enough! I see @Former-Member At least it is good that they are not taking advantage of you.

There is an idea that to eat healthy we can

squeeze out all the bad food by focussing on the healthy food.

it is similar with thoughts ...

by choosing to do creative things we are pushing those bad thoughts back ...

Re: BabyDragon's Den

For so long I have been a scared little child
I felt useless as people did with me as they pleased
Even as I got older the fear always stayed
I began to feel life would always be this way
Then I out of the blue the fear was gone and all I felt was anger
Anger towards all those who hurt me
Anger towards those who let it happen
Anger towards those who wouldn't listen
Anger towards those who didn't rescue me
But most of all angry with myself for being scared instead of strong
Eventually the anger faded and I even began to forgive
But not all or everyone
And especially not myself
I try real hard to but all I think is
If I had been strong instead of weak
And brave instead of scared
Maybe they would not have hurt me so bad
Now I feel like I live in a world of pretend
Where those who hurt me think they are family
Those who let it happen are oblivious to my pain
Those who didn't listen still don't hear my cries
And those who didn't rescue me think they are heroes
And I put on a mask and pretend that I am normal
