taking a break

Unknown userMember06 May 2018, 10:20 pm AEST

taking a break

I'm finding a lot of things really hard at the moment. I have so much to deal with at the moment in so many faucets of my life that i cant keep up with anything from here to work, to kids and health and MI that reaches across everything with a sufffocating blanket. im so tired of myself and feel stretched to breaking. So i just need to take a break and not be around for a while. i am in such a negatve headspace that its better that im not posting for everyone too i think... For now i wish everyone the best, will miss you all. take care

Re: taking a break

You need to do whatever is best for you @Former-Member. I shall argue with only one point 😘. It’s not better you not posting for everyone, your posts are always so supportive and full of compassion. I can understand that you have so much on but we are always here for you, just tag and one of us will come. You are valued and we care very much for you. Take REALLY REALLY good care of you.

Sending loads of these

💜🤗

Lj I just found this and thought of you. How cute and cuddly is this. Thinking you could do with one like this. I think I could even cuddle this one. I’m not one for soft toys much but this one I love. 💜🤗

Re: taking a break

@Former-Member - totally resonate with your decision and understand. Doing the same. When it becomes counterproductive it's time to move on. Wishing you all the best my sweet as you deserve no less and our own well being comes first 🤗🌹

Hey @Former-Member, take gentle care of yourself while you're on this break. It's more than understandable to want time-out while you re-group. Hope to see you return one day.

Re: taking a break

@Former-Member I am just back from my little break.

Sorry you are overwhelmed, but it makes total sense to me. You are carrying a lot.

It also helps that you let us know so we do not worry too much. Thought of you as I was heading home on the train. We have been hanging out together for a while now.

Re: taking a break

Your presence here will be missed @Former-Member You are often 'behind the scenes' making sure posts are being seen and replied to - for both new members and longer term members. Your empathy and compassion shines through with every one of your posts here.

Take care of yourself @Former-Member and I hope in time you will be more able to cope with eberything that you are presently confronted with ...and of course I hope you return to us here when you are ready.

Sending you hugs lj
