Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Well hello to anyone who's discovered this new thread .... and welcome!!!

For some time I've noticed things are a bit quiet on a Saturday, especially in the evening. So this will be a social gathering for all forumites and hopefully a place to relax and meet friends. It's also a place where you can talk about whatever's going on for you at the moment, safely, and find support.

If you want to bring something to eat or drink that would be welcome, whatever makes you happy.

Actually that may be a good place to start - jump in anywhere and let us know one thing that makes you happy - currently or over time.

Really looking forward to finding a posse to hang with on a Saturday.

L E T ' S P A R T Y !!!

EDIT : Do feel free to contribute some music too. Of any style. The more the merrier ...

@MDT @eth @Maggie @Jupiter @Faith-and-Hope @NatureLover @outlander - I'm doing really well now, I'm sitting here doing diamond art and singing. Relaxing afternoon and listening to music with my half brother.
I'll be on and off. Babysitting my half brother ❤️🦋

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Sorry that I haven't been too involved this Saturday. My little man is developing so quickly it's just fascinating to watch.

Anyways I hope you all have had a nice Saturday!

Ooooo @Fluttershy1 diamond art sounds interesting. What do you do?

Currently listening to a Britpop playlist on Spotify. Love this track!

Hi @eth @Blep @Fluttershy1 @MDT @Maggie @Former-Member @Former-Member @Faith-and-Hope @TAB and everyone floating around this late Saturday afternoon! I've just come back from shopping and having lunch in the country which turned out to be a longer drive than usual as my friend and I made a detour to a lake reserve on the way home. I took a few photos of the reserve and had fun relaxing whilst being out in the sun. See below for a photo.

Sorry about the photo being on the side- I'm not sure how to edit it to make it the right way! I hope you've all had a great day!

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Hi @Judi9877 sounds like a nice afternoon for you. I went out with a support worker for the 2nd time in 3 months and it was great to actually do my shopping in person after only online ordering for some time. Felt quite free, but also very aware of people not keeping their distance - not too many of them fortunately. Sanitized several times while I was out.

Hi @Blep and @MDT seems like you've both had a peaceful day.

@Fluttershy1 Is there a quiet activity you can focus on that might settle your alters down? Tagging @Former-Member here in case you have some suggestions. You have had a big day Candydipper1. I feel for you. It's so good that you are reaching out. Wonder if a call to a helpline would help you? There's a list of them on the top right of the page, or else there's SANE chat in the top right corner. Take care.


I'm going out again in 1/2 and hour to go next door for fresh prawns in rolls mmmmyummmm. Haven't had them since Christmas. Sil's mum went to the fish market for them today. Lucky me!

Doesn't it just make your mouth water?!

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

I was triggered before from another person. I'll be fine. I don't know what moderater is on? I was going to let them know about it.
Going to hide with safe alters.
If anyone knows which mod is on could they please let me know?
thankyou

Hi @Snowie hope you've had a fine day. Spotted you under the support button. You too @Bunniekins and @Faith-and-Hope

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

@Fluttershy1 if you type @Former-Member it will show in the dropdown box for you to click on and highlight in your message. Whoever is on (I'm not sure) will usually respond quite quickly. They will sometimes email you privately as well. I've just tagged them twice so hopefully you'll hear from someone soon. Hang in there love. Not sure if you meant you were triggered by someone on the forums or elsewhere. With so many of us these days it's only natural that people will vary and have different experiences. Each of us can only share from our own lived experience, we are not mental health professionals, as the moderators are I believe. So we do our best.

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Hey @eth and @Fluttershy1 thanks for singing out, always good to know where a bit of extra care is needed

Sounds like you have had a rough day Candydipper - I'm also seeing that you're reaching out for help, and letting your safe alters assist in taking care of you. That's amazing, I've really seen you display some great resilience in the short while you've been with us here. I hope you're able to find some peace tonight, and keep on chatting away with this amazing community - we've got you!

And to anyone who does want a bit of extra support but may not necessarily want to put it into the public sphere, you can always reach us at team@saneforums.org
