Re: Sleeping too much
Hi @Former-Member,
I believe some people act in accordance with fulfilling a need within themselves also.
I don't know this friend, but I think to place moral high ground on how, what & when you should be living your life isn't her place to say.
You mention she pops by a bit.
I see that this must serve a purpose & place within her own life.
That's fine, & friendship is a beautiful thing
But I think when someone become's too bossy, or tries to tell me how I should be living my life, I begin to question the two way street concept of the friendship.
Some people mean well & simply over step the line.
Hopefully this is all that happened.
It's a real positive to draw your boundary back with this friend.
To me a true or like minded friend will understand this, & return.
Hmm I hope I've explained more clearly what my metaphorics meant!! ☺❤

Re: Sleeping too much
Thank you @Decadian.
I hope your sinuses clear up soon.
Nothing worse, it's wearing.
My flared last night too.
Maybe it's the up & down weather.
I think stress too.
It's really great to see you back. ☺❤👍🎇

Re: Sleeping too much
@Former-Member. Well done for recognising that SI and anxisty do not need ti co exist. That's a very meaningful AHA moment.
RE; your church friend. She may have simply put her foot in it accidentally. Or she may be the churchy type who needs to feel useful and visit the 'needy' - to get her quota of good karma in. People like that don't care to understand a condition like MI. But you need to trust your judgement as to who she genuinely is.
I think you are starting to find your authentic voice / self. Do not over think what you said.
Just focus on today.
Well done again with your Light Bulb moment.

Re: Sleeping too much
Hi @Decadian. Thank you for your encouraging words. My son is the most precious thing in my life. But I cannot make his father see him as precious as I do. That is the way his dad is. That is our reality.
I just have to put harm minimisations in place to help my son realise he is worth far more than his father believes.

Re: Sleeping too much
Oh dear @TAB, did you have a 'crapola' episode?? lol Didn't see any of that. I've had plenty of mods Yale mine down, I use to drvostate me at first, taking it personally, sometimes its over the top to but hey, its a new day. I was wondering how your health is? you were pretty crook last week re infection & all.
I'm watching Avatar, good movie. Slept on - off all day (my bad), but my son rang which was really nice.
Hope you're well on the mend. Behave yourself lol

Re: Sleeping too much
We'd reelly miss ya @TAB now that we know what you dish up ... we are kinda used to it .. ooops maybe I shouldnt speak for others.
@Former-MemberThis conversation helps me a lot ... to deal with ... the monster bigger than any black dog ... that took up 15 years of my brother's and sister's lives and then mine.
I needed to pull that SI monster out of my head and to poke and prod it .. check its dimensions .. and its weak points ... and make IT conform ..
not you @TAB .. lol
I really like the spirits living in the wood @Decadian .. just say hi to them and dont get too carried away.
Tot ziens
