Re: Sleeping too much

Hi @Appleblossom, happy to see you. Christmas is a drag for some of us. You sure have seen a lot. Can't believe what you said about New 4WD in driveway while collecting hampers. Someone put me on a list for a while there when I lost work caring for two kids, they came every year for 4yrs, but never after my girl died. Didn't realise it was just for the children, I became more desperate after she died that year, and not just for food. Much seems to be going to the wrong people. I've heard people on the streets become very timid in coming up their food. Wish I knew who was needy in my own neighbourhood, so the giving can be more spontaneous.

What are your plans this year?

Hi @PeppiPatty, nice to see you, hope you're OK. Panic attacks are aweful, had a couple this last few days, bit not too severe, just can't gety breath and sobbing and have to talk myself calm. They're a sign of added stress in our life (internal & or external), so please be gentle with yourself at this time, and hubby. Big hug Peppi xox

Re: Sleeping too much

@Faith-and-Hope, you said "go gently"

Re: Sleeping too much

Dont worry about me or my stuff, it's fine. @Former-Member people are on here for related yet individual needs.. some people seem to relate to others in different ways, find empathy easier, or harder, or wonder at things may have been said and may never understand them, yet some do. Tis what it is. and yes, I do my 'friendy, chatty, smarty stuff' that really gets up some people's noses, doesnt all have to come from a text book, dunno. Take what you need and leave the rest maybe? not a popularity contest as someone on here said in one their takedowns on me .. and no you havent upset me.

Re: Sleeping too much

@Former-Member, it is about you, validation of your loss. You were her mother.

Your own mother sounds incapable of sharing that soft loving care, that mothers do give.
I guess we all look for reassurance from our parents in some ways.
It sounds to me, some of the 'needs' you have she never met as a child.
This becomes life long pattern on conditioning for us, in light of abandonment etc.
It's good you have distance from your mother.
And it's hard when we have no one to share our grief with.
Keep connections with those who do listen to you, and in time hopefully this helps fulfill your own inner needs to met.
Big hugs today ❤....
Oh, your daughter was a 'sagi'..ie.25/11...beautiful.😇🌹
Best kinds 😉, us sagis roam, see wider perspectives what, nots!!!
She sees you.❤
Be not afraid to express who you are.
