Colouring in can be a great way to unwind, de-stress, and to be in the present moment.
I find colouring really helps me, so im creating a space where we can share what we do.
Here what I did tonight:

I'm so sorry, I hope you feel better and that they treated you well in there. I unfortunately can't go to a triage/hospital, they refuse to help me. Just this, webchats like Lifeline etc, or my Psychiatrist. Sigh @The-red-centaur

When I have been in hospital I bring in a pile of mandalas to do. Sometimes they can be a great distraction from hospital routine. I used to do a mandala when after groups ended for the day. It was my reward and I looked forward to it. Take care

I wish I could go to a group. I emailed the local hospital. Triage won't take me in, so I don't know what to do. @Ma60
