Oh @Emelia8 😞 I'm so sorry you feel precarious here 😞 You are very much wanted here, and especially on this thread. 
How is your anxiety and your heart rate this morning?
I am OK, thanks, managing.

Lee, I'm sorry you were awake at 5am, does this mean you didn't sleep till then at all? I really hope that you got some sleep after that...

@Emelia8 @Lee71 @NatureLover There were no guideline breaks, we apologise for this confusion. We will chat to the mod on duty and clarify there were no issues here. We are sorry for any distress this caused.
For us to best assist you, please feel free to email team@saneforums.org if you have any concerns about our moderators' guidance. As mentioned, please do not post it on the forums where there is little to no context for other members.
@Lee71 @NatureLover We encourage you today to lean on each other as usual but acknowledge when it's good to take breaks from the thread or tag in other members so it's not becoming exclusive or replacing a professional service such as a helpline. Thanks heaps, please sing out via the email if you have any further questions about this. If not please enjoy your day with your forum fam 🌺
