Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Bow ,

I've been out all morning, then I went to have my 4th covid shot. Now, I'm just chilling with my forums family until 10pm tonight!

Let's pardy! I'm having a cuppa tea. What would you like today?

Re: My Mosaic

I don't drink that much tea, but because I've eaten so many sweets today, I just want a tea to wash it all down @Bow .

Here's a hot choc for you 🙂

How's your baby girl going? What's she up to?

got the terrible sads tonight. Wanna cry.

Re: My Mosaic

Seems like this sadness has been lingering for a while now @Bow . What do you think helps? I've been in that place @Bow . I have felt how much it hurts. I have felt how hard it is to get up. I have felt the darkness. I have felt that I cannot get up.

Yet I have to say, in my journey, I've had to make myself reach out. I had to work against my instincts to better myself and find a life worth living. When I didn't feel like going out, I made sure I went out. When I didn't feel like seeing people, I made myself see people. When I didn't feel like eating, I made myself eat something small. When my brain went around the world with negative thoughts, I distracted those thoughts to think of other things. When I didn't want to take meds, I did take them.... all for the purpose of undoing the unhelpful thinking I have over the years developed because of childhood trauma....

I find I now instinctively do these things (phew! About time! It's taken years to re-train this stubborn brain of mine...)

You have so much care and love for others @Bow . Let others also show you the same - because you are worth it.

Re: My Mosaic

Thanks @tyme not real sure what to say to all of that sorry.

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

That's @Bow . It's okay not to know what to say @Bow .

'I don't know' was a common phrase when my world was messy. All that came out was: "I don't know".

I'm looking around my house and I feel it's so messy... but I don't feel like doing anything about it. LOL. I'm just gonna take it easy tonight and hang out with you and others. 🙂

I feel like I have so many grand plans in my brain... it's so exciting, but I actually have no idea what I'm doing. This is what happens to a brain that never stops. It's either thinking one thing or another. It used to be all negative thinking... maybe we both have super active brains?

Re: My Mosaic

‘I don’t know’ is a very common phrase that comes out of my mouth at the moment @tyme . I remember sitting with my psychologist on Monday and she kept asking me questions about what I did last week. I really had no answers for her and I felt useless..:: terrible…. That I was just there wasting her time. Actually I often don’t have answers to get questions. But there is so much going on inside my head…. Way too much. It’s so loud and noisy. I often want to escape the world cause of the noise that is inside my head. But none of it makes sense to me… it’s just that…. Noise. A mess. I hate it. 😩
