Things happened that ruined my plans, like breaking my rib, so this summer was disappointing.

Frustrated and stuck

@WharfRat

Hi there, that's really annoying. I understand it's frustrating, I wonder if some of your plans can be postponed to Autumn time? How is your rib now? How long before you can heal? Maybe you have to do some rehabilitation therapy after it heals?

Hope to hear you soon, sending you good vibes and a big hug if accepted 💙

@MeaningfulSilence

My rib seems to be fine now, and I've been back bike riding for a few weeks.

@MeaningfulSilence thank you for the welcome. I love hot weather, so summer is my favorite. I've been feeling pretty depressed lately, but I have great support at Cups. It's just really hard dealing with chronic depression and everything else.

@ReadBooks7

Hello ReadBooks7! So glad to read you and happy that you find here some support 💙💙

It's difficult, I understand that, but you are doing great in looking for support and sharing how you feel. Coping mechanisms need us to make the first step, I am sure you will be able to find what works better for you to support you during the worst moments.

Btw, is your DP and nickname suggesting you like reading? What is your preference? Novels? Mystery? Adventures? 🙂

Wishing you a good Sunday ahead!

@MeaningfulSilence thank you. I wish you a good Sunday as well! My favorite books are legal/courtroom dramas/thrillers and psychological thrillers. I also like to read nonfiction. I am reading something right now about the opioid crisis in the US, and a few months ago, I read about likely possibilities for what happened to the MH370 plane. I really enjoy learning new things. Do you like to read?
