Hi @helgyafy @tinywhisper11 @mytwistedsoul
I hope you don’t mind me creating this thread. I’m sorry, I haven’t been online lately and I couldn’t find where we’ve chatted before. I think of you all often and the kindness you’ve shown me, and I wonder how you’re doing. I really hope you’ve been well. I’m sending you prayers. Please pray for or think of me too when you have a moment. Please let me know how you’ve been.
❤️
@Tinywhisper11 Hi 💖 I wrote a post in trauma support that I asked to be removed cause of spelling mistakes. But I see that maybe you wrote a response in it?
If you did I'm so sorry that it's gone now, I hope it didn't upset you. I'm sorry 💖💖💖💖💖
Do you want to share again?? I know it's not the same as the first thoughts we get after reading something. But I'm always here for you 💖 I can always write the post again 💖
@BlueDarkAurora awww honey don't worry💖💖 I was just writing about bad memories coming up, but I've already shared all that anyways😊💖 hugs you tightly 💖 I love you 💗💗
@Tinywhisper11 I understand how hurtful and uncomfortable it is when bad memories resurface. The more we try to ignore them the harder they seem to knock.
Maybe we can see it as a sign that we're getting stronger 💖 Our minds recognising that we might finally be ready to start healing the hidden wounds.
It's not easy, I know 💙 And I wish I could keep those memories far away from you, from me and from everyone who still feels the pain.
I can't do that but I can be here, holding your hand, making sure you know you are not alone in this 💖💖

@Tinywhisper11 heheh
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas Hope you're doing alright :) 💞
@BlueDarkAurora You sweetest person ever. 🥰 Yes I’ve actually been feeling not too bad the last couple days! I found a new social group to try, my first meeting was last night, and I had a really good time. There were more people my age with similar personalities. We had a conversation about being introverts. ☺️ I’m trying hard to not be so negative.
How are you doing? It’s been so good seeing you around again. We missed you. ❤️
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas It's so good to hear you had a good time! I'm proud of you for trying a new group! Good for you Pieces! ❤️
@mytwistedsoul Thank you! 😊
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas
How are you, my dear sister? I am so grateful to have you here. So glad that your never-ending support has been by my side❤️
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas yay that's so nice to hear 💖 I hope you get to make so many close friends too :D And awwwwww 💖 Thank you I'm alright 💖
Do you guys ever feel afraid of losing who you are? Like the world might slowly blur your values and beliefs or reshape you into something you don't recognise...
@BlueDarkAurora Yes, all the time. It feels like there's no common ground anywhere. Everything we're fed through numerous outlets, desensitizes or emotional charges. Fear or anger. Two of the most powerful emotions... But I may be misunderstanding your question.
@mytwistedsoul no, it fits ^-^
The world with its quiet expectations and all the things that are considered normal... When do we start slipping into that space? When do we notice and call ourselves back? What assurance can we give ourselves that we'll hold on to what matters?
So many questions... Please feel free to absolutely ignore them xD
Thank you for responding :) it's nice(?) to know that someone understands💙
@BlueDarkAurora ok so far I've wrote 3 tell us and deleted them all, cause I'm not sure what to say, sorry😕 I get what your saying sometimes I'm grateful for living in my own little bubble. Sometimes it's ok to take a break from the world, to reclaim old hobbys/interests that made you once smile💖 or find new hobbys/interests 💖 the world can feel like it's left you behind 🙁 I'm sorry you feel like that🙁 hugs you tightly 💖 you know I'm right here for you we all are 💖 what is that person you want to be?
@Tinywhisper11 The admiration I have for you keeps growing 💖 and I'm so thankful that you tried your best to give me some words of encouragement, that means sooo much to me 💖
I'm okay, I'm not lost but sometimes I feel like what if I change in ways I don't want to? I have my own little bubble too but I guess we all have to step out someday. It's alright though ^^ we'll do it with a brave face.
You say such nice thing and you really do know a lot about how the world is and the way people struggle in it. That says a lot about your empathy and your kind heart 💖
I want to stay the same, I like who I am :) I hope the world doesn't reshape me. But you know what? Your response made me realise that I'll always have a place in your corner, and that'll serve as a reminder that the world cannot destroy our hearts, no matter how much it tries. Thank you for being here Tiny 💖
@BlueDarkAurora I love the way you are now too 💖 change is inevitable, but always make sure that wherever you find yourself, happiness is key💖
@BlueDarkAurora I’m sorry for such a late response. I hope it’s ok to still respond, I tried the other day and it erased on me, I’ve been doing that a lot lately, but it’s really important to me to acknowledge your post.
I have this fear too. Then I also have times where I question myself and push myself to conform. When I saw you express this fear, my inside voice cried no no no please don’t change!
I had something much more eloquent written before, I wish I could remember it now.
I don’t like that life is so much harder on the kindest people. If I could let you into my mind to show you the impact being yourself has had on my life. There have been days where I’ve logged off here after reading one of your messages, and I take a deep breath and think maybe I am ok. I don’t want to make it about me though. It’s more than your support, it’s the way I see you talk to other people, the way you talk about your experiences and the wisdom you share about life. It’s the inspiring insights you have. What your heart wants, the beautiful way you see the world, it matters.
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas
Your question about loneliness gave me the courage to ask this. It's something I've been dealing with and as a result I've drawing a lot of negativity whenever I try to write a response ^^ I totally understand how feelings can be when they don't want to get dressed up in pretty/positive words.
I hope you know that your messages don't have to be filtered, the longer they are the better. It might be helpful to copy a message before you hit post :)
I love it when you share your experiences so please do make it about you too 💕
I'm sorry that you understand this, it's hard to know when change is productive and when it's destroying the parts of ourselves that we've always loved. Often that destruction comes from the changes we make to please others or to fit in.
I just want to assure you that You, just the way you are, have a place in my heart. Even if we don't talk much, or even if someday not at all... I'll still remember you as someone who saw so much in me, and not just me but in everyone you met.
I have and will always have a lot of love and respect for you 💖
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas You deserve to hear that more often💖 You earned it 💖 I wish more people around you realise what a lovely person they are in the presence of *-*
You don't bother anyone 💖 it's so nice to have you around.
I don't know how to answer your question, cause I'm fine really but then when I'm trying to write something I'm like
XD
@BlueDarkAurora That cat and your answer makes me think maybe you still have a lot on your mind, but you can get into that mode where you are going about doing what you need to do?
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas haha I'm just being dramatic 💖 But I'll try yes ^-^ How are you doing? 💖
@BlueDarkAurora ❤️
I’m doing alright, thank you for asking. ☺️ I’m not feeling depressed, so that’s good! I’m in mommy mode. I’ve been feeling a little helicopter ish over my son who has the seizures. I’m trying not to be so overly cautious that I stop him from having fun. I keep waking up from nightmares about it, or I just so happen to wake up but my first thought is to check on him sleeping or something and then my adrenaline keeps me awake. I don’t mean to make it sound like I’m bad though. We’re having a nice summer together. ☺️
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas Glad to know you're doing alright 💕 And mommy mode is the strongest mode that has ever moded haha!
I know everyone is different but as a former kid, I think the helicopter-ness is so much appreciated than it seems (maybe not always in the moment) when it comes to situations that feel terrifying.
I understand tho that it can feel like a surrender of freedom but sometimes we just can't help it 💛
It may feel like fear has taken over your mind but really it's just love trying to show up in every way it knows how... To make sure it feels enough, to make sure it's seen enough. I know it'll take some time to adjust to all of this but you'll figure it out 💕
It's so nice to hear that you're having a fun summer ^-^!!
@WorkingitThrough2 @PiecesOfWhoeverIWas @BlueDarkAurora @Tinywhisper11
Sending light and love to anyone that might need some! ❤️

@Tinywhisper11 Well hello there fellow cupcake! How are you Tiny?
@mytwistedsoul 😱😱😱😂😂😂😂 I'm not great so I've been isolating myself even from cups this past week🙁 but I'm trying very hard💖 I love you soul 💖
@Tinywhisper11 I'm proud of you for how hard you're trying. It's hard when there's so much going on inside us.. the memories, the thoughts.. We're here for you. If there's anything we can do to help you.. we're here. ❤️ I love you too Tiny ❤️
@mytwistedsoul thanks angel 💖 I think there's a few things I need to work through mentally which is why I haven't been around this past week, but I'm getting there 💖 also it's Joshuas birthday on the 30th of this month, which is always never a easy time. But don't worry about me, I'll be ok 💖😁💖
@Tinywhisper11 I'll worry anyway just because I care ❤️
@mytwistedsoul 💖💖 thankyou
@Tinywhisper11
@BlueDarkAurora 💖😁💖
@Tinywhisper11 It’s ok to take time for yourself. ❤️ There are days we don’t always want to talk or be social. I hope on those days you still always know that you are loved and thought of by all your friends here.
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas aww thanks💖
@Tinywhisper11

@Tinywhisper11 Here's Soul dipped in water... Let me go xD
@BlueDarkAurora I'm a little teabag! 😂😂
@mytwistedsoul come here little tea bag😋😋
@BlueDarkAurora ok I'll eat soul😋
@Tinywhisper11
@BlueDarkAurora Soul dipped in water sounds gourmet 😂 I better see some 5 star reviews! 😂😂
@mytwistedsoul I give you 4 stars, cause you were a bit chewy 😋
@Tinywhisper11 Chewy!?! Where did you get your chef? McDonald's? 😂
@mytwistedsoul 😂😂😂😂😂
@mytwistedsoul hahhaha yes
@mytwistedsoul aww :D
@mytwistedsoul Oh no, you really were spicy that day! Feeling better now? It sounds like you do a lot of work outside. It can catch up to you fast in the summer. I used to love the heat of summer and could tolerate it a long time, but not so much as I’ve gotten older.
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas There is a lot of outdoor work and it's been hard to keep up with it all because of all the rain we've been having. The weather this summer has been strange. It's been unbearably humid and storms seem to drop inches of rain at a time! Unfortunately, bronchitis has is now being a problem, but it seems to be getting better. I hope you're doing well!
@mytwistedsoul poor angel🙁🙁 I hope you get better quickly 💖
@Tinywhisper11 Thank you! ❤️
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas
A bunch of men just asked me to go out😁 I was in the men's toilets though
Some days, you don't swim. You don't dive. You just float and that's enough 💙
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas I just made dinner reservations with my friend's mum 💖 but my friend got really angry😕 apparently that's not what he meant when he asked me to take out the trash
