I had a very nice day yesterday and i am looking forward to a nice swim lateron but some disturbing feelings come up from time to time. I joined a group abt. 6 months ago which became very important to me. Now all over sudden i get this fear of loosing them, i have not given any reason to believe so, but the fear still comes up. guess it is a leftover from traumatic experience from bullying, i deal with it with meditation, will also try to be more present in trauma sessions but just wanted to post this, may be somebody else had similar experience.
@amiableTurtle9543 HiTurtle, it's nice to see you today.
I'm sorry for your woes, but I'm glad you have some of the proper tools to deal with them. You are definately not alone with fear of abandonment. I get it myself. When I have those thoughts I do my best to think about them. See if they are real and based in fact or if I'm worrying when I don't need to. I know how tough it can get. Perhaps you should go swimming as you had planned and turn it all around? I hope you have a wonderful day.
@Raveninthelabrynth
thanks for replying. i think i bonded after a long time again and fear that i am not worthy enough , guess that is all. it is something i have to overcome. i will go swimming later when the sun is down. i had to get it off my chest, so grateful to be here.
@Raveninthelabrynth ur so awesome u really are a superstar!!! :)

Hi everyone,
Today is a pretty good day for me. I must admit that it is a little cold outside and my down comforter was very tough to shed this morning. It was a busy week so relaxing, calming my thoughts through meditation was a nice way to begin my day. The sun is shining today so it is perfect for a long walk after I finish a few things. Ah yes, my way of adulting as some chores still require a bit of negotiation (even at my age 🙂). I hope I am not the only one as I need some new ideas to reward myself every once in a while. 💡 Feel free to chime in if you have some positive things that you do to motivate yourself if you are so inclined. I enjoy the creativity among our family.
Thinking of you all today and always.
@Compassionatelistener108
Thanks a lot for your words, really, thanks.

@BeeLeigh
Bee, you made me laugh today. That is a looong lecture 🤦🏼♀️
@Compassionatelistener108
Glad I could make you laugh 😜
@BeeLeigh Is it an online lecture? I used to play at 1.5 speed and pause when I needed to. Taking a third of the time commitment off can really lighten the load I found.
@Hoxenos
It is online, but idk how I would speed it up? My school uses Yuja. We have to watch them for participation points in this class 🙄
I get nothing out of them in this class, I can

@Raveninthelabrynth
You are wonderful, Raven! We are all here for one another. It is also a great example for all of us to ask for what we need and know that others will happily do whatever they can. See, you are an inspiration and positive role model.
* dont fly too far away, we are here when you are ready. School is almost over for a little break. Ah, me time just around the corner.
Hello. getting close to the Holidays and I get a lot of uncomfortable emotions and flashbacks. It was Thanksgiving day and I had washed dishes. One of our dog's bowels slipped from my hands and broke, it was an accident but my mom got so mad that she poured me a bowl of Gravy Train dog food and stood over me and made me eat it. My Thanksgiving dinner was given to the dog. This always haunts me during this season. I have never made any sense of her action. I get mad and angry at her but she died 2 years ago.
I wish I could drag her up and make her confess her abuse. Angry at her for dying and not saying she was sorry
