@Jupiter and others, for me, just knowing that I'm not feeling the way I feel on my own and that others also feel the same way. I really enjoy and appreciate the sense of connection here on the forums as well, so thank you☺️!

Thanks @frog it can be hard to feel graitude when so many are suffering, but I think if you look hard enough you can find it somewhere... Self-care is something many of us have to consciously learn and prioritise.

You so welcome it is a pleasure to get to know you all.
Connection is really important and sometimes we forgot amongst the chaos.
If you can connect with anyone or your family or pets it energises you. Whilst I don't have a pet I generally say hi and bye to the sales assistants at Coles and Woolworths. It's something small but it helps me feel connected with the community
