Wow
Awful. We are both being dismissed.
I don't know about you but I sense you
And me
Have worked hard every day.
My learning curve is to really accept Sanes support.
It's very easy for me in the past to give because like so many people here I'm
empathetic like
@Oaktree @Gremlin24 @TAB @Glisten @Appleblossom @Shaz51
@Jacques @tyme @Ru-bee @Patches59
Oh I can't write everyone's names.
I overshare
I fall apart easily.
I need I need to take this onboard like I give.
I need to accept that quote that I love writing here on Sane forums.
To watch my self talk
And' treat yourself lovingly as you would treat a friend who is I'll ?

@PeppyPatti to feel like "what's the point in reaching out, they won't care anyway"
to have everyone in your physical life that you like this.
I have very few people in my life who see me and 90% of those aren't Christian.
This song is... well you'll get it

@PeppyPatti do you not have a Health Care Card? If so, is the pharmacist aware? Because a Health Care card dropped my prescription costs by $60 ⬇️
Did the actions of your son blind side you? Like I said before, there is no hurt greater than family hurt.
Be careful @PeppyPatti protect yourself.
Big HUGS 🫂

I have really had very few people see me or care about me. I take solace in nature and from random smiles and waves from strangers. Oh they can see me, I must be alive. When I first joined this forum, I felt pretty invisible.
I have worked hard to build a more positive but authentic story, than the painful truth I have had to live. I can go to my local shop and a few checkout chicks recognise me and are friendly and these days I can joke with them.
For the first 12 years after I left my marriage, I quietly did my rehab exercises, one lady at the gym, came to see me and said, you keep at it, but I can see you are in physical pain. I tried a physio, who sneered, you are just going to complain. Probably not, actually, but these days I notice those in paid employment who are not doing their jobs. Yes, doctors and lawyers who dismiss me, and were paid for the privilege. I am pretty tired, but have to be grateful as that has been my path. My energy is limited and I know that there is work to be done. My hands are sore from overuse, but I don’t know how to stop doing what needs to be done. I know all people have pain and yes sometimes silly distracting games are worth it to lift the spirits. Or even the memories of light heartedness.
@Gremlin24 @TAB @Oaktree and all following along…
