Re: In the middle of nowhere
That sounds tough @petrichor, both what you're experiencing and the difficulty with articulating it. I've been there! You're welcome to say as much or as little as you feel comfortable with (within guidelines of course 😊). I'm curious about head spinning- what does that mean for you? Is that a familiar feeling for you?

Re: In the middle of nowhere
Hi @Snowie
thank you for being there. Im having my own alone wake for a friend of mine. I’m pretty sure that won’t end in smiles. I don’t care, sorry to say. How was your day?

Re: In the middle of nowhere
Hi @petrichor
Sorry to hear about your friend. It is hard when we lose people close to us.
Is there something nice and comforting that you can do for yourself tonight to help?
I am going to have a bath soon to try and help me relax. Today has been a trying day but getting through it.

Re: In the middle of nowhere
I hope the bath helps you relax. It sound like a good idea. I love baths but haven’t got the possibility.
I’m surprised how much the loss of my friend means to me. I really want to cry but I can’t.

Re: In the middle of nowhere
How was your day?
Spinning for me is when my thoughts, memories, feelings etc go too fast. It very physical too. Spinning is painful.

@petrichor I'm sorry to hear of your suffering and grief 😞
I'm glad you can express some of it here.
Sending wishes that the pain will ease for you...

Re: In the middle of nowhere
Hi @MDT @NatureLover @Snowie @TideisTurning
i hope your day was ok.
i don’t want to drown in self pity but I’m pretty over this world & people. In an argument my best friend told me today that I was a bad person and that I should take my meds and call my psych to figure out they’re in the right. It’s not the first time this has happened and I’m tired of having my illness turned on me. It’s not ok, is it? Even in an argument? 😞
