Something’s not right

Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

Can you show us your diamond art @ENKELI?

It's been okay up until now. 

Chocolate cake sounds good. 

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, hun, do you have a crystal ball? There is no way knowing what will happen in the future. Do you think there is a way to prevent the spiral?

Hi @ENKELI, what are diamond painting?

Re: Not Coping

Ah okay is it from fishbowl @tyme 

Re: Not Coping

I'm already feeling sad @creative_writer 

There isn't a way to stop it; I'll just have to ride the wave. 

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8, maybe you can’t stop the sadness but you can engage in self care and try to reframe thoughts to prevent a spiral. Sadness doesn’t always have to turn into a spiral. Like I’m feeling sad and uneasy right now too, flashbacks took a lot from me, but I am doing what I need to prevent myself from spiralling

Re: Not Coping

No, not fishbowl I don't believe @Birdofparadise8 . I don't really know because my sister opened the app and I just 'created' my own bowl. I didn't even look at where the place was.

Re: Not Coping

What are you doing to prevent the spiral @creative_writer 

I don't know. I watch TV and read, but not much, really. I like talking hahaha. 

Ah, okay, are you at their house at the moment @tyme

Diamond painting is an art where you apply rhinestones or "drills" on a canvas to create a picture. I completed this one a little while back and am now doing a Kingfisher.

Diamond painting for me is a good past time as it is structured and I don't have to worry about what colour to use. I tend to struggle with colouring as I get caught up in choosing colours etc. Silly I know!

Re: Not Coping

Cool, I'll have a look when it's up @ENKELI 

Re: Not Coping

That's so lovely @ENKELI ! @Birdofparadise8 , you might need to get a Bird of Paradise diamond art. It would be lovely!

 

No, I'm not at their house. My sister just came over to ask me.
