Re: Trying to be happy, isn’t working
I hear you @Peri and I'm really sorry. About everything. Wish I had solutions, but I dont. I understand much of what you say, and want you to know I care. 😔💞

Re: Trying to be happy, isn’t working
Hello dear @Peri
Whilst it's lovely to see you, your update makes me sad to hear.
I am so sorry about the family blow up, that would hurt and I'm not surprised you feel the way you do. Give yourself time to heal Peri. You will. Sadly the relationship with your sister may not be what it was but time will allow you to accept what is.
I hold hope your heart heals quickly Peri. I understand you don't want to see friends but I recall you wishing you had kept in touch with a special one recently. Try to dig deep, if you can to connect with friends, it might make the difference and help to heal, just a thought Peri.
Please take care, always thinking of you dear friend 🌸💞💐

Re: Trying to be happy, isn’t working
Dear @Peri
I hear you, I see you, I can hear the pain you have. Anxiety is cruel.
I'm so sorry.
I wish for different for you.
For you to wake and the pain be gone. I understand that's "fluff" and not likely so I ask you please Peri to reach out. I hear you about not wanting to talk to your usual people. Have you tried talking to SANE, they've supported me in the past. I know our situations are different but you are so worthy of having someone to confide in, someone to listen without judgement.
Bottling it up Peri is like a cancer, it grows and eventually will make you physically ill. Please talk, keep talking, you are important and worthy of a voice.
Have you ever heard of Louise Hay?
She wrote a book called "You Can heal yourself" - she spoke at a conference Peri and most people were reduced to tears. If you can... have a read 💞
I'm here to listen always Peri, I think you are worth it.
Hugs and love always Peri and thank you for messaging me, it means a lot x
Some sunshine for you Peri x
