Re: Best Friends Club

Hello and hugs 🫂 @Glisten 😊

Have you got anything planned for today 

Re: Best Friends Club

Hi @Shaz51 😊 yay glad you managed to get to 5am this time!!

Re: Best Friends Club

Thanks @lonemushroom 😊

How has your day been 

I have not done much today except for the washing 

Re: Best Friends Club

@Shaz51 I hope it’s been relaxing and nice 😊

 

quite busy for me today

house inspection all done though and about to head to my GP appointment

pretty nervous about it

 

Re: Best Friends Club

Hi folks!!  👋 How's everyone?

 

Yay for extra sleepies @Shaz51 !! 

 

How did your gp appt end up going @lonemushroom ?

Re: Best Friends Club

Hey @Jynx hope your day has been good 😊

it was terrifying but okay, got referred back to my old psychologist and had a really huge cry talking about everything going on. trying to seek as much help as I can possibly get right now means having to go through all the trauma details with each place all over again which can be pretty distressing 😅

 

but hey I’ve been putting off this appointment for years now so, finally did it, agoraphobia and cPTSD were in overdrive but went on a nice drive out to some nice scenic areas afterwards to try and calm down (or at least dissociate in peace lol). saw heaps of roos and a really cool looking bush walking track I think I might try to give a go soon when I’m free, not too many people and the pathways look like my chronic pain might actually be able to manage it with plenty of benches around to take a break

Re: Best Friends Club

Yaa @Jynx , @lonemushroom 😊

Hope it happens again tomorrow morning 

 

@Jynx  today we took all the photos mum had all over one wall and finally hung some new photos on the wall 

Re: Best Friends Club

@lonemushroom sounds like you were really brave today!! Nice 😎

I also find a lot of soothing getting into nature after big emotionally charged or super stressy moments 😌 Double bonus finding a new place to explore! 

 

Sometimes for first appts I find it helpful to write a few points down, so then I am just 'reading them off' instead of actively trying to recall them - can take the edge off. 

 

@Shaz51 ooh nice! It can feel so refreshing to make changes to your space hey. I have finally figured out how I wanna rearrange my house, my biggest hurdle is my clutter/junk room 😲😅

Re: Best Friends Club

@Jynx yeah nature has always been the best healer for me 😊 I miss bush walking so much, aside from chronic pain my neighbourhoods not very walkable at all, so anything like that requires at least a short drive to somewhere else 

 

I’d live outside if I could, I’m one of those people who -needs- a decent amount of outdoor green space wherever I live and it’s always a top requirement if I ever need to move somewhere 🤣

Re: Best Friends Club

Little bits at a time my @Jynx 

Junk room sounds interesting 🤔 is there some goodies in there
