    On way to funeral :(
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Thank you

    we said goodbye to Nan was very emotional and upsetting 😢 😭😭😭😭. And was said “no matter what you believe in, she will now be in peace” which was nice to remember. Now we are celebrating her life with family 😊

    Sending hugs to you on this difficult day @Shaunie , that's a lovely quote to remember.

    That sounds tricky @Millie2787 Could you maybe use coloured pens to colour code the boxes so you can't get mixed up and set alarms on your phone for when each one is due to be taken? I really hope your new tablets help too.

    I just really rather not wake up from someone sending me pictures of their self harm and saying they’re upset because I never replied to them yesterday. Wtff. 

    I was at a funeral. If anyone ever asked how I feel or taken any interest in my life then would know & don’t just go round making people feel bad

    Omg I'm paranoid fucking scared. My guinea pig's droppings were a bit weird and now I'm a scared moron. She seems perfectly fine, but that good old anxiety loves torturing me. Just want to feel safe. :(

    Sending out some warm hugs to you @Millie2787 @kathleen0172 and @Shaunie <3 

    I think it's okay to tell your friend that you were at a funeral and therefore had other things on your mind Shaunie. And also that sending pictures of their self-harm isn't really on unless they've asked and you've agreed to it. I'm a self-harmer myself, so I don't see it as attention seeking or manipulative in general, but in that instance sending you pictures of self-harm and saying they're upset at you not replying does sound a bit emotionally manipulative to me. I would try to gently explain that that's not okay if it were me.
