    It's the nose swabs that freak me out @independent_ haha. Covid tests are horrible in general. Still waiting to hear the outcome of the meeting today. They are probably still in the meeting but who knows. Wonder what's next for covid restrictions

    Hi @Shaunie

    I am really glad to hear that everyone is being supportive of you and that you found your crisis meeting useful. How was the DBT stuff? :)

    No @GreenTea. I am over 18 but not a fan of alcohol :)

    Remember in the very old days of this thread @GreenTea we got through 100 pages in a week and used to have late night boards parties?

    If it keeps going like it is now 900 pages is definitely possible.

    It’s a very helpful thread to have around. Also for saying things that don’t quite fit into any other threads. We’ve had so many funny moments in this thread (think my drunk posting lol)

    “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

    Aw let’s see your colouring. Sorry you’re low x
    I’ve been in bed all day but went to see the crisis team caus I don’t like them coming at home. And spent an hour speaking about how the mind works really and helped so much. Now I’m about to watch a Christmas film but dunno which one?

I’m glad you found the chat with crisis helpful I’m glad they’re supporting you. Have you watched any Christmas films yet? I love miracle on 34th street
