Happy Tuesday!

Chat breaks can be tough. Theyre important to prevent burnout, breaks are good for both us and the mods.

But theyre still tough, because its hard when you don't have access to a form of support you feel comfortable and happy using. And I know creating your own post can be scary.

So I wanted to check in on how everyone else is doing. Im lucky to still have other support but i know not everyone does. Sending so many hugs.

How are you?

Is there anything you'd like to get off your chest? (Good or bad)

What is something kind you can do for yourself? For example having a warm bath,giving yourself time to doodle, eating your favourite chocolate.

Lastly would you like to share a photo of something that makes you happy. Like a pet or your favourite book.

Sending so many hugs to everyone. Sorry if this was weird.

You're awesome!

    Hi @SpaceOtter I’m doing okay and haven’t been in chat for a while anyway. I just wanted to say this post is so lovely! We’re all so lucky to have you here :) Remember to take care of yourself too <3

    Here’s a photo of cherry blossoms that I took! It reminds me of spring which makes me happy - I hope it can brighten up others’ day as well <3

    @JJLemon18, oh no your skin condition sounds really tough! I really hope that you'll be able to get some effective creams and lotions that help with the itching! Luckily it's not too serious for you. And thank you so much, I'm really glad to hear that you can relate - her skin is much better now which I'm really happy about, I think she just had a really terrible flare-up 2 days ago.

    I'm so sorry that you haven't been doing great - I hope you're feeling better and that you're prioritising self-care whenever you're feeling overwhelmed and tired.

    Also I really love the photo you took of the cat in your hedge!! <3
