Wen I do feel bad about myself I buy ppl stuff or find ppl things to help them.
I was thinking are carers working wen they are smoking? Bc I saw them smoking and then how I felt I was stroking walls n trees, they had their backs to me and I wat I was really doin was asking for help. I don't tlk to them scared of confrontation. The ignored me b4 wen I felt like tht to. Its all bc wen they abandoned me at therapy. Sorry for venting, I think ppl are thinking to themselves 'ah ffs' I been thinking alot recently. Dw I'm moving soon, wen I do how do I ignore slip ups tht I notice? Wen I moved I thought life would b better, but atleast I'm playing games for enjoyment not to passtime away. How do I work out tht I'm happy?

    Hey @ellie2000. Pepsimax might be for comfort or it might be for thirst or a sugar boost. Do you think you have pepsimax for comfort?

    You do deserve to feel heard and supported, especially when carers are supposed to be helping you. Did they explain they were on a quick break or were they supposed to be with you, supporting you?

    It sounds positive that you are moving soon and are also managing to enjoy games :)

    Hey @ellie2000 , how are you doing today? Thank you for these posts, and I agree with what @Laura_tigger82 has said above here about how Pepsi Max might be something that comforts you and that's valid. I know there are definitely certain foods and drinks that feel nostalgic for me, and so they make me feel safe <3

    You mentioned how sometimes you feel ignored by your carers at your current home, and you sense them being frustrated with you sometimes. I can imagine that feels isolating, esspecially when you're struggling and you want their help and acknowledgement. In an ideal world, how would you want your carers to respond? What would feel kind and comforting?

    You also asked about how to work out if you feel happy or not - did I understand that right? For me, I know I am feeling happy when my body is calm and maybe I want to smile or laugh. I also know I am happy when I feel drawn to someone or something, e.g. I might want to keep replaying a song I love over and over again, or to keep a conversation going with my friend. What helps you to know you're feeling happy? It sounds like you've been enjoying playing gamesd recently which is lovely!

    @Sian321 I just got back and I found a letter from management about a bug and 1 about 'end of life' idk wat thts about. Do they no stuff can b triggering, I got a long way to go yet 😀😀
    I think they r trying to mess with my emotions and make me think differently. I went in to where I am today bc my mental health gone to pot. They made it worse.
    Its about the business now, whatever tht means?
    I am not far off a move, hopefully soon. 😀
