    Thank you @sinead276 .

    @eylah That sounds really lovely and I hope you enjoy the trip and find one that feels right for your space.


    I don’t think you’re stupid at all. Wanting to give someone another chance just shows how much you value love and connection. It’s normal to have doubts, especially when your heart feels heavy. The colder months can make everything feel harder too. Whatever happens, please remember you always deserve kindness, support and warmth.

    @Nemuritai I know it’s not easy to open up, especially when things feel so heavy. I want you to know that I’m really glad you reached out, and we are here to listen. You don’t have to go through this by yourself, even if it feels that way right now. It’s okay to feel overwhelmed and it’s okay to not have the words for everything. Just being honest about how hard things are is a brave and important step. You matter and what you’re feeling matters. We are sitting with you in this, and you don’t have to hold it all alone.

    Just wanted to say I’m really proud of all of you for pushing through everything you’re dealing with. You’re doing the best you can, and you are stronger than you think. I hope you all get some lovely rest tonight.

    @Nemuritai @Ech0 thank you both. It does help. There's so much I could vent about, just feeling so confused atm. I need a good sleep too I think. And going to do what was suggested in chat and make a list of things that need doing with times beside them.

    Today's been really difficult. I felt really triggered by something earlier and kind of broke down for a bit, and I just feel so tired and sad right now that I'm not able to do much, which I feel guilty about.

    @Nemuritai I am so sorry yesterday was a difficult day. It’s okay to have days like this and I completely understand the feeling of guilt that can creep in afterwards, but please know that needing rest does not reflect negatively on you at all. It’s simply your body and heart asking for care, it is a part of healing and you absolutely deserve it. We are glad you are here and we are listening whenever you need.

  • Ech0Ech0 Posts: 67 Boards Initiate

    @Redemption I hear how heavy that feels. Setbacks can be so discouraging and it makes sense that you’d feel doubtful right now. But they don’t define you and don’t mean you have failed at all. They show how you’ve been trying and working hard which is a testament to your strength.

    Every step you take, even the small ones, matters. I hope you can give yourself credit for what it takes just to keep going.
