    @lovemimoon yup cavalier King Charles spaniels are EXPENSIVE - not illegal but quite often breeders will have a litter of puppies from a dog and then sell the adult dog on once they’ve got what they wanted unfortunately but she’s safe and got a loving home with us now . She’s got to have her first season and then we’re able to get her spayed

    @Apollo That's so cute! What's the hamster's name?

    @Millie2787 What kind of fish? I heard some are very territorial

    Sorry to hear @independent_ well I hope you enjoy your pizza. I'm okay I guess, things haven't been too bad today but in true irritating anxious fashion, I'm worried that my worrying will come back :p still way better than before anyway thanks for asking :) any plans for the day after your pizza?

    I understand that @Past User it’s like you get a break from worrying then you worry why you’re not worrying :joy:

    My pizza was great! Not got much planned tbh I’ll probably just put TV on.

    I am the greatest mini golfer of all time

    Lost course one badly

    Made a comeback and crushed everyone course 2
    2 hole in 1s
    2 hole in 2s
    A mini golf performance like you've never seen, every hole was my canvas and my club my brush.

    One day I'll make it in this world as a professional mini golfer, until that day I train, putting through windmills and through loop de loops until I'm the best there ever was

    @Passionflower I have, for a very long time but it's starting to take a toll on me physically. I go to the park for calm myself down but that seems to be the only thing working so far. Any tips?

    Tell us how that podcast goes!

    Sorry for the delayed response. I'm sorry to hear that it has started to affect you physically. I'm glad that going to the park was able to help you to calm down somewhat. Other than that, what are the things that you've tried already but don't find effective? Apart from going to the park, perhaps writing down your thoughts and feelings or listening to relaxing music/meditations/breathing techniques could help. Alternatively, perhaps trying some distraction techniques could help? How are you feeling now? In terms of the podcast, I think I just ended up listening to some rain sounds instead but to be honest, I don't even think that I listened to them for long either as I was getting quite sleepy anyway lol

    @Apollo Sorry for the delayed response. I find that guided meditation can help. I think that sometimes you might need to be in the right mindset to listen to it and follow it though. I really love the Sleep Cove podcast by Cristopher Fitton. It's the one that I always listen to. I don't really care about the sleep stories that they do but I love the guided sleep meditations. I don't know, there's just something so nice about Sleep Cove's ones in particular ​for me that makes it so good. I think it's the background music that they use which puts me in some sort of trance haha, in addition to the voice
  • lovemimoonlovemimoon Posts: 2,318 Boards Champion
    @Passionflower Heey! I have a journal I use when I'm having a really bad day. The ones that weren't effective? Long list. :joy: On the other hand, I indulge in way too many distraction techniques. I bury my issues in them.

    But hey. How are you??
