Anybody want to vent or chat about anything? w/c 17.11.25

hello hope everyone is having a nice day

@Nemuritai I’m really sorry I didn’t get to reply to your messages on the previous thread earlier. You didn’t deserve to go through any of that alone.
It makes so much sense that it still hurts. When people act like nothing happened, it can make you feel invisible in your own story. That’s such a heavy thing to carry, and I’m really sorry you’ve had to. I wish you’d had someone back then who could give you the support you deserved and still deserve.

The way you talk about wanting to work with kids and give them the love you didn’t get is touching and says so much about who you are and about your strength and kindness. Even if it doesn’t feel like healing yet, I think it’s already part of it.

I know that feeling of wishing you could go back and comfort your younger self. I think a lot of us carry that ache. But maybe, in some way, every time you show kindness to yourself now or imagine a better future, you’re doing just that.
You’re not alone here. You’re allowed to feel everything you’re feeling. You’re allowed to take up space. And you’re allowed to hope, even if it’s fragile. We are here for you.

Hii @Ech0 - I'm doing alright, just tired heheh. How are you?

I am okay thank you
hope you manage to get some good rest

@Nathan I am very sorry I realised I also missed your message in the previous chat.
I’m really sorry you had to go through all of that. It’s heartbreaking to hear how much you missed out on growing up, and how deeply those losses still linger. That ache doesn’t go away easily, and it’s not something you should ever have to carry alone. I agree with what you said and it really stands out how thoughtful and empathetic you are which goes for everyone here in this supportive lovely community.
You deserve to be met with kindness, patience, and understanding every step of the way and you have us in your corner.

Hey there

I'm kind of struggling to be honest, but dw about me

And about your previous post, I'm here if you want to talk about anything at all. I know things have been hard recently and if you'd like someone to listen, you've always got me

I don't really know how to say this since talking about feelings is really hard sometimes, but everything just feels so heavy and painful right now, and I just don't want to feel or think anymore. I'm safe, but I'm finding everything really hard right now and I don't really have anyone else to turn to, which is why I'm saying this here.

So frazzled at the moment. If that’s the right word. There’s stuff everywhere, a list of a million things to do that I have plenty of time for, but i feel like i have no time at all. Maybe it’s energy instead. There’s stuff everywhere, well my definition of everywhere which probably isn’t everyone elses but it’s everywhere to me. I don’t remember the last time I did any form of serious self care.. realising I actually don’t know how, because i resort to scrolling on my phone instead. It’s currently 12.11pm as I’m writing this and i’m still fucking about on my phone and not ready for the day at all. As this post might show you, given that I’ve just read it back and I’ve written the same thing twice, my memory is awful. Absolutely awful. Is this the trade off for not living in a state of constant anxiety or not actually feeling depressed? Because i don’t know what’s worse.

Hope everyone has had a good tuesday today - and if not then at least the day is nearly over and we can go again tomorrow.

sending hugs to whoever ends up reading this

Hi there @independent_ . I just wanted to say, I can relate to what you're saying in some ways. It sounds stressful and maybe quite exhausting to be feeling that way.

Sometimes when you're low on energy or have a lot on your mind, it can feel like there isn't enough time in the day to get everything done, or like there's too much to do. I've definitely felt that way in the past. It's understandable and valid to feel that way, although it can be difficult to deal with.

Self care can definitely be hard sometimes, especially if you haven't practiced in a while, and that's okay. Sometimes self care can simply be taking a few minutes to stop and breathe, or taking a moment to notice how you feel. I find making warm drinks to be quite relaxing as well, but of course everyone is different. I guess what I'm trying to say is, self care doesn't have to be anything big or fancy, and anything that feels nourishing or uplifting works well.

I hope this helps even slightly, and I hope you have a good rest of your day/night
