Worrying poster
I just got a random private message that just had one of those emoji pictures of a coffin in it I came on the site and decided to have a look at that member’s posts (because I thought you had to be some kind of semi-established member to send people PMs) and they are an old member who seemed to join up 5 years ago and made…

Vivid Dreams / Medication
So I put this down to an increase to some of my medication, but goodness, I've been having some really intense dreams lately! They aren't necessary scary nightmares, but just very intense! I woke the other morning still in a dream like state, not sure what was dream and what was real! For a few moments, I honestly thought…

STOP DEMONetISING US!!
Reducing our income will not reduce ill-health and disability! Also want to thank Scope for adjusting the highlighted quotes to the bare minimum so we don't need to scroll and scroll and scroll through repeats which used to drive me potty!

If all animals were the same size
Which one would win in a fight? Someone suggested a pathogen to me, but I thought that was silly, because pathogens tend to cause harm by entering a living thing, if they were massive they couldn't do that 😂 I thought some kind of mite like an itch mite or skin mite. If they are microscopic but you can still feel their…

Dark writing on purple background
I don't know if it can be fixed but I noticed since last week more colours seem to be wrong or unreadable, like this 'draft saved' box now has grey writing in a dark purple box which makes it hard to read. It's not a huuuuge deal but not sure if it is intended??

Driving lessons
I started driving lessons 2 months ago but out of 8 lessons I've missed 6. I have to pay £70 for a two hour lesson (automatic) two days before. And I keep missing the lessons due to depression. It's non refundable. So annoying. I'm out so much money and will continue to be out money. Anyone with any advice?

Scope Glitch this morning: "Comment Not Found" - Anyone Else?
I begin my day by checking my emails, and this morning, I received Scope notifications. When I clicked the "check it out" button on most of them, they opened without any issues. However, one particular notification posed a problem – clicking the "check it out" button displayed an error message: "Comment not found. I…

Holidays that are mobility scooter accessible
I want to take myself away somewhere for a week. The problem I am having is although there are plenty of companies advertising great places to go, it is really difficult to find out if places are mobility scooter friendly. For example. is there room to keep my scooter, is it a hilly area (mobility scooters don't like…

When were you really brave?
I’m interested and want to be inspired by stories, if people are willing to share of course, of when you were really brave?? Please don’t be embarrassed by the things that you were scared of…I honestly think braveness is not the actual things you are scared of but the act of overcoming those things If someone is not scared…

Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights)
Did anyone manage to catch a glimpse of the northern lights this weekend? I tried to have a look, but I think there's too much light pollution in my area to get a good view. I've been fortunate enough to see them before on my travels a few years ago, so I don't feel like I've missed out too much, but it's pretty cool that…

The coffee lounge
I've been here a few times and have seen no place to sit, and where the heck is the pot? :) Seriously, I remember decades ago there were coffee lounges that had couches and tables and shelves full of books. Where did those places go? I used to go places and see familiar faces. Conversations were easy and natural. I'll…

Putting both feet in
Has anyone ever tried to say something to make someone feel better, or as a compliment, only for it to backfire or make the situation worse?? Does anyone have any entertaining examples?? A family member the other day was talking about having cosmetic surgery and asked what people thought. When it was my turn to answer I…

Worrying
I read @Biblioklept ’s lovely post a few days ago using an analogy that sometimes it’s good to worry about things because if you showed symptoms of a heart attack and just ignored it because it’s unlikely to be a heart attack, what if it actually is a heart attack??? I’m very guilty of not taking stuff seriously a lot of…

Pairs of shoes
How many pairs of shoes does everyone have? I always think I have none but actually I have so many, like stupid amounts, I just only wear the same one pair of worn out overly comfy slip ons. I rarely leave the house so don't need all the pairs I have but I can't bring myself to get rid of all my fancy shoes even though I…
