    You're not a fool @Strawberry1! You treat other members with such kindness, sometimes it can be good to try and talk to yourself with the same kindness that you'd give to others in your situation. I know that's not always easy, though!

    You're always welcome to express how you're feeling here. Hope things start feeling easier for you soon. <3

    You are certainly not a fool, you are a beautiful caring person that thinks a lot about others.
    I feel so sad that you feel like this
    I care a lot for you ❤️

    I've just tried to connect with CALM  , I thought I'd try them to off load a bit more rather than rant more here but when I try to put my words down to post to them something is stopping me as if I feel like I'm doing something wrong by telling them how I feel and how things are going for me.  It's like I'm doubting myself . As if I'm questioning myself. I'm not imagining things I do know what goes on .

    I wanted to apologise unreservedly for my ranting . I am very very very sorry 😞. I'm not proud of myself. I hope Scope members can forgive me .

    Hello @Strawberry1

    I am so sorry you have been having a tough time recently. I hope you are having a better day today? I saw you mentioned you tried reaching out to CALM. I know it can be difficult to put things into words, to overthink and I wanted you to know that you don't have to tell them everything all at once <3 It's a process and you are not doing something wrong by talking to them.

    Keeping well thank you :) I'm glad you have them in mind. Sometimes talking about the smaller things can help towards opening up about anything bigger <3 You take care too!

    Glad you are keeping well @Hannah_Scope , that's good news. I sometimes like to call Samaritans and talk to them but I really need to be in the mood to talk. It all depends how I feel.  Thank you again for your time and support it's appreciated more than you will ever know.

    Of course, we are all here @Strawberry1 <3

    Just wondering, for days you don't feel like talking, maybe texting? SHOUT is a 24/7 mental health texting service. One to keep in mind for those days :)

    Good morning and I hope you had a good sleep.

    Take care of yourself you are a truly wonderful person so kind and thoughtful. It’s a pleasure to have you on here.  ❤️

    Hi @Lou67 , your such a lovely person 💕.  I'm very grateful for your support and kindness and time . I just like to burden anyone that's all . Do you know I ought to write stuff down . I have done before but not in a very long time . I feel very foolish and ashamed.  I am ever so grateful for your support though  . U
    You are a real gem 💎 @Lou67 one of the best .

    Thats a lovely thing to say I just wish you would realise how much off a great person you are to.
    We can all be hard on ourselves and show others love.

    Things will get better again it just takes time.
    In the meantime we are here for you.

    Take care 😘❤️
