    It’s terrible isn’t it @66Mustang I just hate having to make small talk and appear “ normal “ as she doesn’t know I have Asperger and hate to be social at all.  

    How are you feeling xx

    I'm like that with my autism, like I like knowing I have friends, but at the same time prefer to be alone with no social contact. Its like a forever battle and I have a tendancy to push people away as most days I prefer just being alone doing my own stuff. Like my friend wants to come round alot and I keep making excuses becuase some days I just can't handle any form of social contact, but at the same time when I don't have any friends I miss social contact. so can't win

    I can totally relate to that because I have had friends in the past and like being really honest it was sometimes a chore doing stuff to keep the friendship going if that makes sense? I could go for a few weeks and not feel like contacting them and then think "I'd better just send a message so I don't lose my friend" which I know is kind of bad. But I made an online friend recently and I found I relate to them a lot and it's never a chore talking with them even if they are not feeling positive, it actually makes my day when I get a message. So, I would say maybe if and when you find the "right" friends then you will maybe feel more motivated to speak with them?

    Morning everyone, hope you all had a good night.

    @Lou67 Glad you made it safe, enjoy your holiday. Hopefully you get to change rooms too especially if you paid for a decent room.

    @Amberpearl so sorry to hear about bruce, sending you best wishes and healing vibes for bruce.

    @Beaver79 Sorry you've been feeling dizzy and your neck has been bad, take it easy and don't overdo yourself hopefully the exercises start to work and ease it soon for you, sending you best wishes.

    @Grinchy sorry to hear you were up early with restless legs, hopefully it doesn't ruin your day though and you manage to have a good walk outside, enjoy your day.

    @Ada Thats an early start again, I feel bad that you don't get much sleep but hope you have an amazing day and manage to rest more later.

    To everyone else I have missed, hope you all have a really good day. The weather isn't bad this morning but it was cold when I woke up. Its warming up abit now though. Whats everyones plans?

    I'm just going to make some breakfast and then have a good tidying up day today. Thats if I don't get too tired again this drowsyness is killing me.
    Thank you

    I'm not surprised @Amberpearl you've already lost a few cats recently, I hope the biotics start working.
    I've had the heating on for an hour I think it went cold

    Having a rough night, not been able to eat anything since lunchtime and was sick a few hours ago, and have stomach pain again and just feel exhausted. I was meant to have my covid booster this week too but cancelled it as I thought I shouldn't take it when I don't feel well as could be dangerous. I also have a problem with my immune system (having bad crohns) so I get them early as classed as high risk.

    Good morning everyone :) 

    @ada wow 3 hours of solid sleep is pretty impressive, are you feeling any positive effects from having a (little bit) better sleep??

    I hope everyone has a good Sunday

    It's raining solidly here, looks set in, so probably no dog walk for now as my Dad doesn't like going out in the rain unless it's just a light shower

    Thanks @lou67 I hope you're having a lovely time!!

    @ada yes that makes sense to me, and it must be even harder watching it consume someone when it's someone who you care about as well. I'm glad you can have some peace now though

    I like the idea of people coming round,but when they do I want them to go away as soon as possible.

    Is everything okay @jefner? You're very welcome to talk to us here. 

    @Rubin16, I'm sorry you weren't well last night. It sounds like you haven't felt right for a while. Have you spoken to your doctor about it? 

    Good morning everyone else :)

    I spoke to the IBD nurses who got me an appointment with the consultant, however the appointment isn't till 4th June. If i'm no better this week going to reach out to my GP. I just don't feel right at all at the moment.

    I agree with @Beaver79, @rubin16. It's worth speaking to the GP in the mean time just to rule out it being anything else.
