I really appreciate for a lot of us, right now it's really challenging. It's lovely to see everybody pulling together and supporting one another. This really is an amazing community.

As somebody who struggles sometimes with their emotional health, I wanted to re-share the link to this post. Emotional Wellness Week! ๐Ÿ’œ - Page 2 โ€” Scope | Online Community. In hope this might help people as much as it did me when researching.

It's a very overwhelming time and sometimes just small steps can help make a really big difference.

Please take care of yourselves and each other. ๐Ÿ’›

    Thanks Holly for this, most appreciated during these trying times for us all.

    The key I think is not to get too emotionally attached to all this turmoil and confusion which is reigning just now, and to be adaptible and flexible to ever changing new realities.

    Trust in a Higher Power that is looking after us all.๐Ÿ˜‡

    Life is a struggle when faced with illness and no money

    All this with the government is heartbreaking for people like us

    Lovely message Holly, take care of yourself too. I'm sure I speak for just about all of us, Scope is a brilliant support, no matter how awful the news, you Scopies are always there. Can't say how much that means to me/us. Can't make heart pics but lots of <coos>

    Just quick Santosha, couldn't answer you in the thread the other day, Albus cut the thread off... But just to let you know, if I'm not on the forum a while, it's because the tremors have got bad and need to rest. It's not because I'm bored with Scope. Take care + thanks for your kind words. And don't forget let us know your news x

    @Santosha12

    Thank you for your uplifting post, just what I needed at this low point politically and as I new member. Great to come across such a supportive community. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    @Santosha12

    You're very welcome. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    Thank you for your very kind reply. I really do feel that I've come to the right place by joining this community! ๐Ÿค—

    It sounds like you're doing the right thing considering how you feel mentally about your life by putting on such a positive post for us all and giving me such a lovely reply. ๐Ÿ˜€

    Do take care of yourself and try to stay as positive as you can. I try my best to see the good side of life too and I know how hard it is to do. As you obviously seem to know it really is well worth it, whatever your feelings are. ๐Ÿ‘

    I hope to hear from you soon, keep up the good work! ๐Ÿ‘Œ

    @Santosha12

    Thank you for your post, it's helped me to look forward to today more than I did. ๐Ÿ‘

    You are obviously an animal lover like my partner and myself. We have a cat and a dog. ๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿ•I'm the cat person, he's the dog person!

    The weather here is just dull today but it's good to see our big shrubs in the back garden blooming (one yellow and one pink) and hear birds singing. I think that you must have the really lovely weather that we have had recently. ๐ŸŒž

    I hope those roofers next door soon finish the job altogether. I don't envy you! I do hope that you and your dogs can get into the garden today. ๐Ÿคž

    I wish you all the best whatever you do today and it's good to hear from you again. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    @Santosha12

    Don't worry, I like being talked to! ๐Ÿ˜€

    I'm glad your dogs were good and despite the noise you got a new roof ๐Ÿก

    After a long fight with the Housing Association, we finally seem to be underway for having replacement UVPC windows for old, worn out wooden ones and for our far too expensive to run night storage heaters we are having a much more energy efficient, up to date replacement. About time too, the house is 25 to 30 years old! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

    Thank you for telling me about the thread for National Puppy Day. I'll have a look at that. Our Jack Russell is 2 although I've got photos of when he was a puppy. You said pets, not just dogs so I could look out a photo of our 11 year old cat.

    Take care and I hope to hear from you soon ๐Ÿ˜Š Do enjoy your day.

    @Santosha12,

    If going on a tangent helps clear your mind of racing thoughts, why consider you โ€œmust do betterโ€? If it works for you, thatโ€™s what matters. When I go on a tangent, I feel a big sigh of relief and a huge weight lifted off my chest !๐Ÿ˜Š

    @Santosha12

    I hope that you're feeling as well as you can. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    The weather is brighter than it's been here. I'm upstairs in bed (I've a bed downstairs too.) In the morning I always have to spend time getting myself to a point with the chronic fatigue where I have enough energy to get ready so I can go down to my partner and our cat and dog.๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿ•A good time to write some posts though! ๐Ÿ‘

    I'm going to watch the Spring Statement this afternoon. ๐Ÿ˜’ Apparently we are going to get impact statements on what the cuts are going to be, including for the disabled. I wonder how honest they will be about that. ๐Ÿค” Not very, I would have thought.

    However, on a more optimistic note, how are you and what are you likely to do with your day? ๐Ÿ˜Š

    It will be nice to hear from you. ๐Ÿ‘
