    @Amberpearl sorry to see you write that… I think you're justified feeling like that to be honest… it's a little annoying when people try to change the way we think when there's a good reason for it… but we all have to make the best and you're an interesting person, I love reading your posts. Do you still have lots of cats?

    @Grumpy1314 I love how you were feeling so horrible about yourself then trying to reassure someone else… I don't think lots of people who don't have loads of problems would be like that 😊

    My support worker once told me, when I say something negative about myself, ask myself if I'd say that to a friend? Or the other way… if it was a friend struggling in the position I'm in, how would I advise/reassure them?? You probably wouldn't be so harsh to tell them to pack it all up like you would to yourself 👍

    @Grumpy1314 it's kinda interesting (not in a perverted way) to hear that, like I used to think I was hard done by having many of my issues all my life but in a way it must be harder to acquire them. My mum used to say (as a throwaway comment, no experience) it's easier for people born blind than those who lose their sight, maybe it's similar with most disabilities?

    In a way I don't think we ever should fully make peace but I guess it's a case of where to invest your time/energy, find a way of living with stuff, I guess putting energy into adapting rather than mourning what we lost? I know that's MUCH easier said than done, I don't manage it lots of the time 😆

    Good morning everyone was hoping it may be cooler today 😎 but woke up to the weather report saying its going to be very hot again today. I went to bed about 4am I woke a couple of times during my 5 hours sleep time, my cpap mask needs replacing so im not getting any quality sleep. I need to call the hospital to get a new mask. My poor dog and cat are suffering even with the fans on. Im going to give my dog a wash down today, hopefully he may feel a bit more comfortable. My cat hates water so im not going to be able to cool her off.

    I hope that everyone who is

    struggling will get a better weekend. It's hard for so many of us in this current climate. Sending you all virtual 🫂 . Be kind to yourselves. You deserve to be feeling better.

    Its another beautiful sunny day here and I feel good but exhausted. I am going to a country pub this evening on the moors.

    I live by the sea but it's so nice to venture into the country side and enjoy the beautiful villages that tend to be much quieter this time of the year.

    @Catherine21 great words, all I can add is that I agree 👍

    @Grumpy1314 is "BPD" short for bipolar disorder or borderline personality disorder - now called emotionally unstable personality disorder (EUPD)? I was diagnosed with EUPD shortly after the name changed because the change also affected the criteria. I was used as a case-in-point because apparently borderline personality disorder was diagnosed partly through negative behaviours toward others and EUPD reflects that somebody can be, say, angry or abusive, towards themselves but not toward others, which is me. Like I think things about myself that I'd never think of someone else…stuff that if you did to say to another person you'd get arrested. 😆 That kinda sounds a bit like you like self-critical and stuff?

    It's like there's 2 extremes, one where you think the world and everyone is at fault and you go super defensive even aggressive…then the other is more insular where you think you're to blame, even if someone is at fault like is rude to you, you just conclude it's because you deserved it

    Not trying to diagnose anything just find it interesting to share with someone who potentially has similar stuff

    Its so beautiful.

    I can't walk very far but I enjoy the scenery on the car journey and sitting in a nice beer garden.

    It's always nice getting out there, even if you cant do too much @luvpink. I do love just sitting and watching the outside world do its thing. 😊

    I'm hoping I'll be able to join sis and the dogs for a trip to the park tomorrow, I've been out of action since May. 😅

    @Albus_Scope

    I am blessed living by the sea and close to the beautiful countryside.

    People pay a lot of money to holiday here and the amount of tourists does impact our lives negatively during the holiday season but its lovely once things get less busy.

    Good afternoon all

    I read online a new murderous type of wasp is here with nests the size of space hoppers

    I am. Absolutely terrified of them and this fills, me with great more anxiety

    I think you may have been reading some clickbait articles there @Amberpearl Warmer weather will mean it's better living conditions for all insects. They're exactly the same wasps as last year, they've just been able to make bigger nests this year, that's all.

    Just don't go around trying to slap them and all will be fine. 😁
