Something’s not right

Re: My Mosaic

Sorry @Jynx just not sure what to do

Re: My Mosaic

That is fair @Bow. Sometimes it's good to focus real small. First, check in with yourself - are there any basic needs that you could attend to? A glass of water, a snack, a cup of tea, a shower, some deep breaths, or some rest? Then maybe have a think... if your mind is racing, you could distract yourself by going for a walk or doing something physical. If your mood is quite low, you could try something like watching a nice kids movie (watched 'Strange World' on Disney plus recently and it's really good! Would recommend 😊) or even get messy with some painting - doesn't have to be anything, just splash some colours around. If you're feeling quite overwhelmed, you could call someone or journal your thoughts, try to get it off your chest. 

 

All just thoughts of things to try. Here with you every step of the way as needed 💜

Re: My Mosaic

Aww lovely @Bow I hope you're really taking the time to get into the painting process! Makes me feel like I should grab some of my art stuff out once I finish this arvo, so thanks for the inspiration 💜

Re: My Mosaic

Oh I’ve gone too far this time just needed to feel something just needed to make everything slow down I’m such a terrible person such a failure can’t even go a day without doing this 

Re: My Mosaic

Sitting with you @Bow .You are not a 'failure' . You are a 'warrior'

Re: My Mosaic

You're not a terrible person or a failure, you're battling some massive stuff that anyone would struggle with @Bow  😞

 

Are you OK, do you need to go to the GP to get fixed up? 

 

Sending lots of 💜
