Something’s not right

Time away from forums

Re: Time away from forums

Glad you found something to help, even just a little @creative_writer 

It certainly is cold here. Got my oodie on top of my clothes.

I find you can always layer in winter too and keep adding until you are warm!

Re: Time away from forums

@Snowie I think in adulthood you stop caring about repeating outfits. I’ll wear the same coat everyday if it keeps me warm and cozy.

Leggings are not ideal winter wear, unless layered underneath pants

Re: Time away from forums

Oh you certainly do stop caring @creative_writer 

Now I just wear things I feel comfortable in, regardless of my lack of fashion sense!!

 

Leggings certainly do not cut it in this weather.

Re: Time away from forums

@Snowie yeah we do stop caring. But if you have a nice coat and boots, you might as well stay warm. Mornings can feel cold when you take public transport.

I don’t know how people wear leggings. I was literally under the covers because I was cold. But my circulation is lousy so I thought I would benefit from some compression. I feel like they are still good for layering. Formal trousers are often thin

Re: Time away from forums

I find some leggings ok @creative_writer depending on their thickness. The super thin ones are pretty useless.

Are you going to work tomorrow?

Re: Time away from forums

@Snowie my compression ones are super thin like they usually are. They only work when layering in winter. I have tried fleecey leggings before, they were sort of suffocating. I think it comes down to material. I do better with bamboo-cotton than synthetic.

Yeah I’m planning on going tomorrow. Do you have plans for tomorrow?

Re: Time away from forums

I hope it goes well for you tomorrow @creative_writer and you get through the day.

Not much on tomorrow. Have a few things I need doing but will see how I feel first.

 

Re: Time away from forums

@Snowie placement is a good distraction. I just hope intrusive thoughts stay where they belong.

I hope you are able to get what you need done. Always good to go slowly if you need it 💖

Re: Time away from forums

Hi @creative_writer 

I hope your day went well hon.

Looking forward to hearing about it.

Re: Time away from forums

@Snowie it’s been exhausting but okay. Intrusive thoughts did make their way, but it wasn’t too bad. Better being distracted than at home. I suppose Intrusive thoughts are just part of the cptsd package.

How was your day?
