why can't I cope longer?

((( HUG ))) @Adge ..... ❤️

I've had chronic pain for 25 years, since the 1990's @Former-Member Initially only due to my Scoliosis (spine).

Yes it definitely impacts mood, yes it's hard to be hopeful when in pain.

Apparently SI is common in people with a severe/ complex Trauma background - I was told by Psychologist that I am Rare (unusual) that I don't do that, never have.

Goodnight EOR.

Nice one @Faith-and-Hope

That is a Lovely Picture.

I especially like animal pictures, & animals showing affection.

I know both you and @Former-Member do @Adge .  I am sorry I haven't been more "here" for both of you.  I have been treading water for a while now and just sticking to quiet corners of the forums mostly.  It's not that I don't care - just not much stuffing at the moment.

@Former-Member  🤗💕🌸💞

Just wanted to reassure you that you are so very worthy of support, and while ever I'm here, you will always have my support.  Like many others I suspect, there are times I'm not able to offer as much support as I would like to.  So I can go quiet sometimes and stick more closely to my own thread where I feel safest.  But I always follow your thread, I'm subscribed to this thread, and get email notifications for it. So please know that I am always watching and listening to make sure you are as okay as possible.  And if I have anything I feel may be of benefit to you, or I'm particularly concerned about you, I will always chip in.

I hope you sleep well my very worthy and loveable friend. You are so worth it!

And you too @Adge ... I'm sorry you sometimes feel neglected.

Emelia 💕🤗🌺🙏

Big hugs for you my friend ....

I never think badly of you @Faith-and-Hope nor of you @Emelia8 

Indeed I don't naturally think badly of anyone - Unless they're very rude or nasty to me, first.

Otherwise people deserve "Kind thoughts" & "Benefit of the doubt" (no judgement).

No Stuffing left, & Treading Water - Yes I'm familiar with that feeling.

Even though I cannot Swim, so I probably cannot actually Tread Water.....

I'm not surprised - You've had a tremendous amount on your plate, for quite some time.

You too Emelia.
