@Cuddlebear it's definitely hard when things have been so tough for a long time. I definitely care and understand and it's not something that you can just snap out of, how i wish it was that easy. I'm glad I can help others even if it's just by being here to listen and show kindness and compassion cos that's something we all deserve when we are struggling. Thankyou for the kind words ♥️.
I'm glad you were able to get to the vet and get medicine for your dog, hopefully his ear is all better soon. Enjoying the sunshine together sounds so nice 😊.
I didn't have anything planned but an unexpected phone call has just thrown my day out so now I'm not sure what the rest of the day will hold. I hope your day is relaxing, having no motivation is hard but try to just rest and enjoy spending time with your dog ♥️

@Dreamy Was the phone call ok? It sounds like it may have caused some stress to you. I know it’s terribly hard answering a call so I’m proud of you for doing that.
I too wish snapping out of it was the solution. People harp on about mental health but in truth they have no idea or real empathy when it comes to the crunch. People with lived experience really understand and don’t expect anyone to just magically be better. That’s something these forums can do really well. You’re most welcome for the compliment. Everything I said was true.
Yes it was good getting some sun. It’s chilly but today the sun is out and it has stopped raining. It was so cold last night.
I hope the afternoon goes really well for you. How is Caspar today? Enjoying the squeeky toys?

@Cuddlebear i hate talking on the phone in general and it was a stressful call. I'm supposed to be making a phone call but i just don't have that in me today.
Yeah the forums are great cos everyone here has that lived experience so we all get it. We all know how hard it is and that there is good days and bad days. Thankyou ♥️
Its been chilly lately but it's nice when the sun does come out.
Casper is doing well and had fun zooming around the house earlier now he is cuddled up next to me sleeping.

@Dreamy How’s the afternoon gone for you? It’s totally ok not to make any calls today. It can wait until you are ready.
We are heading into evening. The bigger part of the day is behind us and we’re here and doing an awesome job of surviving. Sending you lots of hugs.

@Cuddlebear the afternoon got a bit intense. I tried to make the phone call but there was no answer so it's maybe a tomorrow job.
How was the rest of your day sweet?

Dearest @Cuddlebear
I have realised ........taken me million of years to realise this is that there really is a season for everything.
It's ok if you need to self-care by scrolling. It's fine.
