Something’s not right

Riding a wave

Re: Riding a wave

Hi @Phoenix_Rising, yes I am meandering around. I've not yet meandered through this thread but will do so now after reading that today has been horrendous for you. Watching over the ocean tonight and sitting with you if it's still rough out there for you. Looking forward to a brand new day in less than 3 hours where I hope there may be calmer seas for you...good night 🙂

Re: Riding a wave

I super like you @Former-Member. 😊

Re: Riding a wave

I really truly do feel and hear it @Phoenix_Rising. I'm feeling it now and hearing you now.

I have also had those horrible times when the email sound has made me feel sick. I had to change the tone and still get jolts when I hear that one - so yuck and I am sorry you're at that point 😞

I think you'd be an amazing fish watcher Phoenix_Rising. They'd ask for profiteroles and poffertjes, which after seeing your pancake photo, I think you'd all get along just fine 😛

Snuggle safely. We've got this.

Re: Riding a wave

@Phoenix_Rising As I'm running on empty I just want to share some little things that have helped me on my journey, music being a biggie. This song might not be the right time. If it's not please let me know and I'll have it removed.

Re: Riding a wave

@Maggie Thank you for sharing such a powerful song. I can imagine that you might have been feeling a little anxious about whether it was ok to post this or not, so super big thank you for being so brave. Smiley Happy

I also find music super helpful. If I was to have an anthem for my life, a song that summarises my experience of the world to-date, this would be it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0Pc50W2FnU

 

 

 

A popular song from the musical "Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." Written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and sung by Donny Osmond. I do not own this song, everything belongs to it's rightful owner. No copyright infringement intended. Apologies for bad spelling.

Re: Riding a wave

Thank you for sharing these songs @Maggie @Phoenix_Rising .... both are more beautiful than they seem at first .....

“Children of Israel are never alone” will stay with me here @Phoenix_Rising ..... where I don’t know anybody and have to start again. It’s a green leaf in drought ......

Re: Riding a wave

@Phoenix_Rising Thank you so much for responding. Yes I have been very anxious as it is a confronting yet comforting song. A contradiction there I know, but in my chaotic mind, it makes sense.

I also like the song you shared. Thank you for that. I hope the ocean is a little calmer today, if not, many are joining you in the waves.

@Faith-and-Hope Thank you also. Hope you are plowing through the struggles life is throwing your way. A green leaf in drought is a beautiful sight.

It is @Maggie ..... 🌿💕

My brain is all mushed again. Smiley Sad

I had a completely bewildering conversation this morning that pushed me so far out of my window of tolerance I'm back to not even knowing where the window is. I so very very badly wish that all MH professionals had the same solid understanding of mushed brains that TTT has. This conversation super reminded me of why I am a recluse - the vast majority of human interaction just ends up breaking my brain more. Smiley Sad

@CheerBear I am both super glad and super sad that you get how brain mushing it is trying to work with services that claim to be trauma informed while they at the same time mush your brain. I'm glad because it so superly duperly helps that you so totally get it, but I'm sad because I wish you hadn't experienced what you have experienced in order to be able to get it. This morning's conversation was very much like my conversations with (A), where she would keep saying the same things while I was screaming and SHing. I am so very VERY grateful for TTT's completely opposite way of doing things. 

Sigh...once again I don't think I'm going to make it to FF tonight. I feel so sad. FF used to be one of the biggest highlights of my week. Smiley Sad
