Managing thoughts of suicide & self-harm

Lonely and needing distraction

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

Oh! You were having an ice coffee with air con so I thought it was hot as.

 

As for fishing, I'm the same as you. I don't touch it and I don't eat it if I catch anything @Gremlin24 

 

Catchya later

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Gremlin24 I know how you feel about tackling the shops, somedays they are like a war zone.  Even worse when it is Christmas or there are sales on!  Some women certainly take no prisoners in the search for bargains.

 

I had a hectic day but now I am home and relaxing after work.  Hopefully you are feeling better now.

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Arbie_wun the shops are bad enough at the best of times. It drives me crazy how people behave at Christmas time, it's like everyone forgets their manners. 

 

Glad you are relaxing now after work. 

I'm somewhat ok for the moment so I'm taking that as a win cos I'm not sure how long it will last. 

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Gremlin24 have you looked into relaxing herbal teas.  

 

Peppermint, Camomile and Lavender are ones that have been suggested to me before... 

 

I know it sounds a little funny but it does work once your body gets used to the differences.

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Arbie_wun i can't drink any of those fancy tea's as they seem to react with me. I'll just stick to my iced coffees 😂

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

Yum! Iced coffees ANY day for me @Gremlin24 !

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@tyme for me too, they are so yummy😋 

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

Do you make your own? I don't mind the 7/11 ones @Gremlin24 

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Gremlin24 ... for me it is usually an INTENSE ESPRESSO or a TRIPLE for me.

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@tyme i either make my own or use a sachet one that i found that's really yummy.
