Lonely and needing distraction

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

Hey @Gremlin24 @Arbie_wun ,

 

I just want to say that I'm following this conversation closely, and it's incredible to see the amazing peer support you are providing each other. 

 

I am not denying that things aren't hard at the moment, but I can see how connection can really keep us going.

 

I can see you care about each other. We all care about each other.

 

Hugs to you both.

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Arbie_wun thankyou, it really means alot to hear those words. I'm trying hard to find a way through the darkness but at the moment it's consuming me and it's taking everything out of me. 

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@tyme ... GROUP HUG....😀

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Gremlin24 ... I can do my best to hold the torch to light your way my friend... 

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@tyme it's been really nice to have the support of so many people here and I'm very grateful to have it.

 

Right now this connection here is the only thing that's keeping me going but when things get really bad it's hard to feel like i don't deserve to have it. 

 

Thankyou ❤️

@Arbie_wun thankyou ❤️

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Gremlin24 ... no need to thank me my friend, I am only doing what I know you would be doing if I was in the same place you are now.  Giving you the care and support you deserve and need.

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Arbie_wun it really means alot. I just feel completely defeated at the moment. I just know this isn't even the worst of it yet, this really is only just the beginning. If i can't make it through now while things are like this how am I supposed to survive when it gets harder. 

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Gremlin24 ... you are strong enough... you are worthy enough and you will get through this.  There's a lot of people here to help and support you in your journey and we will continue to be here for you, my friend.

Re: Lonely and needing distraction

@Arbie_wun thankyou. I just hope i don't let everyone down if i can't.
