They didn’t give us the option :(. but I did get to stroke the chest of a beautiful eagle owl called Lightning with ear tufts. He was 14lb and huge. It was a place that rescues them from other centres or if they’re injured in the wild they’ll rehabilitate them and send them back out and they have the big owls and…

yep you’re totally right. It can be a bit of a ‘I’m here now, might as well carry on’ and you just never get anywhere and then you just feel worse about yourself. Thank u for the advice. and I’ll make an effort to!

I should just try I suppose. I’m completely socially awkward which does not help matters though!

I see myself as very thoughtful and giving with everyone else. just not me, because I don’t feel like I deserve it, y’know? but thank u. u sound lovely :)

I will check it out. Thanks for the recommendation. :)

I did do cbt once in regards to my depression and anxiety but i suppose i didn’t think to apply it to negative self talk about myself. because of course, why would I matter? /s good idea. Thank u :)

Thank u mujer you’re all lovely :)

That’s a really good idea. and you’re super sweet. I wish you jezzie lot all lived in one place so we could hang! Thank u xxx 😊

I’ll have a look! Our village is tiny though which is a pain in the ass! :)

Reading that back I realise I sound like I’m four years old - I promise you I’m a fully functioning adult. I just like animal parks. COS THE ANIMALS ARE SO CUTE

GOD me too. I have like, one really close friend but she lives 90 minutes away now, family, and 2 friends from school. that’s it. no one to come round and sit on my couch and cry with me and laugh with me. zilch. nada. everyone in my street is lovely, but mid 50s. I’m 23. I’m so so lonely. I have my husband but I’m…

dude, same, except I’m in England and moved 90 minutes drive away. There is no easy public transport that takes less than 3 hours. everyone here is at least 30 years older than me. how are you meeting people/making friends? :)

I’m so sorry. hes a beautiful boy.

a really good book, trashy tv but also good tv like hannibal, eating with my feet up on the sofa or in bed, takeout food or if I have the energy to go to a supermarket, breads and cheeses followed by chocolate. and of course the biggest sleep you can possibly fit in.

sounds like you’ve has a bit of a bummer of a week, I’m sorry!

I’m rarely here for the start of this (I’m in England) and have been away all weekend on the coast with no Internet access. and I missed u guys! I dont post here much but there’s a lot of snarky comraderie I get here and I missed it this week. luv u.

Is this just not the biggest surprise you ever did hear??? kinda like the immaculate conception but with more chlamydia

ahh mark I’m sorry you got hate mail for taking Allen to see that gross movie! booo! hiss!

brilliant, thank you. I’ll definitely check it out. :)

ahh thank you for your kind words. yeah she’s under an excellent gp and has a therapist (on her second one, didn’t click with the first) but the therapist thinks she only needs an appt every fortnight. she’s also on a good med regimen.
