@EternalFlower you're right, I just needed a little alone time with my plants. They are doing well! How are you today?

[StanD]

Hello @LeChuck I do know this feeling very well. I'm proud that you wrote about it here. Fluctuations in mood is very difficult for. I can be very high, very low, need my space, talk to strangers, cry & laugh, anxiety & calm, devoid, all in a day. (hour)

I don't like sharing  uncomfortable emotions. I retreat. 

I don't like telling other people I'm p*ssed off. I feel guilty to unleash. 

The way you did it, I have lots of respect.

People in my space - I don't have the words to describe how painful this is for me. I exist survive in a state of dissasociation. I will never turn u away, or any other of us who feel this. To me, you are ALWAYS welcome.

Thanks for being brave LeChuck. Hope I didn't make you sadder. 

I agree with you. All the creative, intelligent authors here.

Hello @StanD 

I hope that you arrived safely when following my directions.

I will let you know that I have no sense of direction at all.

I appreciate your writing to me and thanking me.

I feel lonely too.

I really do love your way with words @tonys 

Are you a writer? or a song writer? Or a poet?

Or are you all of the above?

I sense that you might be a narrator or story teller once among friends.

I can picture a campfire at your farm and I have read somewhere of a table where you share your food and drink.

Reminds me of communities over many generations.

I believe that you bring that warmth that you share within your own external community here to all of the travellers to whom you share your words with.

You help bring us together at one big table or sitting around a campfire.

We read your words and I imagine us sitting together around the campfire listening to one of your many fascinating stories.

Perhaps you might play a musical instrument and sing us a song.

I sense that there has been some disharmony as we struggle with our own internal battles and adjust to this gigantic website.

The concept of motion has brought us together but we are still learning about each other.

You are our guiding light who gently leads us back to a safe, cosy, inviting campfire where we know that we will always be welcome and safe.

Hmmm campfire..

We might need an outdoor shower or buckets of water? to cool our overheated souls and minds in the current weather.

No pressure Tonys

Hello @LeChuck 

Yes I am familiar with irritability.

I know only too well that feeling of wanting my own space and trying hard at the same time not to upset others.

It can be hard to get this across calmly as well, I find. The agitation can be misinterpreted by others as anger.

I usually avoid people if I can. I also let those people who are important to me and I cannot avoid that I am not feeling too well. I then usually take myself off somewhere that I can be on my own and feel safe.

I try to work out why it might be happening and often for me it is when I become overwhelmed or in overload with too much stress happening around me that is out of my control.

I think our mind and body are warning us to take time out and look after ourselves.

For me I need to remember to focus on my breathing.

I want to say Le Chuck that the fact that you are aware of it is great as you can then do something to keep yourself safe.  Get your own space.

Hope that it is helpful to feel that you are not alone with this feeling even though there are always different reasons for everyone.

Please don't feel that I am interfering @LeChuck 

I just want to let you know there is nothing ugly about your emotions.

They might be frightening.

The truth is your truth and nobody has the right to judge you ever.

You are brave in talking about them and that says a lot about your strength.

I hope that you feel safe here. Share when you want to and feel safe to do so.

It is nice to have you here.

@LeChuck 

When you are in the greenhouse next time and it is hot again which it will be won't it.

That is what they are meant to be like to help those baby plants.

Is there a sprinkler system that you can stand under?

Or a watering can or bucket to pour water over yourself?

If you don't like water on your head on the back of your head and with a damp cloth cool your face down.

You can wear a damp cloth around your neck too.

Sip water as well as you would dehydrate easily in there.

You could just also dampen your hair with wet hands if you don't like water on your head.

I hope that might help.

I have my little house of plants.

No glass just snakeproof netting and shadecloth.

I love moving things around in there when the weather changes.

It is a special place for me.

I love the garden too and creating little nooks.

If you want to. would you like to talk about what you are growing in the greenhouse only if you feel safe enough to do so and also it will not identify you as well.

Hello @EternalFlower 

I am hoping that you were able to get that special appointment today with your doctor.

I also hope that he spent more time with you; listening to you and your needs.

Hopefully he has explained the new medication and what is happening there as well if you managed to see him.

How are you feeling now?

Or are you wanting to just rest and forget about it all at the moment?

I understand either way.

Take care of yourself.

You have your friends here all wanting you to have the help that you need.

I hope that these posts help you feel a little more connected to people and take away some of the discomfort that you feel where you are at the moment.

You have a lot to deal with.

Write when you feel up to it

Bye for now

@Former-Member it does help. Thanks. I'm growing kale and spinach and lettuce and some tropicals 🙂
