Good!

Thank you for caring love....I know it sounds trivial.
Normally, it would be, but we have so much to do. :hug:

Hope you have had enough sleep: how are your Greek studies going? :) ♥

Dee74 02-22-2017 01:47 AM

I'm glad Suze :)

Sometimes things get so frustrating, and those feelings remind me of how that anxiety and frustration was nearly a daily occurrence when drinking and in early sobriety. Sometimes it felt like I could go from zero to 100 on the anxiety scale within a nanosecond.

You have the tools to cope with this, Suze. I have no doubt. Don't forget to breathe....every step (even sometimes a side-step) is still moving you closer to where you want to be.xx

venuscat 02-22-2017 02:26 AM

Thank you. ♥

How are you feeling now love? :hug:

Gilmer 02-22-2017 03:19 AM

All is fine with me, Suze. Thanks for asking!

Hope you get a good night's sleep tonight.

Yeah, all better now. Allergic reaction to Quorn. Violently ill. Was not pretty. Had no energy yesterday in the aftermath, but much better now, thank you.

Leshar, you OK?

SnoozyQ 02-22-2017 06:48 AM

SnoozyQ 02-22-2017 06:50 AM

I had a bloody drink ! What was I thinking. I'm going to bed I threw the rest out . I hate myself Grrrrr
I'm so sorry. I just wish I could fix myself xx

venuscat 02-22-2017 11:04 AM

Wendy....very glad you threw it out.
That is not the life you want.

We are here for you love. :hug: ♥

venuscat 02-22-2017 11:06 AM

Not a good day for me....much sicker, and they didn't fix my internet.
I didn't sleep much either.
Zero strength or will right now.

Glad you are feeling better Crois ~ that sounds awful love. :hug:

And yes, we miss you Leshar.....huge hugs for you. :hug:

Gilmer 02-22-2017 11:54 AM

I'm sorry, Suze!

Just pick yourself right back up, Snooz! Good job dumping the rest out.

What was your trigger?

Gilmer 02-22-2017 12:45 PM

You must be sick, Suze--I notice you're up extra-early today.

Dee74 02-22-2017 02:55 PM

I'm sorry you drank Wendy.

Do you think it's connected to the party, to your frustration with Shaun... or maybe both?

I'm gonna put another plug in for AA or something meeting based of that sort.

You need to do something different Snooz. Some real life support might be what you need.

Dee is right Wendy love (of course).
There are so many options for face-to-face support.
Happy to help you compile a list again if you like. :hug: ♥

Croissant 02-22-2017 03:23 PM

Sorry you drank, Wendy. Yes, there's obviously some frustration there with Shaun zoning out with gaming, now you've wanted to numb out yourself.

Time to reach out for some professional help?

LB, how are you going?

Leshar?

Suze, Internet probs feels like loss of oxygen sometimes. I've not been able to afford too much of it lately and choose to prioritise when I'm on and walk to free wifi to get it sometimes, or use my phone. It's been the best thing ever to realise how much time is wasted being online.

Is there other chores you can do while its disconnected? Packing etc. ? so its not left to the last minute?

venuscat 02-22-2017 03:26 PM

Crois.....I need my internet: I am using my phone as a hot spot.
I am a freelance writer now, and well, my job depends on internet access.
I also need it to talk to Nick, and we use Skype....and nothing will be left to the last minute. I am completely organised.
I actually don't waste anytime online.... :hug: ♥

I do appreciate your suggestions though love....I would dearly love to go for a walk, but I can barely stand up. :(

PhoenixJ 02-22-2017 03:28 PM

Take care VC

venuscat 02-22-2017 03:30 PM

Thank you dearest PJ. :hug: ♥

How are your new digs? :hug:

Croissant 02-22-2017 05:10 PM

Venus, I'm not going to come into an emotional situation here again.

Yep, I'm a professional writer AND run my own business. I was (as usual) trying to suggest an upside rather than perpetuate a negative situation.

Nothing more. And yep, I think we all can waste time on the Internet at times, for sure. I'm allowed to have that opinion. :)
