It's the start of a new week and remember anyone out there that is suffering, remember there is someone out there to talk don't keep it inside of yourself.

Im rapidly going backwards back into a silent world and into the shadows. Took me 52 years to discover the real me and to deal with my past but all this is knocking me back. I work 8 to 10 hours alone every day in the wilds and Im beginning to slip back into my own company. I discovered dance in many forms and I could own the dance floor, I discovered a flair for designing clothes and an ability to be around people and enjoy it. But with all dance shut down and all I do is work in silence its slipping away. Gf pulled me upto dance the other night and I just couldn t, couldn t sit down fast enough. I know it doesn t sound much but with the silence comes my thinking and with that my issues are starting to kick me n bite me in the ass again. I ve beaten it once but then there was dance..this is gonna be a toughie to beat again.To all those struggling my very best of wishes and big hugs. We can do this..we have to.

Oh no! This made me sad to read as your posts over the last few months have made me smile. Perhaps it’s because we’re coming into the lower season which I feel is always a time to start reflecting? Don’t lose your need to dance you, just discover a new form that represents your current mood. Sending hugs

Hey you thank you. I ve beaten it alone before, guess I ll beat it again and if I dont then so be it, that is the road I must travel. We all have our roads to travel, it just seems mine is built for one with an occassional passenger...I just need to adapt...AGAIN.X

Yes these are challenging times for all of us. Even those who have not really suffered with mental health problems in the past are finding new challenges that are testing them. Being there for each other and being mindful in our interactions and, in here, particularly in the way we post, is important. Many people are looking to communities like these for support and a social outlet where so many other social norms have been restricted due to the pandemic.

I’m not on here much at all as my priorities are different now, but this place has helped me through some of my personal struggles in the past, because of the listening ear and wise words of a few friends and the ability to escape and post my rambling thoughts into the forum ether. For that I am eternally grateful.

Wishing all of you well and much love

Best of luck. It's not easy admitting you need help.
