"I feel like I could sleep for 48hrs straight. I'm annoyed at myself for yet again getting too much into my head and not allowing myself some fun. I have things to be happy about and things to not be happy about, but I guess that's normal right? I think I just need to stop being so me. " Or just accept who you are and embrace it 🥰 | |||

Yes, it's normal to have some good and some less good aspects of life. Allow yourself the chance to have fun, no one's head is a great place to be stuck in all the time. Failing that, treat yo'self to some hash browns. x | |||

"That’s actually quite a complicated question right now 🤣 I’m happy as I can be right now. A lots happened over the last year and I feel really content to be over the worst of it. But menopause is kicking my arse at the moment and it’s a bit of a battle mentally and physically. But like everything, this too will pass. So just hoping it settles soon and I can crack on with life. "Really glad to read you're over the worst of it and content but.... menopause sounds truly dire! Fingers crossed it settles for you soon Saff - it sounds like you've been through a lot and this is an extra unneeded thing. | |||

"I go through a period once a year where I can lose days sitting on the sofa staring aimlessly. I make no effort to contact people and sit alone not even thinking. Then just like that it's gone and I'm back to being me again. I think my mind needs it as a well earned rest from the world outside. " Yes! It's a sort of low energy day truly dialled up. You're recharging and in shutdown mode. Makes perfect sense to me. | |||

Hopefully the other end isn't too far away for you, Geordie. And going to the gym is great when things are difficult, you have the added bonus of feeling and looking better after getting lost in the temporary stress relief of it. x | |||

You've got to find your own things that bring meaning to your life. Real joy. If you go through the motions and don't really live it's easy enough to feel disheartened. Aimless. Hopefully you'll find your joy before too long. | |||

Life can be incredibly shitty but you have the privilege of being able to say goodbye. Having those times that make saying goodbye even harder. It's not something I'd wish on anyone though, least of all you. That wheel of life will keep turning but I hope you can pause it and take the time for you. ❤️ | |||

Travelling is the first necessity and some beautiful reset time. Then it’s where I want to go from there….so much to think about but I’m excited to see where life will take me 🥰" Yay Preston! This is lovely to read and full of positivity. Definitely sounds like travel is important to you and that's good - it can really help you recharge. Make you appreciate life that more. Hopefully life takes you exactly where you should be, in the best of ways. Enjoy the time with your family today 🩷 | |||

"I've had an extraordinary 12 months. I was given some confronting news from my doc which felt like a slap across the face, I was involved in 2 road crashes totalling my car both times, I split up with my partner after a decades long relationship, I bought a house and am struggling financially more now than in any point in my life. But I am as happy as ever and incredibly grateful that I'm alive and kicking and swinging. I'm loving life,😁 My goodness that's a hell of a lot to go through, glad you're OK though xx" Thanks miss K, I'm doing better than ok though, I'm have a blast,😁 | |||

"Stressing out over my cv, personal statement is a bitch.
It can be tricky sorting it out - made any progress on it? Sometimes it can help getting a friend to read it over. "No I kinda of had a small breakdown, so I'm going for a walk. I've always struggled with talking about myself when there's something like a job involved | |||

"I'm always in a good mood. ALWAYS. Sometimes i'm low on energy e.g. dying of covid, flu, cold - have a pain somewhere but i'm generally high on spirit and energy. ( obvs i'm older n slower now but basically the same attitudes from my childhood ) I read an article the other day that I found interesting - it cited research that says your disposition is to a huge extent genetic. " I like that attitude; of course low energy is a real thing but maintaining a good mood? It's lovely and rare. Genetic disposition? Hmmm. That explains a lot for me. | |||
