Hi gorgeous Grandy (waves to all),
I agree with DB and Lee about perhaps just focusing on taking care of yourself for now...
Everything else can wait...now is Grandy’s time...your time...
Like everyone else, I’m by your side peacefully and keeping a caring eye on you. But I’m not saying much for now to let you rest and have some calm...
Much love and comforting hugs plus some treats for your fur babies...
Peppy xoxo
P.S. Wonderful Mandy, I know how much you’ve been struggling lately. Perhaps just take your time with posts and visiting people’s threads. Just whatever you can manage/feel comfortable with is more than enough. Sending love and hugs...

It's a shame we're not allowed to put pressure on eachother here 😆 because not having a dose of you in my daily routine of life 😢.

My very dear friend Grandy,
Please ... there is no pressure whatsoever to reply. Just take as much time out as you need to get yourself stable. I am just here to let you know I am always thinking of you, and willing you to get back in control of your life. You said you know how to do that and what you need to do. So please use this time to ensure you give yourself every opportunity to do that.
You have definitely had a hard time of things these past months - both mind and body. I hope the past couple of nights have enabled you to get some decent rest, to help promote recovery.
Have you been able to contact your younger brother yet? How are your two little doggie companions? Have you been in touch with your MHN, and has she been helpful to you? I'm very grateful to your friend Betty for being there for you during your times of need. I only wish I could physically be there for you too.
You can see that your many good friends here are all very concerned for you. I know you have gained comfort and clarity through posting on the forums in the past. A brief post when you're feeling up to it would be wonderful. But please do it for you, not for us, and only when you feel ready.
Much love and care coming your way.
Amanda 💕

Hello Deebi, Lee, Amanda...and Everyone,
Im sorry Deebi and all, I really am....I feel so trapped....I’m hurting really bad.. my neighbour yelled at me yesterday morning about my friends, I defended them.. Then my neighbour laughed at me and kept yelling at me putting me down so much....
Im struggling very much to stay here....I spent a long time yesterday up at our Beautiful look out just sitting there looking and thinking about things and my life....Then I spent an hour or so with metal Health helpline and they patched me through to my doctor, speaking to both of them..while I was up there... They wanted to send an ambulance up to get me down...I’m too scared to go outside incase my neighbour is around...

Thats not the point Grandy. You are always there for so many others, whether you need to hear all our problems, or not. Thats just you ... you like to help people, to be there for us. We all want to be here for you now Grandy, in whatever capacity we are able to be. I know that is limited, given the nature of anonymous forums, but Grandy ... let us give something back for all that you have given us in the past. Now is when you need us, and we all need to feel useful, to believe that we may actually make a difference to others.
Please ... if there is anything any of us can do ... just let us know. Even if its just to listen, and allow you to release your thoughts and fears. But meanwhile .. please ensure you have your phone charged and handy so you can call a help line if things start to go downhill too badly.
I am so sorry everything is so bad for you right now. But you know you can get through Grandy, you have in the past, and you will again. You're getting good at this now! Have you ventured into your coping box lately? Perhaps now is a good time to do so. Remember to breathe, and absorb the sights, sounds, touch and smells of nature around you.
A gentle understanding hug to you.
Amanda

Oh darlin 🤗 that horrible neighbour! If she knew you she'd be the last person on earth to say a bad word to you.
Hey so proud of you defending your friends. Now use that for yourself, she's clearly got issues as hard as it is to believe it's her not you Grandy.
So glad you rang MH and hoping you got a load of pain out with them.
Good on you Mandy 🤗 I thought but forgot to mention your grounding box sweety.
Can you ring your MHN. Hope you can get onto your brother soon too
Precious friend I know you're in a terrible place atm and everythings mounting up. It's awful not being able to physically be there with you to look after you but virtually we all are. Let it out darlin we know how dangerous stress is when it stays in.
Sweety do you think it might be best to try and get to hospital so they can give you something again to calm you and help with sleep. We don't want you going furthur down
Please don't feel we don't need this, it's why we're all here to look out for eachother, lean on us lovey.
We need you more than you know and it's your turn for us to help you
Grandy the way through is to keep pushing on. There's only one choice from here and it's up. 🤝 Draw on your strength honey it's there. Breathe nice and deep and remember not to accept first thought, look deeper and find some positives they're around
Love you Grandy you mean the world. Please be ok. Talk when and as often as you need darling 🤗💜💑
