Hello, reintroducing myself after life got in the way.

Like the title says, some events in the past and present have led me away from getting some support, until much recently. While some things have changed for the better at the moment, there are currently too many downs that are weighing on my mind that make it hard to appreciate that as well as stay motivated to keep improving. And it doesn't help that I know "future me" is gonna regret this and berate me for doing this but with my current state of mind at the moment, I just want some help without bothering my friends.

Nonetheless it is nice to meet you all. Hopefully anyways, hahaha.

Hello,

I hope it’s okay for me to extend a caring welcome to you here. Hopefully you’re finding your way around the forums okay 🙂

It sounds like there is a lot happening at the moment, and that past events are having a big impact on you. I feel that’s a pretty heavy load to carry...I really feel for you.

I think when we are struggling, motivation can be tricky. So my gentle suggestion is just do what you can e.g. perhaps break big tasks/long term goals into smaller steps so it feels more doable. If there are days where you feel like you can’t manage much, I think that’s okay, rest is important too.

I suppose what I’m trying to suggest is maybe just go with the flow a bit while you’re struggling...gentle and easy does it.

It’s lovely to meet you here online, and while there’s no pressure, if you’re feeling up to it, it would be great to hear from you again.

Kind and caring thoughts,

Pepper
