• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

a bowl of veggie soup with extra potatoes and a fantastic broth coming up.

thansk for the bamboo tea should warm me up coz i'm freezing too.

sounds very busy and fun at the saem tiem (the whitewater rafting sounds great fun.) yeah my last year of 6th form (well most of it) got way to stressful and on top of everythign else that was going on it didnt help. i don't think i'd have a choice if it started gettin to stressful to mnay popel would notice. i was thinking of maybe doing a nursing course.
a lot of my school freinds from my year started uni last year, and theyve given mixed feeling n stuff so its something am going to have to think about but at the same time i dont have a lot of time so i might just fill the appliations in just incase i decide to definatly go for it.

Good Morning everyone :)

I will put some sunday morning coffee on to brew

and wait for people in other parts of the world to wake up. I will also light the fire (we don't need to put the aircon on until the Australians wake up!)

Does anyone want anything other than coffee?
(Arnold, i made you some bamboo tea, and don't argue, you cannot have coffee!

/me sits down by fire to write some official type letters.

How is everyone today?

.... It is so nearly the end of January!! That is so strange!

:hug: Katey. I hope you slept well.

:hug: Ari. Arnold wants to know if you're absolutely positively completely utterly 100% sure that he can't have coffee?? He wants to try caffeine, and says to put this smiley - :( - in. He'll settle for bamboo tea this morning ... but he wants to know if he can have coffee tomorrow??

/me helps herself to the freshly brewed coffee, while thanking Ari for being thoughtful and putting it on to brew!

I'm listening to "Real Life Fairytale" by Plumb ... it's so sweet ... go to my Myspace if you want to hear it. It's as though it's Jarrod's & my story. We've both agreed that our love story definitely has the magical'ness of fairytale true love. :blush:

I can't believe it's almost the end of January either. It's been a crazy month. Long too. AHH and I have a paper due on 1 February!! Must finish that today and revise it tomorrow ... :swoon:

/me curls up by the fire for a bit before getting down to doing more homework ... Hamlet Act III awaits, as does the following essay, and psych stuff to memorise and workbook pages to do and the paper to write....

/me sighs.

How are you all this morning/afternoon/night?? *hugs*

Ouch ... rusty nail sounds painful!! I hope you got a tetanus shot ... that can be nasty. :hug:

I agree. It's insane that January is almost over. I'm not ready for the rest of the year to begin, though, because at least for part of January we had Christmas break ... but February is without breaks ... next break will be in early March. I hope I can make it through uni til then. :doh:

I'm freezing... suppose it would help if I put some socks on?? :p

/me sits in the corner by the fire and tries to focus on work that needs to be done ...

:sigh:

Arnold. I am super positive that you cannot have coffee. We will have to find you some kind of Bamboo based coffee substitute.

How do i find your Myspace April?

:hug: for the injured foot.

How are Quiddler, I haven't seen you for almost forever!

Mb we can all post one positive thing we did in January... Then we might feel readier to move onto February! Someone else can start, I'll post one later.

*thinks*

One good thing about January ...
... it shouldn't be this hard to come up with something ...
... umm ...
... I got to chat with Jarrod every night for a week??

I've socks on now. And I'm a little warmer than I was last night.
But now my back hurts. I don't do stress very well. Haha.

Ari, Arnold wonders if you'll help him look for a bamboo based coffee?? 'cause he has no idea where to start looking.

My cat is playing with the closet doors right now ... silly thing. :p

Does anyone want some chai?? or maybe some nutrition drink ( :sigh: ) ... after all I suppose I have to eat - err, drink - supper. Don't want to, though. Definitely not hungry. And definitely don't deal with stress well!!! :(

I can't believe that it's the end of another weekend. And I'm more exhausted at the end of it than I am at the end of the week itself. That's just pitiful.

/me hides in the darkest corner, away from food and uni and social worries and appointments and meal plans and daily exercise logs and stress and relationship worries.

Good thing about January ...

/me ponders for a little while.

Well, classes started, so I actually got to see people other than my mum, dad, and sister. :) Which is good, I suppose, since I was getting rather cabin fevery.

/me turns on the Enya that Soulwings left by the stereo, settles down by the fire to get nice and warm, with a cup of chai on the floor beside her and a book to read.

:)

/me hugs Bec back.
:hug::hug::hug:

Thanks sis. I needed that.

I'm actually feeling a little bit better. I got all my homework done, and I lay down for awhile with some music playing. I think I'm going to go do something fun ... yoga or at least some stretching or something ... I don't know. Just get out of my head for a little while.

/me gives Bec another big squishy superhero big-sis hug.

The superhero'ness is coming back ... slowly. ;)

ooh... I love the Crucible... I read the script at school (oh, so long ago!)
from memory it's written by Arthur Miller, about the witch trials in Salem in the 1690's?
Which version are you watching bec, the 1957 one or the one with 1996 one with winona ryder and daniel day-lewis?
enjoy it for me, ok? I'm so busy at work - its nuts!:mad:

Our school's theatre program does scenes from the Crucible every year, but so far i havent gone to see any of them.

Anyways, one good thing about January:
I got to hang out with my brother(not technically, but pretty much) Patrick waaayy more than I usually do. :)
