I have been making an extra effort as I know those community connections really matter, especially in rebuilding movements.

It’s a challenge for this introvert, but there are ways to make it happen!

(letting go of the rest is impossible, I know, so I remind myself that when I feel better - when, not if - I will have the energy for those things. I always do, even if I don't believe it now. But that's a future me problem. I'm letting those things go for now.)

And I try to sit in that, and try to soak what good I can out of it, and know that hanging on is work, I'm doing the work, and it will get better, again, somehow.

Breathe. Hold on. We need you here.

Sending all the love bc this shit is so hard. 🫶

Just the one thing I want to do. And there's no judgement. Staying Earth-side is the only priority in those times. So it can be a nap, or the dishes, or watching my fav show, cuddling the cat, or knitting. Whatever. Just one thing I want to do. And I let the rest go.+

Hey friend, I'm sorry things are so hard right now. As someone who struggles with suicide on the regular, I know how dark it gets.

One thing that helps me is choosing the ONE thing I *most* want to do. And only one. It doesn't have to be productive, it doesn't have to be necessary.+

Thanks for processing with me. 💗

I’m sure it’ll work out. I just wanted to check my assumptions before next steps. So I appreciate your time and feedback. ☺️

I do the same. :)

But I’m not sure it’s as well received when it’s not invited 😩

I did check in once, was told he had it on his to do list.

I will send another check in. But it felt rude to do it again, you know?
