Feeling fitter, and be able to do things like I used to.

My first reaction when I saw that photo, was to call it "Bluebird" it's a great looking bike. My first motorbike was a 250cc BSA, an old Army despathers motor bike, with the side valve engine.

Quote.............."think that this so wonderful to hear people on this forum to talk about absolutely love living alone. It is very inspiring." Aye! I must admit I'm beginning to get used to it as well, I never thought I would. As after my wife passed, I felt totally lost at first, and after...

I got angry and frustrated today, as I was really tired and trying my best to have a sleep, but the neighbours barking dogs kept me awake, so all I managed to do was catch a few cat-naps? I don't blame the dogs, it's the irresponsible ignorant owners, who go and buy dogs, knowing that they will...

It's more like November here, cold wet and windy, what happened to the summers we used to have when we were kids?

Quote............"People around me seem to care a lot about me though, but I´m a bit scared of asking them why they care about me." I would consider myself to be lucky to have such people around me, I would just accept the fact that they do care, and enjoy their support and company, good luck.

That's exactly what I am like, if I don't get near to the door, I take a panic attack. It's the same if I find myself in a crowded room or store. I thought it was just me, but since I joined this site, I've discovered that there many more like me, and in a way, I find that comforting, daft I...

Bought myself a new set of Bluetooth speakers today, the batttery in my other ones died on me. They were just one month over the guarantee as well, not to worry the new ones have a fantastic sound.

Hi Susan, when I read the first part of your post about you're husbands symptoms, as they are all exactly the same as I went through, before I was diagnosed with having PTSD. I've calmed down the temper side now, well lets just say, I can control it better now, but as for being with other...

It's a hard time to go through, to be told that you can't work any more, and that you are now classed as disabled! It happened to me when I was 50, and I had worked all my life since leaving school at the age of 14. I went through so many emotions, I never even knew there were so many? I went...

Hi FLaunshine, what I have started to do recently, to block out all the noise from my neighbours dog barking, and sounds from the steet out side, is wear my new Bluetooth head phones, that I got on EBay for only £10. I have it locked onto my mobile phone, where I have hundreds of songs, mostly...

Aye! them days. Lol

Quote..........." I like being childish. I don't want to grow up. :)" Yea! Im the same, but I'm afraid growing older did that for me, and took all the fun away?

I got angry today when I realised that them Bluetooth speakers I bought last year, aren't working now. I checked the gaurantee, and it's one month over the 12, so I can't claim on it? I think it's lack of use that has killed the battery, I'm not happy at all as I paid over £30 for them only...

I often used to wonder what therapy was all about as well, as I never felt any difference after a session? It was good to be able to tell someone what's troubling you, but apart from that I never felt any difference really? Maybe that's why they stopped my therapy, as the only reason they gave...

The more I read of SekingAfricas first post, the more it reminded me of, me! I knew exactly what that's like to go through, and I'm sure a lot of folk in here will agree with me. So don't think for one moment that you are alone in this, we have all gone through the same, and knowing that to be...

I know what you mean about not trusting people in general. My late wife's family treated me so badly, even got me banned from the hospital, where my wife was losing her battle against cancer, by telling the hospital staff that I had being abusing her, amongst other such lies. (which I don't want...

Sometimes when I'm having a good day, I feel like my PTSD is cured, but I'm afraid I don't get enough of them days. Is there a cure for it? If there is, I've never heard of one, but we live in hope, all we can do is support each other, and keep going forward.

I was in the summer house, as it was raining, and was watching the birds at the feeder again, and the usual pigeon who comes to peck at the seeds on the ground arrived. Then this big crow landed and chased all the wee birds away, but this pigeon wasn't scared of it, in fact he turned in the...

Don't let go, it might not be a long conversation, but it is something you can build on. Ask him straight out what his problem is, then wait for an answer, before you give up. I only wish my daughters would give me three minutes of their time, but after twenty odd years, I still have hope? You...

Watching the birds on the feeder, as the parent ones were trying to encourage their young to use the feeder, rather than peck on the seeds that have fallen on the ground. Some of the young ones just sat there flapping their wings, waiting for their parents to feed them, quite funny watching them.

Quote.........."I want to live somewhere else in the summer.." Well, you can try coming to Scotland, we didn't have summers! Lol.

I think we all go through spells like that, I connected with your post while I was actually reading it. As I went through all that every day last week, that's why I understood your post. Thankfully it only lasts a few days for me, but some folk suffer from that for a lot longer, and it's not a...

A whole week of sun shine, is what I really need right now, because I'm feeling low and fed up?

Yea! I get flustered when it comes to filling in forms, so I always get help, which I really appreciate. Its the same thing when talking to strangers, I get really anxious, and I start to stutter, my mouth goes dry, and it always makes me nervous? Yet years ago, I was so confident, and had no...
