Does the Book Club need to be moderated? May be a silly question but I just don't know, so figured I would ask. :)

This is embarrassing but I've never used Skype. :shy: What does a Skype entail? :hugs:

Please do get a medical alert, being deathly allergic is a scary place to be! They can be bought online fairly cheaply. I've been wearing my stainless steel one since age 14. It is too big for my wrist so I just wear it fastened around my ankle. I may get the tattoo at some point as well...

I've been allergic to benzo's (and Ativan) since childhood, and wear a medical alert anklet for them. When I was pregnant with my son I went into preterm labor, and was in the hospital. My husband says that they gave me Ambien and I dropped like a rock and my blood pressure plummeted, they...

Last night my husband and went on a dinner date and shared our story ideas. It turns out that he has a list of some really good horror concepts that he'll be making into comic stories! I shared where I'm at on mine, and had a colorist for me to look at. We pretty much ended up as giddy as...

https://litemind.com/mental-sanctuary/ I like the addition of many rooms in this. My safe places always had hidden sleeping spaces, then big sunshine filled rooms for doing artwork. My safe place in the beginning could only be reached with a boat as it was a tiny island, then later it was a...

Okay this was from the sparkpeople website, these are not my words but this is similar in tone to the safe place work I'm used to... To begin sit down or lie down in a comfortable position. Gently close your eyes and keep them closed lightly. Focus your attention on any tension in your body...

also do you have a safe place? they are very handy and I can walk you through one method, though there are many more.

I'm right there with ya my friend. *big :hug:*

Oh dear, I have a feeling my input won't be welcome on this post, but I feel I must say something. I'm sorry you are dealing with this trauma. I wish you the best in recovery. Welcome to the group. For years my wheelchair symbolized my body falling apart, it meant that I was trapped in yet a...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_(psychology) My brain is in migraine mode and I'm trying to get a lot done in a short time, but these are wonderful thoughts you're all posting! *offers more cookies* :hug:

I should note that it was one of my mother's last requests that we keep her with us and take her to her favorite places.

I'm thinking of getting some play-doh or another soft dough to mold and sculpt during times like these when my hands can't do detailed or fine work! Does anyone else have positive associations with play-doh? I really like the smell of it and always did as a kid too. :happy:

My mom chose to become ashes, and she wanted to be put into the Pacific Ocean, which my brother, and a few family members and I did last spring along with a ceremony that I think she would have approved of. She allowed my brother and I keep some of her ashes though and he keeps his in his truck...

@Nighthawk have as many cookies as you like, I brought more. :hug: You have such a good eye for art have you ever tried channeling some of the darkness into that?
