What do you need emotionally right now, and why?

Time with my teenage daughter, her compliments, the laughs we had.

I need to think better of myself and be more forgiving of my faults and flaws, mistakes and poor decisions. Why? Many reasons but mainly because I suffered prolonged and multiple traumas, had poor role models, and no support for the longest time... I was left to figure things out on my own with a world of misinformation and lies in my head.

I need to believe in myself. I have learned many skills over the years, but I’ve allowed others to use intimidation and manipulation to make me feel otherwise.

definitely laughter would help a lot, and someone who is there for me.

Always laughter @mshienie!!! I can deal with just about anything if there is laughter. Best free therapy in the world. And you can let us be here for you until that special someone comes along. Some great people here to walk with you on your journey.

Yes you are right about that, and sometimes that is all you need is the joy of laughter. That is for sure. Glad to hear that you are on here. Awesome

Right now like literally right now? I need a hug, for someone to tell me I'm not crazy, for someone to tell me that I'm good enough and worthy of love and deserve to be comforted when I am in a crisis. That this isn't my fault. And I'm doing my best. And I need to feel more grounded.

I need warmth, attunement, understanding, because I feel sad, alone and misunderstood.

A dog to pet and go out walking with. I had dogs most of my life. Having a dog makes me feel protected and loved.

Just want to send you my thoughts of care for you when I read this.

Thank you. That was very kind and warmed my heart.

Sleep!

Sushi.

Which means I want to feel like a kid, not feel fat, feel satisfied, with a quantum of bliss waved over the entire emotional cocktail.

Why? Probably because I feel old, fat, unsatisfied, and blurry / want the sharpening of focus that follows joy.
