I’m new here

Kitty_E

I am very tearful today so I looked through the forums here and I don’t resonate with anyone else’s posts which makes me feel worse! I am exceptionally sensitive to sound at the moment and want to shut myself away from everyone and everything IRL but I also have a real problem with spelling and/or grammar mistakes: I won’t use a shop or restaurant if they have notices or menus with mistakes (please don’t think I’m perfect in this regard myself - I will berate myself for days afterwards if I slip up) and this means I can’t always finish reading some of the posts! I can’t maintain friendships because I don’t do small talk and once we have exhausted all topics of conversation (usually this is just moaning about our respective work), what’s the point? So that’s my messed up life, how are you doing today?

  • Hello, I think sometime broken patterns can feel like the wrong notes of a song being played. Small talk can feel hard and pointless when links that sometimes seem more important can't be found. When I feel disconnected I try to find the smallest thing that might be ok, something that has felt good in the past, for me its painting but it might be anything that feels right. Maybe a favourite piece of writing that you feel flows well ?
