Hi,
I'm Abbie I'm new here, I'm 21 and was diagnosed 5 years ago. I've been feeling quite lonely recently. I don't find talking very easy, I get nervous and think I've said something wrong and then start to feel that people are laughing at me
i like drawing and making things, my favorite things to make are pom poms
Hi! How’re you? Have you ever made a Pom Pom rug? That would be cool
hi, im good thanks, i am actually in the middle of making a pom pom rug at the moment although i did start it i think it was 2 years ago and i still haven't finished it, it is taking forever.
how are you?
Glad to hear you’re okay oh that’s cool, I’ve recently given crocheting a go and someone suggested a Pom Pom rug. How big have you gone for and what colours? I’m okay thank you, these cold nights are already doing my head in haha
no idea. it was mentioned way early on when the nw veriosn was released. I recommend you email the community manager if you want it fixed --- it used to be really good !
Do you know if they’ll be trying to fix it that?
its hard work
Never mind I’ve got it
It won’t let me delete messages
ok thankyou
hi sorry to butt in
ever time u send a message, delete some old ones ( small row to the right of each message ) and refresh your page --- both sides has to do this. there currently is a defect with the PM system whereby everything gets jammed.
i have just had a go at private messaging you, i just clicked a few buttons to see what happens
I’m using my phone so I’m not too sure if I need to use a computer or something to message you. I also really enjoy art, I’ll give anything a go! My main love is photography and editing photos as well.
yeah I love art so I'm quite looking forward to it. I'm not sure how you private message on here I'm not very good with technology and computers.
For some reason it won’t let me private message you, but have looked. That sounds fun though, I went to a dbt class a few years ago and they did different things in it. I’d like to go to something similar but not too intense!
I'm next going on Wednesday and i think they said they do an art session on Wednesdays at 7. the days there open are Wednesdays and Saturdays.
a square and circle is definitely a good start.
It’s a good thing you gave it a go. When will you go there next? And very true, I’ve been practicing the last few days and I think I’m getting a little better each time, although so far it’s just square and a sort of circle. But it’s a start!
yeah i found out about this group months ago and i only got the courage to go yesterday but glad i did it.
I'm sure they'll turn out really good, and if they don't its learning experience and then when you make more they'll turn better, the more you practice the better you become. I'm the same I get all these good ideas of things to make then I have a go at making them and its a lot harder than I thought, just got to keep learning.
I get like that with new situations, takes me a lot of tries before I can be a bit comfortable. Thank you, I hope they turn out nicely! The idea may be better then the execution haha
yeah this time of year can be hard with so much going on like Christmas and new year,. and yeah it just takes me a long time to feel comfortable in new environment, i remember my first time at work i didn't say a word when i first started but now they think I'm the loudest person ever, HAHA
they sound like nice colours, I think your hat and blanket will turn out really nice,
Thank you, I think it’s just the time of year I find most overwhelming. That’s good though that you still did it even though it was scary, more times and you’ll wonder why you were ever scared. I’m thinking greys, blacks and maybe a mustard. I’d like to make a black beanie hat.
aww hope you are ok, it was very scary that group but think once I've been a few times and got to know a few people i thin ill be fine hopefully. good luck with you hat and blanket, what colours were thinking of doing the hat and blanket?
