Sleeping too much

[Former-Member]

The radio was interesting today, SANE forums director was featured on ABC discussion about the forums, especially how they help people like me in remote areas. Kinda made me feel at home, listening to something familiar. 

Stressing, need a breather...

@TAB rules of inclusivity and care and compassion towards others, as that thread suggests, is what these Forums are about, not what you suggested - that people leave and go elsewhere to their own threads. There's a pretty big difference. As I mentioned earlier, no one 'owns a thread' here. This is a place for everyone, the only thing we ask is that members treat each with respect.

Please note, that any posts or remarks that refer to, or allude to other members in a negative or condescending light, will be removed.

I gotcha here @Former-Member - not a problem

I have had hayfever or something - I think hayfever - I haven't taken antihistmines for months but it's time to start again - which is why I read your post but didn't anwer

That was about how little medicare helps you in your position - and I understand that - and not everyone will - you are not in a position to say you can't afford it - you just don't have the money - I understands that

And to go to a consultation 50 km away - aw - that is so far - on a good day not bad - but on a toughie - not really good to drive so far

Okay TAwnz - I feel as if I baptised you - I hear you are struggling and can't take much more - an the useless questions I have heard myself in such a bad place - I know - but here you are and we are here and understand

But I seem to be sitting in my lounge with the TV on - gotta change the channel - gotta get dressed - what do I say but I get it

It is really hard for people living in more remote areas - I have this love of the infrastructure - it's a good thing for those of us who need the "Big Smoke" and what it has to offer - you know - supply and demand - how many people out past the black stump need a psychologist - how many psychologists want to work where they might have a limited number of clients?

Thinking of you Tawnz - I never stopped - I really dig it - been there - was totally dependent on the pension - and the people at Life-Line told me about the medicare thing but alas - like you I could not pay for it -

I can now and know it worked - and I don't need to right now - but I might in the winter

Thinking of you all the more

Just heading to the river for a walk @Former-Member. Wonder "who" I will see today ....

I get it @Former-Member - when you are feeling shell-shocked if you write what you really feel like you might get red-lighted - that happens to me often and when I am not feeling at all like using words in that sense

Strange that.

I said I felt like I baptized you because I started calling you Tawnz a while back - ah - I dunno - I just felt as if it would sound friendly - you know - make the name shorter and add a s or a z -  - anyway - I'm glad you chose it - I like it

I din't know you were part Phillapina - that's interesting - I knew a girl from the Phillipines years ago - she lived in the same block of flats that I did - her life was not an easy one - but then she did not have good English and that would be isolating

I saw on TV that we have three seperate selves - our public self - our private self and our secret self - I thought about that and I know I have a secret self I don't share with people much at all - I read a lot and have exotic ideas - our secret self might be okay but it is not something we want to share and this is something we are all entitled to.

Yes - I do feel as if I know you - well - I don't know - but I have been swapping posts with you for a year - and people share a lot of their private lives in here - we tell each other things we would not be likely to share with the people we meet in the street
