i am grateful for the friends i still have and will make in the future

Thank you @babypichu5 that's very kind of you! I am grateful for this space, too! I am grateful for being brave today I made several important phone calls, emails, and a trip to Walmart...

Your very welcome. 🤗 As for my favorite food, spaghetti squash and meat sauce or meat balls. I usually pair it with some veggies, today I did peas. Thank you for asking!🩷

@babypichu5for giving us this space. Im so happy we have it to support each other. Can I ask what your favorite food is? Grateful for quiet time The ocean as it seems to wash my spirit clean. Puppy loves to make the sun shine.

Hi @BabyPoppy, it sounds like you had a productive day. I'm happy to hear you're feeling better and are able to do more things bc of that. Also thank you and @innerchildtml for consistently sharing your gratitudes and wins. I hope it sheds some light in your lives as much as it has mine. I'm thankful that I got to eat my favorite meal for lunch today. I take alot of comfort in have my favorite foods on repeat so that brought me joy. 😁 I'm so greatful for my boss. He's very understanding with me and let me take on a more accessible task when I was feeling worn out today. 😁 I'm really greatful my mental health has been improving. The obsessive/ intrusive thoughts have reduced and I am better at identifying my triggers. 😊

Hi, Im a little and I dont tend to look at personals. I want to see your about page and how you interact in the forum. Others may just look at personals. I would encourage you to fill out the rest of your profile and interact with us in all the spaces. Once we get to see who you are, you will attract more people.

Hi @andy332, Honestly I have been there, and honestly it doesn't matter if you think you are 'a loser' - I think I'm amazing 😄. I think I'm fantastic and caring, intelligent and kind, attentive and supportive... and still I nearly gave up just like you. I felt terrible. It felt impossible. I was miserable. I think a lot of Daddies have been through trauma that we don't often speak about, or not deeply. It's our experience with being hurt that can make us such good carers. Some of us are well aware of what it is like to suffer for our cause, to endure through darkness, to question hope. Know that all this pain is temporary, and when it passes, and it will, you will only be a better CG and better Daddy for having been through it. You are not alone. It is so hard to find someone who is a good match. For me the connection is so important. I want something very deep and true. Something real and beautiful. We have to recognise that when we are looking for something so beautiful and special it will take time to find - and we must remember that when we do find it, it will be worth more than all the time that could ever exist in the universe to have found it. If you need to take a break, then take a break. I say never give up. Keep bumping your personal. Keep being kind and helpful. Keep showing the community who you are. One day out of nowhere the perfect Little for you will appear. She will give no advanced warning. She will just materialise into your life as if she has always belonged there. ... and you will forget the time when she didn't. I am still looking, but I know she is out there. Believe in yourself, and believe in her. ID

So yes I'm giving up

I'm clearly unworthy

I'm so thankful for so much today! Today I went grocery shopping, and ran errands, made an appointment by calling the office, and scheduled a meeting for work (via email) to discuss my job for the fall. I rested and ate lunch, worked on laundry, have supper in the crockpot, responded to a dr message, and showered! I'm so grateful I'm starting to feel better after all the med changes the past few weeks. It was good to stay outta bed all day!

-Today I am greatful that I could get a bunch of house work done. Laundry, dishes, cooking and more. -I'm greatful that my new med has not given me any side effects. -I'm greatful that Daddy and I are starting to find a balance between being Daddy and baby girl and our adult selves.

@innerchildtml, I happy to hear you have people around you to support you. Please keep taking care of yourself. 💛

@andy332 Please don’t talk about yourself that way. You are not pathetic, and you are not a loser. I know things feel painfully heavy right now, especially when you’ve been trying so hard and it seems like nothing is working, but giving up on yourself isn’t the answer. Finding suitable little can take time, and sometimes the loneliness makes it feel impossible, but that does not mean you are unworthy of connection or kindness. The fact that you tried already shows strength, even if you can’t see it right now. Be gentle with yourself tonight. You don’t have to have everything figured out immediately. Take things one step at a time, keep going, and don’t let this moment convince you that your whole future is hopeless. There is special little out there who appreciates you, understands you, and want you in their life. Please stay strong. Even when you feel exhausted, your story is not over yet.

I tried I really did but I'm giving up I'm to much of a pathetic loser for this I will never find a little I'm giving up goodbye

K cool thanks I guess

Here is hoping everything goes we first

The last few days have been hard. I am so grateful for my circle. They took calls or text let me cry and then helped build me back. I also am grateful for the opportunity to spend time with loved ones. Its amazing to learn from my elders.

Today, I am greatful for my family, they have been so supportive of me. Yesterday was a really rough day and they were there for me to comfort me give advice. I am also greatful for my job. My bosses are kind and respectful and they are understanding with me and my disability. 🩷

@innerchildtml I'm glad you took time to pause and chose gratitude. I find that being out doors is ground it takes me out of my head. Friends are amazing I'm glad you hand the opportunity to connect with new people! 😁

Today I am grateful for the ability to garden. I was able to put a bunch of new plants into pots. Also for new friends. I have had the chance to chat with so many people and it helps keep me moving.

You're very welcome and I look forward to hearing from you.

Today I am greatful for: - You all. Your words made me smile. They reminded me that its not just me choosing to see the good in this life. I have a community as well working to see the good. 🩷 - That today was an incredibly productive day. At work I got to get a variety of things done. -That I'm seeing improvement in my mental and physical health since changing my diet. This has lead me to missing fewer days of work and that makes me so happy. I'm very proud of myself for that one bc its been a long time comming.😁

Hello, @MasterPhotog, thank you for your thoughtful reply. It brought me joy to read your kind words. I would really love for this thread to be a place that people can expirence encouragement and positivity as part of their journy. Thank you for considering me for one of the leadership roles. I am interested, though I would need more time to get settled in the club be for becoming one of the leaders. I'll reach out to you at the start of next month, I think by then I should be settled. Thank you for setting up this club and giving all of us a place to have support as we heal and flourish. 😁
