Can I ask you an uncomfortable question @TAB ?
I'm going to ....you don't have to answer- um - I'm not weird or anything -
Iv known this man for years and years. He's very caught up in Christianity its as if life has passed him by. He is 56 years old he's never been in a relationship.
He works very hard, lives at home still but he's been telling me he's lonely lately.
What can I say to him.

Hi @Former-Member
We're starting the mutual admiration club here.
I feel impacted on your message. I'll need to think about it more. You write ;
I tend to think - a fundamental human right, because we all have feelings, and so that in itself deserves to have worth and value and weight attached to it…our feelings are valuable and worthy.. I hope that makes sense? 🙂 🌺 🤗
.....................
Well we are all valuable and worthy aren't we ?!
But we are vulnerable people,
iv certainly felt not worthy for extra help for years and years and years.

@PeppyPatti 🙂🌺
Well, I guess we are all valuable and have worth.. sometimes we get to feel it, and sometimes we don’t 🌺
Yep, lots of vulnerability exists, particularly in the realm of MH 💜🙂
Feeing like we aren’t worthy for support is hard.. sometimes I think that comes from the systems around us in society, care structures, family and relationship dynamics to name a few.
I guess being granted worth and value is rare; finding it within is also very hard to do.
We all have value and worth, I believe; but how we get to feel and express that is the challenge, I think 💜🌺

Oh just lost a written message .....
I get it @creative_writer
Iv definately been non functioning.
Just because today you and I are walking ....we need to be mindful that tomorrow may crumble around us.
I wrote to @Former-Member - can't remember -
That my state of mind in the past has not been good -
You know those plastic boxes with Sun to Mon you can get from chemists - they are not as good as the ones from chemists but they really help when things are tough around you. They can be bought cheaper on eBay or temu.
And a cheap coffee machine. But I do admit a nice cuppa tea 🍵 is lovely ....

Oh, @TAB, that's a tough one, isn't it?
To have to change diet and lifestyle suddenly - will you have to make lots of changes?

Oh no @TAB, I wish they made some magic pills like you said!
Eating healthy is tough when the unhealthy food tastes so good hey 😂
