Summer questionnaire

12

Okay, been awhile for one of these. Hope I don’t bore anyone.

1. Who's ready for fall and cooler weather?

No! I suffer from SAD, seasonal affective disorder. The shorter the days the worse my mental health gets. The more I’m stick inside, same.

2. Your favorite 2 seasons?

Spring and Summer

3. Did you go on a summer vacation or Holiday?

Yes, first time...

#15- at least it would be an interesting way to go 😅. My friend is convinced my obituary will somehow include a monkey as a cause of death 😂
inkedodie:
@imnotferris supposedly my final words will be, “so, you’re a cannibal.”  I think I’d rather have the monkey.

Life update

My dad goes into the hospital tomorrow for hip replacement surgery. I am an only child, so will be a full time caregiver for a few weeks, as my mom has health issues. So I may be absent on here a bit. Or, I’ll be so trapped taking care of everything that I don’t get out of the house for two weeks, and I’ll be...

All the best for his recovery.
imnotferris:
Best of luck to you and both your parents. If you end up bored and trapped inside you can always shoot me a message 🙂

Seriously, learn from my mistakes. Always proof read before posting.

Yeah I do my best to. Sometimes I overshare and say things that are personal, maybe too personal when I’m upset. Even though people say I understand you but I do my best not to upset anyone or make them uncomfortable. Which I have failed on a few times in the past cause I’m so open about my feelings cause I’m easily upset & triggered sometimes. All apart of my ASD. But I do my best & have improved a lot. So I do understand mate. It is best to proof read. Do it for my blogs a lot and it is a lot of work. Some don’t know how much work is put into my blogs. But I love writing & supporting the models. So it’s tough. You can’t please everyone unfortunately.

Hella true!

We have a private group Mental Health Outlet for people who need support. I am the mod now and I am trying to be active and improve the group. Please share with members and models that may need it.

@amoxi thank you. You can always offer support and empathy where needed. Just some friend encouragement can be helpful.

I am so happy to see the comments and support. I can’t promise to be perfect, but I try and learn from my mistakes. We can make it a productive and helpful group.

Blog homework

12

So, I’m trying something I haven’t tried yet. I posted a question in the blog homework thread. “What is your favorite experience with this site?”

Mine is something that has happened over time. There are a few models I have been lucky to notice and follow since their first sets. What I have appreciated, and it has been a pleasant surprise for me, is to...

With me the connections I've made from initially just the amazing @brubs to now quite a few models and interacting and becoming friends with members. Just in the time me and bru have been close watching her grow and seeing her hard work start to pay off is so rewarding. For me and I still can't believe it but how great and accepting SG can be I've personally felt much more comfortable in expressing myself and just being myself (something i struggle with). Being able to interact with so many amazing models and members now I've become more active really has made this place better for me.

Still echos in my head

I still miss Layne so damn much. That voice, those lyrics, haunting and sad. I feel them so strongly, even today.

That whole set is so good! I could listen to "Got Me Wrong" from that on repeat for a while haha
inkedodie:
His voice was always my favorite. It wasn’t technically the best, but it reached me abc impacted me. There was a pain there that was genuine. And now very sad.

Maybe it’s just me

I swear there has been a number of times I’ve click “like” on a set, and then go back and see I haven’t “liked” it yet. Maybe I’m not doing something right, but seems like it’s happened several times. Anyone else seeing this happen? Is there something wrong with the site, or is something wrong with me. I fully own that it could be me....

@romous117 I did that to Olga once too. She just picked on me about it. 🙄🥴

So sad

I just found out Roger E Mosley passed away. Many may not know him, but he played T.C. On Magnum PI. This was my childhood. Staying up late to watch it. The opening music takes me back to laying on the floor to watch TV. The works was magical and a story on TV. A part if my childhood died with him. RIP TC!

SG mental health journey

17

I’ve seen a few people, @brubs, @romous117 and @adam_bovary talk about writing a blog about their journeys. They seem to worry that they would be long and people would not read or get bored, so I will post one. Maybe this will help them and others find their words.

My mental health journey started at 15 years old. I was diagnosed with severe rheumatoid arthritis...

Thank you for feeling comfortable enough to share your story with us all! And it's good to know that, despite all that's been hapenning there's still space here on SG to be of some help for those who need! I'm glad I'm one of those who also helped you somehow - even though I do disappear (for my own mental too), I did meet such nice people here, specially since 2020, and those connections really helped me too!
inkedodie:
Sometimes the simplest interactions, when genuine, can be the most impactful. I have found healing through helping others.

Please, never give up

Some of you may feel hopeless or overwhelmed. Life, or memories may be suffocating and pushing you into a corner. You may feel alone or abandoned. I’ve been there. Many of us have, and believe me, you are not alone. We want to help. Most people will offer a hand if you reach out. Don’t let your dark shadow isolate you and crush you. Not...

@brubs you shouldn't put yourself down girl!  I think your story whilst personal is important to share. I know some of what you have been through and it made us closer. As we have a lot in common good and bad. More people should open up because it can help others. Though it is an incredibly scary but brave thing to do. Thanks to guys like @inkedodie and @adam_bovary SG is a safe place to do so
