Psychmom!

I do hope things are going as well as possible at Psych HQ.

I read a bit here now and then, but at nearly 6 years out I’m spending less time here at SI and more out there living and working to create the M both I and Mr Psych want and deserve.

SI is a beautiful thing, but reading about other people still in pain and struggling every single day -- can be tough.

But life is to be lived and what I’ve learned from SI stays with me each day.

To know we're not alone, and have so many kind souls to lean on as needed is an amazing thing.

We all need to be reminded of what we can choose to do with this situation.

So true, and yet, not always easy.

After we process the pain and repeat that cycle a few hundred times, there are those moments of peace and clarity. I was never sure I would get here, but so glad to be on the other side of being overwhelmed by it all.

I’m happy for you, Oldwounds. I hope things continue going well and you continue to enjoy life and your reconfigured M.

Thanks so much and thanks for all the help during those darker days!

I hope your rebuild continues as you exorcise and/or exercise (make those ghosts work for it at least) those occasional ghosts of the past.

Hey Tentwinkletoes --

Like you I've found lock down to be a blessing of time spent together.

Responding to the outside world adversity as a team, feels pretty good. It does give the rebuild a chance to show each other that once again, we can get each other's back.

However had added complications which means I'm likely further behind.

Well, I do hope you continue to recover and heal. I found year four to be much better than year three.

However seeing how much progress you and your wife make really does fill me with joy and hope.

Long may it continue.

Thanks very, very much, best to you and yours as well.

Good to see you brother.

Best wishes on your future!

Thanks Extra-Ordinary Dude.

I hope you're finding some peace these days as well!

Hey Oldwounds! Great to hear from you!

For me you are part of the sanity in an otherwise insane world.

Must say I got a bit worried there when you went 'out of signal'....

the immaturity of young love that aims for what we can take from each other, and that some of us find mature love -- and that's a love that's all about what we can give to each other.

So true, it has been a big chunk of helping me accept the past.

It has helped me to get my second start at life into gear.

Must say I got a bit worried there when you went 'out of signal'....

Hey Iam!

Glad to 'hear' you are doing better.

You live half way around the world from me and yet, our life experiences are frighteningly similar.

I may go "out of signal" again here, as taking time to focus on the good stuff here at home. When I first read your messages and joined SI because our stories were so much the same, I didn't imagine I would be this happy again.

Life is uphill, both ways, yet, there is still some joy to be found.

Take care kind Sir!
