Could I please have some comforting hugs? I am reliving past trauma’s and just need to feel safe. Psychology is hard, it shakes it all loose and then I feel it all again…

@Jynx yes them really big feels. Awww thanks for the gentle caring hugs.
I was having a lovely chat to someone on the sane chat lines (which i really needed) until I got rudely interrupted by someone coming.
Ummm i think I'd pick a big cat, like a tiger, panther, lion something like that. But why I really don't know to be honest, I just think they are beautiful.
Oohhh some memes, I'm excited.
This popped up earlier and felt pretty relevant.

Got a stockpile for ya right here @Oaktree 🫂🫂🫂🫂
I'm sorry that it's all so tough right now. But maybe this also means that you're processing the feelings too, working it out of your system!
I wish you much gentleness and peaceful vibes this evening 🤞💜

@Former-Member Interruptions? How rude!! Hurrumph.
Very beautiful, I love me some big cats too!! Plus the ability to utilise my muder mittens for mayhem muahahaha (i.e. go and pounce on an antelope or something lol)
I am always torn, would love to be an owl (cos I've always wanted to fly, and owls are badasses!) or like, a sloth or a koala. Chillin out eatin leaves? Heck yes!
Oooh love it!! I like this one, too 😌

@Jynx yeah and it wasn't a good interruption 😞.
Anyway where were we, ahh yes. The ability to pounce on random things would be great and I could do with the nice sharp claws for defence, although I do have rather sharp and long nails naturally 😂.
Owls are beautiful, also eagles aswell. Imagine just being able to fly away from someone that's hurting you, well that's my dream anyway. And sloths and koalas are both cute and being able to just lounge around without a care in the world.
Ohh i love that one. I have monarch butterflies, watch them from the eggs they lay, baby caterpillars all the way through to when they turn into a beautiful butterfly ❤️.

@Former-Member and not just fly away from them - you can poop on their heads too!! Hehehe
Oh woah like you actually breed butterflies? That's cool as!! Do you have any pics?

@Jynx yes that's just an added bonus.
Yeah as in a breed them. I have lots of pics. Give me a bit and I'll put some up. They are on my other phone so I gotta transfer them across.
Trying to pick myself up and put the pieces back together at the moment.
