Do you use coping methods (healthy ones... ) in combination or just on their own? I use all positive ones these days. :osmile: Name something that helps you to cope beginning with the letter 'A'. A Perfect Circle (one of my bands I listen to) Do you see coping ideas as ways to banish feelings/urges ...

Another mother rant I really do agree with my sister when she says my mother in particular just should not be allowed to have dogs. She only likes them when they're cute little puppies and she gets to play with it and not do any of the cleaning up etc and then when it's grown up and an adult she doe...

Yay! I can also get back on Bus again!


Thanks heaps for getting that fixed up!

^ A lot of other Bussers have found the PBH section of the forum to be useful for working on things if they've struggling with ED behavior or potential ED behavior.

Exercise is definitely a good one to try :osmile: I'm also a big fan of distraction (reading, writing, journaling, movies, going for a walk with my dogs, going out shopping) until you forget about the urge or the worst of it has passed. I'd also recommend checking out Scarily VAST list of coping str...

My name is Jessica and I'm in my early 20s. I love books and reading and stories and talking about them, recommending them to friends or giving copies of books to friends, and use my Goodreads account like every day multiple times a day when I have access to it. I also do my own creative writing (st...

The Outsider - A Perfect Circle

^ I'm sorry you feel alone, Early



Irritated with my mother

I'm just wondering how the anti-spam measures are coming along?

I know there was some talk to trying to look at more options to stop it but I'm still clearing away/linking spammer accounts in the Spamilious thread every day and just wondering if we've made any more progress with that yet?

Restless

^ I can assure you Xenia that you definitely aren't invisible.

Rose - I also hope the hopelessness eases up. There are very very few situations that are really, truly hopeless.

Just Like You - Three Days Grace

Yay for sleep, even a bit of sleep is better then none like you said. It's amazing the difference that a decent night's sleep can make.

And very happy to hear you're feeling more optimistic, that's fantastic.

I have to agree with Mia and Treasure. I don't think going to the reunion will really do much other then making you vulnerable again, possibly making the other people feel vulnerable as well, and quite possibly embarrassing you all. :oconf: :-? Maybe writing them letters where you say the things you...

hey jimmy do you mind me asking what has been bothering you? I am a pm away It's just the same crap with my mother trying to financially abuse/manipulate me and saying things I do/buy/care about are just a waste of money etc. And also related to the subject matter in that response to kicks - :shake...

Hi Maryel :cowave: I'm sorry to hear that you're in a difficult place right now. I think many of us go through a similar feeling at some point but first and foremost is keeping yourself safe and looking after yourself. Feel free to post anywhere you're like on Bus or PM on the staff members if you w...

Name: Jessica Are you currently trying to stop or reduce SI: Already stopped If so what is your motivation: Laziness/lack of motivation to get tools out etc and then patch up later Favorite coping skills: Music, reading, writing, BUS/other forum I hang out on, watching movies/TV show seasons, making...

Seriously, fuck off and go home if you're just gonna be snarly and mopey. I don't wanna deal with your relationship woes and have you taking your anger/frustration out on me. If you can't deal with being in a relationship then don't get yourself into one. (grrr) My weight and my personal finances ar...

Annoyed with my sister and comments from my mother's accountant/friend
