I'm new here!

Hi, my name is Godschild63. I'm here because I’ve had 2 retinal tears and am still healing with little vision regained as yet. Looking for others with the same experience or vision loss in one eye.

I'm new here!

Hi, my name is StupendousCoral765. I'm here because I have been Diagnosed with RRMS in May of 2025 after a year of my health steadily declining without knowing what's happening. Currently I don't work and stay home 24/7 other then short walks with my partner. My mobility has been greatly impacted and I am just trying to find a new hobby/purpose as I have always worked and I do feel lost at times.

Entitled

I am entitled to feel what I feel.

The brushing of elbows.
The lingering touch of legs,
thighs, feet.
Hands wandering—not always with intent,
just searching for shared connection,
for touch,
platonic or romantic or something unnamed.

It’s funny—
being grown-ass adults
and feeling like we’re back in middle school.
No canoodling.
No blankets shared.
No relationships to be explored.

Rules hovering where curiosity lives.

Is it okay to be a cliché
when clichés exist for a reason?

Is it okay to blur the line
between friend and lover
when you love your friends this much—
quirks, warts, histories, and all?

We lean into each other
emotionally and physically,
the weight of the world
stacked on our shoulders,
our minds,
our hearts.

We can’t—
and won’t—
carry it alone anymore.

But maybe,
maybe we could carry it together.

Sharing the load.
As friends.
Or something more.

It’s funny—
the wondering,
the wishing,
the wanting,
the yearning.

Sharing pieces of yourself
knowing you may never see each other again,
at least not soon.
Distance stretching like a quiet ache.

And still—
making plans.
Dreams.
Wishes.
Plans, and more plans.

Clinging to the feeling
of being loved
without shame or judgment,
even as you offer up
the most shame-soaked pieces of yourself.

To be authentic
is to love
and to be loved.

And I love my friends.

Sometimes very hard.
Sometimes too hard.

But that’s okay.

Where attention goes, life follows.

Suffering often continues because the mind keeps returning to the pain itself instead of what can be learned from it. This does not mean minimizing what hurt or pretending it did not matter. It means choosing to extract meaning instead of staying stuck in replay. When you focus on the lesson, you reclaim some power and give your experience a direction instead of letting it define you. Growth does not erase pain, but it prevents pain from being the end of the story. What lesson do you feel ready to take from something that hurt you?

Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post daily mental health videos about how to deal with painful thoughts. So if you or anyone you know is struggling and wants help, click on one of the links below or write me if you have any questions you want me to answer
