Wow, those are beautiful! You're very talented. How long have you been drawing for? @Sunnyside226
hahah brilliant! Ask her what we are singing and dancing to! 🎶
Look, she's doing better than me, I still don't drive 😅
Those sound like great ways to release anger safely, good on you! Who helped you with these ideas?
And remind me, are you currently in therapy? 🤔
It depends where you work! We are given hours here, but it's flexible.
ooh this is a great question. I think I turned to friends and found a really wonderful therapist who I could share anything with. What about you?
YES! They are yappy and anxious, but so am I. 💅
Aw thank you @Sunnyside226. Do you have pets?

I've been drawing since I was a little kid I have another one to show you if you like
At her age I don't know how you would keep up with dancing 😂
I told her you wanted ask what your both dancing too she said pink pony club or hot to go ( very girly pop songs 😂).
She's asked me to ask you if your into girly music or do you like anything?
Wait you don't drive? You walk everywhere?
Honestly nobody helped I thought to myself stop sitting on my bum saying no to everything if I haven't even it a go or try yet. So here I am I gave it a try I like most of it 😄
I was in therapy the person I was talking/seeing left so I haven't been since to a therapeutic place
1, I'm uncomfortable opening up again
2, I find it hard to trust people
Honestly mate i turn to mates or my partner. For that stuff
Yappy dogs the non stop barking would crazy me insane 😂
Let me guess your one of these people that yapp yapp people ears off 😂😂 ( joking way) hope I haven't offended you
No we don't have pets would like one day @AuntGlow have you been to the sensory rooms?
PS you seem like a really calm lady your talking is very calm 💅🏽💛 ( trying to keep up with the girly nails 😂 )
Sorry for rumbling on. Talk soon about to have dinner @AuntGlow

Yes, please show me! @Sunnyside226
HAHA amazing - love these choices. Ask her if she watched any of the VMA's!!
I like girly pop music, for sure. I like lots of different genres tbh, from electronic, to musical theatre and classic rock!
I walk, uber (oops), or catch PT.
Oh wow, it's amazing that you were able to do this on your own... you should be so proud of your efforts. Your courage is commendable.
I get that it's hard to open up and trust people in this way. Maybe you will come back to it when you're ready? There's no rush.
I am glad you have your mates and partner to turn to, that's so good to hear. Have you spent much time with them this weekend?
YES I DO YAP YAP YAP HAHAHA
What pet would you like?
And what's a sensory room like? I haven't been!
I have my calm moments. 💅
What did you eat for dinner?

Sorry bro I was out on the dirt bikes all day,
I'll post the pics tomorrow I can't be ass to find the book here's a sunset
I asked her she said yes she's seem them loved them also @AuntGlow she's so happy she's got a bff now lol
She asked me to ask you do you like/know the musical my fair lady, Oklahoma do you know yothu yindi? She's been dancing to them
Btw she went and got a karaoke machine so now my poor ears hurt 😂
you walk lol. Bro plz be careful going into strangers cars. I don't want anything bad to happen ( this is me caring).
It takes a lot for me to trust anyone specially with personal information about my life my past maybe one day I'll find more confidence in psychologist etc
Yeh my mates are really good to chat to I don't feel like I have to hide my feelings or emotions around them 💛
No I haven't spent this weekend with them I've been working today was my day off so I went on the bikes
My partner has gone away again it sucks I love their job
😂😂 Lol yes you do love a yap yap conversation I bet you could talk all day 😂
I would like a dog. A big or medium dog, a husky German shepherd or mixed border collie one of those I would love
Do you like or seem the naked cats?
😂😂 You have your calm moments lol we all lose control at some point LoL
A sensory room is just things that help people with sensory issues. I'll try to explain later
That night we had stuffed capsicums. Tonight we having porcupine meatballs
@AuntGlow question how do you deal/handle social anxiety in big places?
What's your favourite dinners?

No worries @Sunnyside226, that sounds fun!!
Very pretty sunset.
hahaha tell her to start a forums account and then she can have heaps of bffs!
Aww I love that! Yes, of course - those are classics. Did she like the Wicked movie?
I really want a karaoke machine! What brand does she have? You should join her and sing any woes you may have away.
I promise I will be okay! I am very street smart. But I appreciate your concern. 💛
I get that and it's okay to take time. Is there someone in your personal life who you can trust with your feelings?
What does your partner do that takes them away? I am sure you miss them loads.
Have you seen how dramatic Husky's are?! They would be much louder than your sister singing karaoke TRUST ME. 😂
Oh yes, I like the hairless cats, but apparently they are really oily??
I see - that makes sense.
Porcupine meatballs? Like, as in, the animal?!
Hmm, honestly, it all boils down to how confident and grounded I am feeling in my body and if I actually want to be where I am. I can become overwhelmed if I don't have the capacity to be in my social energy, if that makes sense. When I feel that way, I cope by putting my attention fully onto the present moment and try to notice when I feel like I am in flow again.
I really like anything with lots of garlic and chilli, herbs and spices. I have a sweet tooth though and could eat chocolate all day every day. 😋
Also, yes @ArraDreaming - our conversations are often chaotic (in the best way). You're welcome to join! 😂

It was fun mate
I showed that she said maybe one day she would make an account.!
She said yes she loved the wicked 🖤
Also she asked if you have heard the song bubblegum? Do you like mamma Mia which one?
That's good your be safe. I care about you, I don't say that often
this one she wanted but non in available that's one band
She got this
she loves it
Yep there's one mate I talk to about the heavy feelings and emotions, I do talk to partner as well
My partner is a army FIFO
😂😂😂 Her singing is the worst I think between her and a husky they would be as loud as each other 🤣
I've heard huskies to talk and lose a lot of hair tho
I wouldn't know I know when I've be around one it looks weird and scary LoL
Ohh @AuntGlow you make me laugh haven't you head of porcupine meatballs? This is what they look like
its uncooked rice mince other things
Thanks for sharing, that's good to know I sometimes struggle in big places I feel very anxious anxiety starts then
Your a chilli girl do you like hot hot or just hot? Sounds like. You like your spices... @AuntGlow a odd question do you ever buy things for your future?

Hellooooo 🌻🍃
YAY!
And yes, I do know that song haha
The first Mamma Mia reigns supreme.
Thank you @Sunnyside226 💛
Whoah! Both machines look very boujee and fun!!
I am glad that you have some people to confide in, that's so important.
Okay, maybe think about the husky a little bit... 😂
Ah, that makes more sense - not an ACTUAL porcupine, good to know. 😅
I think it's very common to experience challenges with feeling regulated in big environments, so know that you're having a very human response here. We weren't made for that much stimulation as often as we are exposed to it!
I do like my chilli. 🌶️
Hmm, good question! I invest in things like education and health? So that would probably count as future-thinking? What about you?
