Yep, if you're stuck the worst thing in the world is someone judging you for being stuck. Saying you shouldn't be stuck - as if you WANT to be?!!
Thanks for your post on my diary. I do appreciate them when I'm feeling something quite "lonely" and feel I'm the only one.
Take care,

If I get my head caught in the railings, I wouldn't want people to give me a nudge as they skipped on by...I'd want them to stay & keep prodding & poking until they or the hunky fireman got me out!
I get what you are saying but maybe that slither of butter that we get when we let people in might just be what makes the difference!
Fantastic!
Thanks Freda, ODAAT, (Kelly is easier to type đŸ˜‰ ) and V..
When I was 4 I once got my head stuck in a metal bundt cake pan. My mother pried it off with a pair of pliers. I am grateful to this day. I could still be wearing that thing!

I'm 56 years old. I take a rock and hurl into my windshield. I'm crying, no, sobbing.. I point at the shattered glass and howl.. It's broken!! How can you fix this for me?? That's being stuck at 56..
Do you want the number for autoglass ? xx
now I'm confused... Is this baiting, bullying, with a little slither of butter?
Glass might be broken Sis, but you are still you! & just maybe see yourself clearer without this shield. Smithereens may just give you more understanding & opportunity to new path ahead.
& now...my story for being stuck!!! Once my Dad told me how he got his tongue stuck to a lampost on a freezing night when out with mates.. (just things young boys do me thinks lol)...& ...guess what, of course i had to try for myself! So here is me, scared and "stuck" to the lampost while my friends has a good laugh :-/..if i remember rightly, Dad was called outside & magic happened with a warm cocoa being poured down and me freeded with tongue intact!...lesson? Possibly (not getting nowhere near lamposts now & love cocoa :-D)
Moral - live through the feelings/emotions, ..don't panic, there is someone somewhere who will always be there & care for you.
You're never on your own. Share yoir feelings, and start the healing process.
No joan , just a nudge and an offer of help to fix that windshield of yours , if you think the butter would help then bring that to :)) xx
Sozz if this sounded like a joke..it's not.
Just wanted to raise a smile while we both dig deep inside with our emotions.

Me too , just the hand across the pond . x

No apologies Sis.. I got your post. I simply reserve my right to be stuck without folks stuck on unsticking people feeling the need to save me on my own diary. Not even sure if that was what was happening but for future reference this is not Dan's diary. Just in case there was any confusion..

And of course, right on cue..

Last entry:
I am ashamed. I allowed myself to get taken into and dragged under the "whatever" that was left on my diary earlier. I was so distracted by it I didn't even notice I had been typing during dinnertime. That's not ok. This is no longer a place that I feel safe to explore my emotions. I sincerely apologize to anyone I may have offended. Know that I hold no grudges.

Joan I'm not quite sure why you feel under threat from anything ? It's merely people offering support and a little empathy . I wasn't in anyway trying to "fix you " I can't Joan , that's something only your able to do and when your ready to do it , it's a public forum and as such everyone's posts are open to response mine included but I guess we all take a different view of input . I wish you well Joan xx
Affected by gambling?
