@Former-Member

I needed someone quickly, I was panicing, you were the only one in SF at that time. I tried to get your attention & Tagged you. You must not have noticed, so I deleted my text. Then I went to Lifelines new, Online site & read some help they have in there. You can text chat when in need now, Online in, Life Line'.

They have a new help resort, text chat there.  I had some Relax Meds, so I took half of one to get on the top of the Panic, as I was having one Panic Attack after another, att.

@outlander

I have had a hedache all day, outlander, this is the worst I have been in years, atm.

I will sort it out, I'm happy your doing Art again. I may even start Art again myself, as I need a harmless distraction to ocupy my mind, Looks like GOD may have answered The Prayers as I never thought of doing Art, funny how I ended up Tagging @Former-Member & her not knowing, now I'm talking to you & @Faith-and-Hope in this Thread. The LORD moves in Mysterious ways. I was going to delete my profile, after reading what @Sophia1 wrote to me in CT it all made sense, & I trust her 100% .  GOD is working all things for my good afterall! Amen 🙂

Love & Hugs!

Bella xoxoxoxo!  🙂

im glad you decided to stay @Former-Member you deserve just as much support as anyone else and yes i also agree with Sophia, she is wonderful.
starting your art up also sounds like a good idea, it might help you to relase your emotions and also to help you cope as well. art and crafts have been a life saver for me over the past year. it brought back my ability to experience joy again.

@outlander

Yes, I am going to concentrate on my Art, & Poetry, & Jewelry Making, I need to make some extra finance, & I have all here to build up my hand made Jewelry, for sale. I will finish off my last Portrait, & then write some Poetry, & make some designs for some new Jewelry to sell. All those, are things I love doing, & even tho my hand hurts, I will go slowly, & carefully.

Now, I feel excited to have a positive goal, at last.  🙂

(((((((((Outlander)))))))))  I Love You!

Bella xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx & More!!   🙂

@outlander

Yes having positive goals sure do outlander, it crept up on me so slowly, I got stuck in it all!! I have not been so negative in such a long time, it frightens me so much!!!

I will have to try & not get overloaded again. 😞

Anyway, I'm aware now, & I am thinking poistive, & achieveable, changes so I have 1 foot in front of me now! 

Will go let my pups in now & put them to bed in the Laundry, amazing what a turn about today has been!! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx & More!

Love U!

Its ok @Former-Member we all get like that sometimes. Tends to build then a trigger sets us off without realising how much built up. Perhaps journalling then creating art or doing an artwork that expresses how you feel might be good for you to help with the build up. Youve got us to talk to of course as well.
Im so glad your feeling more positive. Love and many hugs xoxox

@Faith-and-Hope, is this the thread? I feel broken, need basket weaving, artwork or something, left my stuff up north. F&H, should I go buy small kit of acrylic paints? And sketch book. Left my art starter kit & stand up north grr, in the rush to go, SI & hopelessness. My girl loved art, maybe I can do it for her.

Copied across from

another thread -

@lapses a set of acrylic paints and a sketch book would be great.  

If you want another option, you can find an old large-ish book in an op-shop that has seen better days and is likely to end up being thrown out.  If you tear out every third page, it will thin the book down a bit so it doesn’t end up too bulky by the time it is filled with art journal pages.  Next you glue two pages together to make them thicker, and let them dry, or dry them with a hairdryer.  Then you water down the white acrylic paint a little, or any other colour you want to use, and paint lightly over the page.  By the time you have finished working on the page a light dusting of faint text will be showing through, and that adds more interest.

I will copy and paste this answer into the Art Class thread, and I will do a page along with you.  I will glue a magazine page into my art journal so you can see what it looks like, and we can work together.

💜💐🌷💕 Yes @Former-Member ..... it would be great to do it for your girl .....

[Faith-and-Hope]

Hi @Former-Member .....

Step 1

Have started my page by cutting up some text from a magazine and gluing it all down, similar to if I was using an old book .....

Tomorrow I will water down some acrylic paint and paint over it like a wash ..... side to side .....
