Everything feels a bit flat compared to being high but it will get better, Witty. You could do something nice for you? Buy some clothes online, a pedicure or something, a nice bath and chill in your pj's? Chin up Smile

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/02/2017 17:23

Keep your head screwed on Flat Wine

flatwhite45 · 10/02/2017 17:25

Yes I will, frantically fast forwarding

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/02/2017 17:27

I'm in the same boat flat let's keep surfing. (sorry, mixed metaphor)

You are famous cleaning!

flatwhite45 · 10/02/2017 18:21

Thanks lost....don't give up on me

INeedAWittyNameChange · 10/02/2017 18:38

Lost a nice bath is a good idea - it's really freezing here tonight. Keep strong everyone!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/02/2017 18:51

Really struggling. Sad

I feel like I've opened a door to a lovely, happy, colourful land and I can't stop revisiting it. Even though everything in that land is not as great as it seems, I can't quite shut the door on it.

GotToGetMyFingerOut · 10/02/2017 18:52

My urge has passed for now. Had dinner and feel sleepy now. Dh is away back out to work for an hour. So once he's back I'm going for some nice snacks and going to watch tv and have an early night.

How you all feeling?

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/02/2017 18:53

Actually that sounds like Alice in Wonderland, what am I talking about Confused

GotToGetMyFingerOut · 10/02/2017 18:54

Lost its not lovely and colourful it's all fake and once you wake up tomorrow it will be all grey and black and you will feel miserable and crap NOT happy, what else makes you feel happy?

Certain film or book or chocolate or crisps? Sex? Reach for that instead. You do not NEED it. Think how good you will feel tomorrow, how proud of yourself!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/02/2017 18:55

Glad you're ok, Got, your plan sounds like a good one. Smile

Can't really concentrate on anything, the cravings are doing my head in.

GotToGetMyFingerOut · 10/02/2017 18:55

Alice through the looking glass, yeah Alice was more likely on acid not coke!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/02/2017 18:58

Do you think? I'm no sweet innocent Alice with a headband on Grin

flatwhite45 · 10/02/2017 19:12

Struggling too lost..,.keep feeling like I have opened up a present and there is nothing inside. The weekend being the present. But what got said is resonating. It's a fake joy followed by a painful depression

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/02/2017 19:17

God, an empty present! Shock Like ordering something from Amazon and when you open the box you realise they forgot to put your new shoes in it, just some of that polystyrene.

We are dramatic aren't we? Grin

flatwhite45 · 10/02/2017 19:21

Yup! Drama queens all round Grin hang on in there Lost

serialtester · 10/02/2017 19:22

Am absolutely battered after works drinks. Have no desire for a line after ordering a kebab with hot sauce rather than sweet. My nasal passages are fucked!!

Have you seen the other thread in active about a MNer claiming to have received a small bag of suspicious powder in the post?
It's hysterical and ridiculous in equal measure I wonder where she lives?

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/02/2017 19:25

Oh you've set your nasal passages on fire serial Grin that's definitely an extreme precaution.

flatwhite45 · 10/02/2017 19:26

Doesn't help matters that I have some banging old Skool house tunes going on on Kisstory fm

flatwhite45 · 10/02/2017 19:28

She'll be embroidering them up next Wink

flatwhite45 · 10/02/2017 19:29

Ooohhh what's the name of the thread?

serialtester · 10/02/2017 19:31

Lost, link the thread please!
