Re: A long rave
Good morning @Appleblossom & @Mazarita thanks for the tags and I'll take groovy and gypsy as compliments - reassurance that I haven't totally lost my style to my MH lack of confidence, desire to blend in too much.
@Appleblossom I could say a lot about the issue of gender identity choices. Suffice to say I believe young people will find all the information and support out there on-line if they are that way inclined. I don't see learning we all have choice in what/who we identify as - as bombardment.

Re: A long rave
Hi @greenpea hope your day is relaxing for you. I'm having an easy day today too. Need to try to shake off anxiety. Have just posted to you on the NDIS thread.
@outlander my only plans for today are to get on the exercise bike, water the garden and cook a pot of soup tonight - carrot, corn, leek, lemongrass, coconut milk and miso - it's a favourite of mine.

Re: A long rave
@Mazarita hoping you feel much better when you re-awaken.
@greenpea sounds like you want @Exoplanet to build you a pod!
Hi @Sophia1 sorry I forgot to tag you. How are you travelling? Haven't chatted with you for a while.

Damn @outlander hopefully you'll find a decent car soon. Your life really depends a lot on having reliable transport doesn't it.

Re: A long rave
@greenpea I just read your post about your daughter (not sure what pronouns they use!). Sounds like she/they might be gender fluid which is not so uncommon these days.
Mine grew up with body dysphoria but didn't have the language to express it until about 24 years old. I wouldn't wish dysphoria on anyone. I'm sure we could have an interesting conversation about being a parent of someone going through a transition. All we can do is love and accept them and be flexible for them and learn to use the language they are comfortable with. I only have one child (that survived) and I couldn't bear to lose them over these issues.
