    Glad you are doing better now:j
    Bounder has posted a description of NLP vs CBT on the other thread.
    Is it just me or are people getting fed up with all the bickering amongst the fashion posters? All their threads are taking over the first page of the board and sometimes making it hard for me to find you peeps.

    Not wanting to butt in - but just to clarify (as one of the main "bickerers"...); the reason that there was any disagreement at the outset is because the issue of "clogging the front page" was raised (by me) - and continues to be. It has descended into chaos and anarchy which is in part down to me - but the number of DIFFERENT threads was the issue and is becoming so again.

    (Personally, I am posting on two - which may be keeping them alive. One is a debate about the threads' very existence.)

    It's so odd, as I too normally "live and let live", but I still feel strongly about it. This is not to encourage you to get involved but just to make it a bit clearer without you having to refer back to anything; it remains to be seen what will happen once the debate is over - but if the threads with such silly themes as "how do you hang your belts up" or "what do keep in which drawer" rear their heads again, I'm afraid (and not ashamed) to say, so will I.

    This thread has always typically been front page close to the top. I don't doubt (no matter what has been offered as an explanation) that the sheer number of fashion threads pushed it from the front page and it's prominence dwindled.

    Heya guys. :wave:

    Moods are very erratic lately, which is to be expected but still tiring and annoying nonetheless.

    Am waiting on a letter from the mental health team with regards to who my Care Co-ordinator will be.
    By the sounds of it, it'll be one of the two people I saw for my consultation, which suits me just fine as they were lovely.
    Although, the guy had that stereotypical calming voice and Sammich wondered if he talked like that at home too. :rotfl:

    Going to see "The Time Traveler's Wife" on Friday, which I'm really looking forward to. I really wanted to read the book before I saw the film but I only bought it today and it's over 500 pages long. I'm a pretty fast reader but it's one of those books I want to take slowly so that I can appreciate and enjoy it.

    Welcome to boo and any other newbies. Not so good at names at the moment as my memory has gone to kaput. :rotfl:

    Hi Lady M:hello: I have read the book and loved it.Hope you enjoy the film and let us know if you enjoy it as i would like to see it.I am an avid reader and pretty fast as well,must have read thousands in my lifetime.I get frustrated because i find an author i like read all their books and then have to wait while they write another.

I hope we're lucky next week! How are you today hun?

    I don't really notice the fashion threads to be honest. I go to User CP and recent threads subscribed to and come find this thread from there, or from view all subscribed threads.

    Then when I've done catching up with threads I click on New Threads to see what's going on at the moment.
    working on clearing the clutterDo I want the stuff or the space?

    well it sounds like a break will do you both some good. i have a friend who lives in cornwall and it sounds like a nice place to live, well who doesnt love the seaside. Here's hoping for you that the weather's a good one.

    well today is my b'day....im 21, but not sure how im feeling to be honest, just abit indifferent i guess. maybe i was just hoping i wouldnt have to see another b'day in like last year when your just crying inside but have to put the best outside because everyone else is so excited for you.

    oh well just got to make the best of the situtation.

    Happy 21st Birthday, joblessummer12
    !

    :bdaycake: <---- I hope this only counts as a little bit of excitement:)

    I know what it's like when your heart just isn't in it and you have to put a brave face on... but have you got something nice planned, just something you can do for yourself perhaps? It would be nice to mark the occasion in someway... I'd eat a cream cake but maybe that's just me lol:D
