Light a candle(s) and listen to music!


@wildflowerchild25 has given me some excellent grounding tools. She might chime in here.

I'm sorry that happened to you tecomsin. It does sound like it's his issue and not yours.

I was wondering about these grounding tools also. I find being ghosted destabilising also. It is quite mean if done on purpose and can be very triggering. (it happened to me recently somewhere else..)
