I'm wondering, how to make gentle suggestions to members. I'm not that good at it, so usually post hugs only
 And as we don't see the person we don't know if they might be helped by something a little out of the box or not. And then we are hemmed in byold parental abusive messages other hurtful messages our own inner critic guidelines here so no wonder I stay quiet

((((Fuzzybear)))) (I'm wondering, how to make gentle suggestions to members.) I myself would think all suggestions are ideas we can all learn from. Your suggestion may or may not work for someone else but the fact that you stopped by makes all the differace in the world. A hug or suggestions means someone cares. Thank you for caring.

Hi Fuzzy-I'm sorry about the abusive and hurtful words your parents have directed at you. Maybe your grandparents did that to them and unfortunately, that is the only way they know how to parent? Do you see any solution to this?
As for not knowing how to express yourself with words more, I feel as long as you are sincere, any gesture, verbal or a hug, is golden.

I agree with what people have said above. Depressedalaskan and TerryL make a good point when they say that the fact you commented on a post is positive in itself, as it shows that you care about the other person and try to be helpful.
We can't always come up with a proper solution that is right for the other person, but we can show our support and offer them some kindness. Don't fear - just try it. At the same time, can I say that your hugs are still appreciated as well, of course, Fuzzy! :-)

I think for me, sometimes it is just knowing that there is someone out there and I am not walking this planet alone that means the most in really hard times.
I think there is not a right or wrong thing to hear at those times, as the low thoughts or feelings being experienced just need time to pass - but a hand to "hold" at those times is priceless. Hugs to you - Soup

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
