All I want to do is hide under my comfy blanket with my teddy bear all day long. I want to close my eyes and make everything go away, and the world to just leave me alone. Sometimes I wish I were a child again, so that clinging to my teddy bear as a source of comfort would be more age-appropriate then for me - a sad, pathetic 20 (almost 21) year old

I wish I were able to cry, but the tears don't come.... they haven't came in a while. I would think I'm devoid of emotions if it weren't for this intense pain that i feel deep within me.

Does anyone want to join me in my sad tent with my teddy bear?

Oh Jacq, I would love to share space with you. I just want to be left alone too, and no one will respect my wishes.

and support for all that feel this way.

Knock Knock...

Can I come in.

I've apparently been up to no good lately and am being disciplined for standing up against harmful people.

I promise I will be quiete in your sad tent. I will bring my Teddys too....xtra in case anyone wants one and doesn't have one.

[Rohag]

Peace and much comfort to you! Just let time dissolve, if you can, laying aside the idea of "age appropriate." Hug your bear. Teddy lives through you, and maybe he or she can somehow serve to convey to you the care we electronic phantoms cannot, even with the best of smilies.

(((((((((((everyone)))))))))
hugs to all that feel along similar lines... thank you for not leaving me alone in my tent

[turquoisesea]

I'll join you too

I make my own tent alot. I bring my stuffed animals sometimes too. So I'm all for a bigger tent with a few more inside

[Fuzzybear]

I'll join you too

((((((((((((( jacq )))))))))))))))

(((((((((((((((((((jacq))))))))))))))))))))))))

I'll hide with you. I'll bring my two stuffed dogs that I got because they look like my real dogs at home. You are never too old for stuffed animals, I say!!!

[Sphinx_23]

Is there any room left for me?
I'd like to borrow one of Elysium's teddys if that would be okay

(((everybody)))

[GlitterDust]

(((jacq10)))
I could have written that myself
I'll come and hide with you all, I'll bring my pillow along to give me comfort

[jacq10]

Of course there is still room.. and plenty of teddies to go around

[jetblackaura]

Room for 1 more? I have 3 major assesments this week and I'm totally not coping so hiding from the world with my teddy sounds like a good idea...(((((((everyone)))))))

Are you coming down w/ a virus? I've seen it too many times were someone thought they were having a emotional or mental day, when it turns out they were getting sick-and that includes my kids. Guess the brain might
have more than one way to get you to lay your butt down and rest.
I understand your 'go hide' feeling, escpecially at the age your at (I'm 44),
but I'll tell you something-it will just get worse and worse the more you give in to it. Same way, you could 'train yourself' into something that feels great:
Take a refreshing shower and go outside for a walk instead. Life is short, and there are beautiful views and people (maybe) who would benefit from
the briefest smile from you, and even a polite 'hello'.
If you feel like you are going to fall asleep on a dime when you get back home...it's a virus working on you.

hello jacq ill hide with you, and hey having a teddy makes you feel safe. im 22 an ive always got my teddy with me it just makes me feel safe as though noone or thing can hurt me.
i hope your having a better day and if you want ill stay and hide with you that way you have more friends to talk too and cuddle our teddys. ( can we have a teddy bear picnic ) and when you feel like you dont want to hide anymore we will both come out of hiding together, and with whoever else feels like coming out from hiding.
((((((((((((((jacq)))))))))))))))))
take care and sending you hugs.

[jacq10]

((((((jetblack))))) of course there is room for you! i'm sorry to hear that you're not coping well either

(((((best)))) I think the only case of illness I'm coming down with is a good case of exam-itis with a dose of too-much-winter and stress! I am on the look-out for getting sick though.. seems to always happen this time of year after the stress from exams is over!

(((((((teary_me))))) You just made my day! You also put that song about Teddy's bears going on a picnic in my head! "Today's the day the teddy bears have their piiiiiiiiiicnic!" Anyone else remember that? lol

[jacq10]

I found the song!
Though I think what I remember it from was a movie... but here it is nonetheless!
