What about a site for the more senior of our user's SWB Senior Well Being?

For the more mature user's of Health Unlocked, a follow on from that highly successful PWB Pandemic Well Being, which united us all in that terrible period of time?

Contact Hu and make your point. See what they think. I wouldn’t mention PWB though. There might all ready be a community that could fit your bill. Check the communities out . 🍀🏄‍♀️

Sorry Isinatra I'm not much in a shape to start anything, but SOMEONE could start something like a Senior Well Being community, even from the feedback I got from my question, there MUST be an embryo of some sort of site, for the more mature on Health Unlocked?

I’ll search the communities for you and pm you when I’ve checked them out. It’ll be later or tomorrow. There might be something that’s right up your alley, Laddy. 🍀😁 If HU thinks it’s a good idea in case a community for seniors that suits you and others in need doesn’t exist, then they put the whole thing together and you sit back and enjoy it. All that’s needed is a convincing email sent to them for them to consider it. But maybe that won’t be necessary to do. We’ll see….

Hi faux….on my good days, I like to share my good feelings and just for a few moments try to lift people out of their darkness. It’s good for the soul. Nice music, a humorous post. Others used to post some great negative thought diverters, most have gone elsewhere. I welcome the more light hearted posts of others, but to me, there could be a few more.

Dark Passenger…..That term was used in the series Dexter. Heavy duty show but I like it. The main character needed therapy at age 3.

Sheesh….somebody complained about your post about depression. Why am I not surprised . A blow in troll. Yeah, that can be upsetting. We should be desensitized about that by now, but as you said, this community is about anxiety and depression and a few others thrown in on occasion. We feel and brother can we feel.

The gap between the younger [ruling] generation is getting wider every day, our feelings are not been taken into consideration, media is firmly based into our younger fellows, if we don't fit in, that's our bad luck🤫As you say they suffer from a certain amount of sensitivity, they don't appreciate the things around us, don't push buttons or apps to "create" that 'atmosphere'!🙄 Us older lot can actually remember seeing, touching those beautiful natural sights, not on smartphones or computer screens, there are beautiful sights or beings out there appreciate before they are gone! That's why a Senior Well Being site should be created to bring back some sort of normality, that the more mature members can associate with, our health our mental problems, we have our anxieties and depressions as well, some not fully appreciated by the 'ruling' generation!

If electricity was cut off, for some reason? for about three months, there would be a lot of "headless Chickens" running about🙄🙄🤭 I'm a qualified cook, from forty years ago, I have my Dad's do it yourself manual, invaluable👍 and like yourself "plumb a pipe, wire a socket, use a saw, a paint brush, a sander, bake bread, grow veggies and herbs," all thanks to my Mum and Dad, can't climb ladders these days equilibrium from a bash on my bonce! You want a "decent" pair of shoes.....get it online [if they fit?🙄]
