Yes @Jynx like that...

The fixation with political ideologies rather than the getting along with people.

I am in two minds on this one.... 

I do think people should be finding ways to bridge those gaps despite opposing poitical ideologies, for sure. I will however say that for me as a transgender person, certain political ideologies are quite simply dangerous for me. So I refuse to make space in my life for people whose political beliefs include a desire for me to disappear.

Or the Cutting off of family members.... Which I read a lot about on this forum and other MH spaces.

This one has a lot more nuance I think, and honestly the conclusion I have come to is that there is no one correct answer or way to go about these situations, so the seeking or giving of advice around them is never going to be free from bias.

Hi again guys, I’ve just made another meal for myself - finally with veggies!!!

[Dreamy]

Well done @Blackcloud and that looks delicious 😋 

[Blackcloud]

thank you @Dreamy and it really is! It took me over an hour to make this whole thing because of all the veggies I had to prepare and cut, and dicing a bit of the feta cheese, as well as making/cooking the chicken - it was all worth it. I'll definitely be making this again 🙂

[Dreamy]

@Blackcloud I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Super proud of you sweet ❤️.

[rav3n]

looks great and healthy too! love avocado 😋 @Blackcloud great work on the cooking progress!! 👏

[Blackcloud]

Thank you @rav3n I’ll definitely make it again since I do need to consume veggies on a daily basis - and considering that my mum only cooks meals that contain some veggies in it sometimes, I knew I had to do something about that 🙂

Well done @Blackcloud 

I am glad that you enjoyed your dinner.

I don’t especially like veggies.

I do try and eat some but I stick to safe ones like pumpkin and corn. I love pickled beetroot and like lettuce and tomatoes so I can make a bit of a salad.

I am proud of you for looking after your health tonight

Thank you @Oaktree 

Yeah I always knew how important it is to consume veggies more, but it’s my mothers fault for not making her meals that include veggies in it on a regular and/weekly basis 😕 anyways, now that I know what to make next time now to combat that! 😊 I’ve been trying to get myself into doing my own cooking and meal prepping a bit more often recently instead of constantly relying on the ready-to-eat healthy meals. Before that, I use to meal prep annd cook for myself only sometimes.

Last week I made myself a homemade Korean fried chicken that I got from a cook influencer/youtuber/tiktoker (it’s a healthy one).

Haha, fair enough about not liking veggies - I know other people that also don’t like veggies hehe 🙂 pumpkin and corn taste good as well!!

@Blackcloud yes, definitely worthy of being pleased with yourself. I know myself I struggle with cooking when I'm mentally unwell, and I normally love cooking.

Your dish looks delicious too, well done 👏 ❤️
