Why do you find lent so difficult?

Sweets and cake, which is not original I realise. I estimate what I have not spent and make a charitable donation.

I was in an abusive relationship 6 years ago and the abuse was at its worst during Lent, plus it was when I had my first major psychotic episode. So I tend to get anniversary psychotic episodes around this time of year :sad:

Praying for you, Lonely Goatherd! :hugs:

I'm in the middle of eating my pancakes. Strangely, even though Lent is early this year it feels like it's time for it because the sun is absolutely blazing down and reminding me of the Lent/Easter times I've had at Church. I'm not giving anything up this year. I've actually never given anything up (maybe I should try giving the Internet up...that would be the most sensible idea I've ever had). I tend to mark Lent by taking things up and doing some reading of a Lent book/books.

If you gave it up for lent would it be called a desert-tation instead...

And remember, just because someone did something to you, that doesn't mean you are what they did (thank God!!)

Very true! However I think i'm going to go like last time and go strict veggie again, with at least 2 days a week of veganism. I look forward to the diet of hummus and carrots once more :3
Wish I can go to church tomorrow :frown:
