Litsy

Life Update

This will be my final year with #FoodandLit
#RiseUpReads will be pared down next year
And all are welcome to use the #LitsyCrafters tag for anything creative

I will tag the groups below to be aware of these changes for the remainder of the year and into 2026

Catsandbooks I apologize if you were tagged multiple times, you were just in multiple of my group tag lists 5d

Hooked_on_books Your mental and physical health are the most important thing, and doing the right things for yourself to maintain those is vital. I feel your pain of our current moment and hope you find some good ways to buoy yourself through. 🩵 5d

rachelsbrittain Take care of yourself! These are incredibly difficult times 💜 5d

LeeRHarry It‘s important to take care of yourself, particularly during these times, so I‘m glad you are going to be doing that. 💕 5d

willaful I hear you. ❤ 5d

Itchyfeetreader Look after yourself. My participation of Litsy ebbs and flows with life but I have enjoyed knowing I can come back. 5d

Soscha We may not know you or anyone else here personally but believe we 🫶 you & each other. 5d

SusanLee Take care of yourself ya 🫰🏻 5d

JenlovesJT47 ♥️♥️♥️ 5d

Dilara I am so sorry that life, including the state of the world, is difficult right now. And I definitely understand wanting to take a step back. I hope you feel better soon! 🌞 5d

AnnCrystal 💝💝💝 Doing what you need to care for yourself during these difficult times is important. May you feel better with R&R 💝🫂💝. 5d

julesG ❤️❤️❤️🫂🫂 5d

thebacklistbook Do what you have to do. One small piece of advice: keep your support network close at hand, it can be so tempting to retreat from when really depressed. Above all, remember, depression is a dirty rotten liar. You are both loved and appreciated. 5d

Bookwormjillk ❤️❤️❤️ 5d

AllDebooks Oh, Leila! 🫂 I'm so sorry you're struggling. It's a harsh world right now. It's particularly difficult for those of us who are vulnerable.**⬇️ Take some time out to take care of you and yours. You are not alone, you are loved, and we will miss you. X 5d

AllDebooks ** By this, I mean anyone different to include anyone who feels targeted, rn. Immigrants, POC, LBGTQ+, the chronically ill (mental or physical) and disabled, different cultures and religions. The list goes on. There should be love and acceptance for all of us instead of this manipulative, manufactured campaign of division and hatred. We are each other's source of comfort, love, and support. There is hope, strength, and beauty in that. ❤️✊️❤️ 5d

PuddleJumper Take care of yourself ❤️❤️ 5d

vlwelser 🤗😘 5d

Amiable Many of us are feeling the same sense of fear, hopelessness, anger and disgust. Totally understand that you need to do what you need to do to keep your sanity in the midst of this madness. Sending virtual hugs. 💙🩵✊🏼🩵💙 5d

BarbaraBB I am so sorry to hear this! Please take care of yourself and know that we will be here whenever you want ❤️ 5d

Melismatic It‘s a totally understandable feeling!! You need to do what feels best - your health always should come first! 💖 5d

Chrissyreadit Leila i understand those feelings and they can be hard to navigate. When i have them and withdraw my friends push their way in to make sure im ok and remind me that the present does not determine the future. Community can feel overwhelming but connection is vital for mental health. I hope i can email with you 💛😘 5d

Librarybelle I completely understand. We all have to get through this horrific time in our own way. Take care of yourself! ❤️ 5d

Eggbeater I understand. I have really struggled with these same problems also. Whatever you need to do to take care of yourself is practicing good self-care, as they say. My heart goes out to you. Thank you for all you have done. 5d

kwmg40 Take care of yourself. ❤️❤️❤️ 5d

OriginalCyn620 I am so sorry to hear this Leila but you absolutely must do what you need to do to take care of yourself. We understand and will be here when you‘re ready! ❤️ 5d

CatLass007 Leila, good for you on recognizing that you must take care of you! I understand this decision. I understand how you feel. Dealing with mental and physical health issues is painful during the best of times. These are not the best of times. Litsy is a refuge for me but lately I‘m not participating as much as I have in recent years. It‘s what‘s best right now. Take care of yourself and know that we are here for you always.🤎🤎🤎 5d

dabbe I'm so sorry to read of your troubles, Leila but am glad you were able to share with us. This community is such a loving one, and we're here to listen and support. You've done so much for this community, but now it's time for you to take care of you first. We're so glad to know that you'll still be around when it feels good to do so. Take care of you. Sending 🩶🤍🖤. 5d

Maggie4483 I co-sign everything everyone else has said. Everything is terrible right now, and self-care is so important. I took a five year break from Litsy, and was welcomed back with open arms. So we‘ll be here when you‘re ready (whenever that may be). I so appreciate everything you‘ve done for Food and Lit, but now it‘s time to take care of you. ❤️ 5d

Roary47 I‘m glad you are taking care of you. That is all that is important. 💛 5d

julieclair Oh Leila, I‘m so sorry to hear you‘re having such a tough time, but glad to see you are doing what you need to do, to protect your health and wellbeing. You have done so much to make Litsy the special place that it is, and if you now need to lay low for awhile, we all understand, even though we will miss your participation. But please do stay connected, even in a quiet way. We all need each other right now. Sending hugs. 💙💙💙 5d

DrSabrinaMoldenReads Reading has always helped me through difficult times even since childhood. So this horrific stuff has brought me back strong into my reading and Litsy. Everyone has their own journey and way of being. Take care!! (edited) 5d

Susanita I‘m sorry you‘re having a hard time and completely understand that the current situation makes things worse. Your posts have helped make Litsy what it is, and I hope we keep seeing you as much or as little as you can manage. Above all, take care of yourself. 🫂 5d
