Daily Achievements!

Hi forum friends! I've decided to start a new thread on Daily Achievements because I suffer from depression as one of my mental illness and that means it's often hard for me to remind myself that I do actually things in my day, no matter how small they may be. I thought forumites could post here a daily achievement or 2 so we can remind ourselves that we have done something good each day. It can be as big or as small as you like. Just as long as what you did makes you proud and happy.

I'm tagging @roses @Bow @Shaz51 @BPDSurvivor @saltandpepper @Daisydreamer @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member @TideisTurning @Former-Member @frog @Sans911 @outlander

in case you might be interested as well as anyone else who wants to join in!

So, to get this discussion started, I'll post my achievements today which are:

- I had a gorgeous cup of tea which helped me deal with some anxiety I was experiencing;

- I paid my car registration which was due today.


See what I mean about achievements? Mine may seem small or irrelevant to some people but to me, because I have depression, these are actually major in the scheme of my life. I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Hi there @LostAngel @TAB @Anastasia @BPDSurvivor @HenryX @Shaz51 @frog @Clawde @Former-Member @Daisydreamer and all forumites here.

@BPDSurvivor I like your new spin on the Daily Achievements line- a to do list of possible achievements! That's a great way of looking at things! I'm now curious to know what you did achieve like getting that loaf of bread!

Today, my achievements have been:

- Taking 90 minutes out of my daily life to just lie in bed with my eyes closed and just be in the moment. It was very relaxing and I really enjoyed it. I effectively 'lived in my lungs' instead of my heart and my head as the poem by John Roedel says in his poem titled ' The anatomy of Peace'. Feel free to look it up if you're interested in this sort of thing as it's quite an interesting and enjoyable poem and piece of literature.

- I sent an email to my psychologist tonight after having voices tell me that he's going to hurt me and to let him know that I know this isn't true and why I believe the voices are happening to me (currently under lots of stress with moving and uni work)

- Spoke to my father after he called me to let me know when my car is being towed to his mechanic (Tuesday lunchtime)

- Completed this past weeks uni coursework and am now ready to sit the fortnightly quiz tomorrow when I wake up

- Started another beanie to help me deal with the whole voices thing tonight and to help me calm down.

As of tomorrow, my list of things to do are.:

- Start an essay draft for uni that's due next Monday

- Do my uni quiz assessment

- Visit the dentist for an emergency appointment

- Go to Spotlight and purchase some wool in Harry Potter Gryffindor colours with my housemate so she can knit her own scarf

- Complete tidying up my car before it goes to the mechanic on Tuesday

Good luck with your achievements forumite friends!

Judi9877☺️💐
