Daily Achievements!

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.

Hey @oceangirl

Its been a while since we chatted.

Sounds like you had a good day.

My day was good.

Started off making a huge batch of Spinach and ricotta pastry rolls. Made it from a huge bunch of spinach from a neighbour, so I brought a couple rolls to them in thanks. Managed to convert a boy to eat spinach. Yay. 2 trips to the guerilla garden. New plants probably established enough to weather the rest of summer. Great music session with my son.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Oh yummy @Appleblossom I love spinach rolls! Sounds like you had a good day?
Today I:
Went to my GP to sort out some (safety) concerns and get a script.
Came home feeling fatigued so had to trust my support worker to help me with house cleaning without being overly paranoid.
Had a good rest.
I ate a lot of sandwiches (not up to eating main meals at the moment).
Used my airfryer re: skills from an occupational therapist.
Made arrangements to go to the NDIS office on Friday and have a plan for relaxing and calm before I deliver my doctor's letter to them. Coffee and sandwich on the cards for Friday😌☺️

Tomorrow:
A little bit of housework to make jobs easier for support workers re: concerns about home maintenance and hygiene.
Music over breakfast, possibly some Netflix shows.
Reading over snacks.
Stay hydrated properly (am a bit slack at the moment).
A nap.
Sandwiches for lunch.
Cook dinner.
Forums and phone counselling.
Remember to make another phone call after breaky.
Go to bed and remind myself of the good things in life while I continue to read myself sleep.
