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.

Today has been an interesting day (Saturday) for me in regards to achievements which are:

- Had my psychologist appointment today and dealt with the issue of psych meds and my various issues surrounding them

- Took notes afterwards about my appointment and what I need to do for the next session

- Discovered my creative spirit in the form of how I’m going to handle the meds issue which is writing a letter to communicate my issues with them and how I can work on changing my thoughts, feelings and behaviours towards the many smaller issues involved in the major issue

- Had honey soy chicken wings for dinner in the air fryer

- Watched some of the Australian Open tennis throughout the day and night

- Worked on both a baby jumper and beanie in my knitting with the aim of completing them in the next day or so

- Checked out Facebook

- Sent my sister the final score of the Big Bash Cricket with the Perth Scorchers winning against the Sydney Sixers

- Took some photos of my cat Mitz

- Added some music to a playlist on Apple Music on my iPhone

That’s all from me tonight!

Take care!

Judi9877☺️💐

Re: Daily Achievements!

Cara @Wintersweet 😀 ..

my current meds show shop up on tests. It is what it is. I am waiting for someone to ask me why I am taking certain things (prescribed) Had rehearsed being vague.

I declared a medication years ago on a medical for job application, got third degree, prospective employer wanted to see scripts, asked me why taking stuff, said they though 'it was very strong' anyway. hadnt taken anything that would show up for nearly a month, but got into drs and got what am supposed to be taking , well they can deal with it.

did you mean actually dropping shopping ? I have lost patience at long queues before and walked out, leaving shopping behind, not done that in a while, not really a feel-good thing ..plus then have to go and buy stuff for real afterwards ugh..
