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!

Hello @LostAngel @Dimity @TAB @Meowmy @Judi9877 and everyone else. I got up early this morning (very very long sleep yesterday). Am feeling better after it too! Was very hungry, ate very well! Then stayed on forums for a while before having a nice warm shower and a huge depression-induced cry and medically dulled-down lost temper, but am feeling ok now. (Thanks doctors!) This is an improvement from a couple of weeks ago. I gave my hair a good wash too. Now I'm chilling out. Then will eat ice-cream and read my books soon (I didn't get around to reading books yesterday). Will socialise later, then deal with some NDIS crap. Luckily it's just an email, but hmmmm, what a stupid stressful situation to deal with! I'll eventually come back on here later this evening. I'm really liking our thought-provoking discussions in other threads by the way. I need to keep my brain going somehow. Discussions and books fixes this problem for me. I wish my intelligence would also fix my entire mental health crappy situation, but it isn't working so bring in the doctors. Oh well... I'm functioning better now. I still have to speak my mind, but at least I can engage in intelligent dialogue now so that's a plus for me! Besides that, @Judi9877, well done for sorting out your Tafe stuff! You can do this! Keep up the good work my friend.
