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.

Hello all, sending good vibes and hope you are doing well!

I took advantage of my good (/normal) feeling and I had a big weekend around the house.

-Did the whipper snipping (a huge effort for me)

-Did the laundry and put it all away

-vacuumed and mopped the entire house

-started logging the product list to a new system (for work)

-picked up some gear from the post office ready for Monday (work)

-made a fresh immunity juice (covid is going around and I am trying to boost my immune system)

-returned my library book, did the grocery shop

-called my mum and spoke with a good friend.

Honestly, I just really enjoyed ticking away through regular things and felt normal for the first time in a long time ❤️ So I actually felt productive for the first time in a long time.

Good evening @Meowmy @Eve7 @LookingHopeful @TAB @oceangirl @Shaz51 @tyme @MDT @Anastasia @Former-Member @Former-Member @LostAngel @Dimity @RedHorse @pinklollipop15 and all forumites here. Well done on your achievements everyone!

@Meowmy Happy wonderful birthday🥳🎂!

@Eve7 great work on the triathlon!

Today- Sunday- has been a mixed day for me mentally so I feel like I haven’t achieved a whole lot to be honest. Here goes:

- I woke up

- I ate breakfast

- I had a shower

- I checked out the possibility of changing to do my course online through my Tafe as my course could be going back on campus soon and I’m stressing about getting coronavirus and other issues that are affecting my mental health

- I didn’t respond to my sister who wants me to go back on campus as she thinks it will help with ‘my socialisation skills’ which isn’t true as I know she doesn’t like me being home with only my housemate for company

- I emailed my Tafe student counsellor expressing my concerns about Tafe going back on campus

That’s all from me tonight.

Take care.

Judi9877💐
