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!

Today I had mum and dad over for afternoon catch up. And I washed up before they arrived. So we watched an episode of vigil.It was good 😁. I won't list the things I didn't get done though. Stuck in a non active world of my own..

@Ugly_Trout @Judi9877 @Scream58 @Appleblossom @Daisydreamer @TAB hello everyone, hope the evening is calm for you all. Today I worked through some negative feelings towards myself. I didn't get angry. I accepted the great damage done by my father. He didn't know any better. Take care all.

Re: Daily Achievements!

went to beach for walk and swim
got coffee
came home to shower as was cold
started to do some work in sun
had a bad rest of the day involving support lines and getting help online
felt a lot of shame today
did some research for placement

but yeah not great
had to put everything over to tomorrow and will now just focus on winding down for the day before early day tomorrow

I am finding early rising is helping me. I don't feel bad during the day. Except today of course lol

Thanks all and see you around the forusm 🙂

@TAB

I can't leave the house in PJs, not even to go to the mailbox! It's my thing. On days like yesterday it's a good thing.
