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.

Hi @Judi9877 @Eve7 @frog @TAB @LostAngel and everyone following along.

Dont want to be to negative But it has been a hard one so far, it's only 11 am and nothing has gone to plan could not even drive my car 🚘 and park it properly with getting told, (that did not go well for the abuser)

then after after that went to the next thing and took the wrong turn and ended up in the next area lost nearly.

tried to do the blood thing test Dr keeps harping on etc, 3 times and nothing they were nice 2 different ones, it's all on me, apparently dehydrated, so now am at home with my family my furry family and drinking to rehydrate I am sure tomorrow will be better because this has been weird even forgot to put some cash in my purse, so stopping at the shop was a waste of time, going to put the lotto on did not happen left my card at home,will try my list again tomorrow, going to practice on my Piano now it's been a while,trying to count my blessings and you guys out there are top of my list Clawde thanks you all 👍

Re: Daily Achievements!

sorry to hear about that @Clawde I definetly had a sook type day mostly spent in my room in bed the other day sorry that things didnt go as well as planned but Im sure many of us on here can understand what that feels like some days are harder or easier than others but good on you for getting into playing your piano thats a very good positive thing as for my acheivements so far today it has been slow going as I slept in and just had a hot shower and breakfast now yes breakfast at lunch time as for worrying and anxiety that has improoved however I am still a bit worried about some areas of my life,as for the rest of todays goals I intend to get some online study done,book a doctors appointment to talk about contraceptives,ring my aunt to let her know how things are going in general,sorry to say this again but I have been worried for days now about wether making out with someone has caused me to become pregnant even though logically thats ludicrous to think,but my anxiety keeps telling me worrying thoughts about the posibility of that,Im gonna try to get some online study done and still work out what Im doing about car costs

Hi @LostAngel hang in there Love, making out sometimes leave most with that feeling as it another level our brains take us too for whatever ...... it's like a frightened feeling for no reason, it's just our thing all over the world because we are human in real life time it's all called over thinking, my Grandmother used to say one foot in front of the other, don't worry about or regret anything because you have you, you are your best friend ..... I hope this helps you @LostAngel you sound and are awesome 😇
