Daily Achievements!

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!

Hi @TAB you know you can do it. Im just so happy to be looking forward to doing things that will make me feel good. I have prepared a packing list - up to 95 items to fit in two bags. It’s not looking so good. I guess I’ll need to make do with one less pair of jeans…

Am off to camp in the rainforest for a long weekend and lots of walking/hiking. Will tell all when I return. Fully expect to get my boots wet!! I even hope it rains so I can see how the new rain gear goes.

How’s the moving going. Are you having to be “creative” as you move the furniture around?

Re: Daily Achievements!

Hey @TAB a motel? Sounds like a goer if you want to leave it all behind for a day or two…

Re: Daily Achievements!

Just a cheerio @TAB to say how impressed I am with your resourcefulness and organisation skills in getting all this accommodation stuff sorted. I couldn't do it.

It's a bit ironic that you're returning to a place you've lived in before... I hope you have a sense of progress. A while back I was googling places for sale and saw my first ever rental was on the market. Deja vu.

Yesterday I started with a lifestyle coach re diet and exercise. I'm not sure whether that's an achievement or admission of defeat. I guess time will tell.

Good luck @TAB hope you have a good weekend.

Re: Daily Achievements!

I seriously look into the past @Dimity okay yeah I did stay at usual motel interstate, went to places I knew and liked even for walks or a swim.

..but that was Good things about the past and nothing to do with whatever reason it was I left for

yeah, being there beats being here atm re 'old ' place plus supposed to be better accom ar ha ok refurbished.

well , well said re life coach , but isnt it both ? will try not to labour that . Well Done. Hope you have a Good Weekend as well ..
