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!

My achievement @TAB was going grocery shopping. It’s all still sitting in the kitchen bench though! 😂. You have inspired me to do the rubbish though! Thanks

Re: Daily Achievements!

fair enough @Captain24 shopping can be harder than it sounds sometimes.

I just put washing on here.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Well done @TAB @Captain24

I've done a bit of tidying/decluttering today, picking the low-hanging fruit. Did a shelf in a kitchen cupboard, a few books, a few clothes. Got a load of washing done, it's good drying weather.

Re: Daily Achievements!

You have done a lot @Dimity. You should be proud. I’ve now done the rubbish too. But the groceries are still in the bench.

Re: Daily Achievements!

So yesterdays achievement was staying out of bed and making myself go to 2 appointments.

Today has been. 4 loads of washing, cleaned out 3 spare rooms, cleaned out garage and cleaned out linen closet. 3 loads to the tip and 1 to vinnies. Plus general clean of the whole house.

Hmm I think I may be feeling a little too good. 😝
