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.

Thats great regarding your power bills yes I have heard we are getting a $500 electricity subsidy soon for winter @TAB I think it starts the 1st July from what I read in The Age. I will post on SANE when I know more.

OK I have just organised some shopping for this week. The grocery bill came to $120. Have had to squeeze a lot out of my budget

Have cleaned off my kitchen table and am washing some clothes in the washing machine

Will organise lunch soon

Then wipe the stove and bench-top this afternoon.

And add some hard garbage to the neighbours pile of mess over the road

That will be it

@Former-Member hey SG, you're doing well with self care, exercises and chores. Just been out for a stroll in a shopping centre. It was crowded due to school holiday. Just had lunch. Sitting back for a rest for now. Take care

Re: Daily Achievements!

Just got around to tossing some hard garbage packaging stuff on the neighbours over the road's collection pile. I have an old rug that has just about "had it" so will get rid of it tomorrow.

Got a couple of things delivered. A doctor on you tube has recommended specific vitamins for overactive bladder. I hope I get results. People in the comments description have got relief following the advice from this doctor who has been practicing for a long time with this issue in his clinic and has "seen it all" with the cures being promoted online. Also got some more blue light blocker glasses so I don't get internet glare going in my eyes - its known as a new occupational hazard - computer screens and vision.

Did some leg exercises with ankle weights this afternoon and feels as if my leg muscles are more engaged. Its a good feeling. Never felt this excited over exercise before lol. I'm just about to get my laser out to irradiate my blood again - its boosted my energy and vitality significantly.

Cooking a lentil stew for dinner then another walk using weights and nordic poles tonight

Hi Everyone. Today my project passed a review by a major management committee. Almost everyone assured me I’d a “green” vote. I’m wrapped. Next step is for final approval by the gods.
