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!

@TAB no you're quite right, that is not Christian behaviour and not something I would tolerate. I dislike religious people - by that I mean the ones who run around showing their religiosity by telling you how good they are, they know better (like your idiot medic) or think they are better than the rest of us mere humans. One of the things my ex friend told me is that I thought I was better than her and at first it really stung, but then I realised that if she feels that way it's her malfunction not mine. Let her be holier than thou, not my problem.

You deserve a decent GP who wants to look after your wellbeing, not preach.

Re: Daily Achievements!

well, its in the past re GP, current re pharmacy assistant unfortunately , really dont like going there anymore, try to avoid it. For What ist Worth . my mother was very religious and well as kids we were dragged to church and sunday school and given pamphlets and books that i never understood. she left us alone in general though. @ENKELI its my recollection that I wasnt baptised 'as I wouldnt have understood it anyway' (she was originally a Baptist before running out of options in country towns) told people at school ' oh that cant be right , you must be the devil etc'..fromt he people who were not remotely christian but went to church for weddings funerals and xmas and easter at a stretch lol ..

@TAB Sunday Christians. For an hour on Sunday they obey the laws of the Bible and then feel self righteous for the rest of the week.

My pharmacist likes to think they know better than I do regarding my medications and limits the amount of times I can get one of my meds. It's a pain in the butt.

Re: Daily Achievements!

..So you know what I mean @ENKELI they prob mean well, but come across as worse than busy bodies and its demeaning, being made to wait, then come back, only to be told oh we will not fill that as you still have 4 days worth ..a a a a gh ghg hg yeah, i just came to say hello ! ..Not ....

In response to: Re: Daily Achievements!

Re: Daily Achievements!

@TAB yeah, I know exactly what you mean. You filled it xyz days ago, you should still have some left. Anxiety and pain don't have the same timeline as you Pharmacist.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Excellent @ENKELI I’m so glad to read that I lead you astray into the delights of rest and recreational viewing 📺 😆

It was a late start at Bully today. Didn’t get back to the apartment until after 7pm. Went straight into the sauna. Feel so much better.

Here’s a few interior photos from today.

Re: Daily Achievements!

@TAB I’ve done so many laps of those stairs.

not that steep. Just the angle 📐 I took the photo sitting on the top step.

My friend’s M&B sold the apartment.

Now I’ll be living in their A-frame. Rent free.
