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.

Hello @Arizona

I'm well thank you. It's cold here at 7.5 deg C already at 9 pm and going down to 4 deg. Definitely not my type of weather. But I am safe and going to bed shortly, with my electric blanket on high.

Hope the day was good for you

Best Wishes

Re: Daily Achievements!

I did some shopping and I have all the ingredients to make salade niçoise and chicken and vegetable soup. That's all I feel like eating at the moment.

I found out that we're in lockdown again so it will be another week until I can get my bike.

I'm not sure what I will do for my birthday tomorrow because we're in lockdown and I don't have much money.

I'm not feeling as horrible as I did this morning but my cold symptoms are really annoying me. I think it's time to go to the doctor.

I think I will listen to some music now.

Are you around @TAB?

I just discovered this really cool band. I have no idea what type of music it is but I like it.

Re: Daily Achievements!

I made a salade niçoise.

I took my vitamins and antidepressants.

I ate healthy food all day.

I had 6 glasses of water and 6 cups of tea, which means I met my fluid intake for the day.

I spoke to my therapist on the phone. We were supposed to have a phone appointment tonight, but she was delayed so we're having it tomorrow night.

I didn't do much today apart from listen to relaxing music, but I'm feeling much better than I did yesterday.

I'm going to put a treatment in my hair and have a shower now.
