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!

Thank you @Snowie I don't feel like I'm juggling very well at present. I can't put my finger on why, I have a few theories but I don't really know what to do to "fix things". Think I need to dig deep...I'm tired.

How are you doing, I am so out of the loop with you and all of my friends at the moment 😞

Re: Daily Achievements!

You are trying your hardest @Anastasia and that is all you can do. Yes we can dig deep but we also need to give ourselves a break. Sometimes we are harder on ourselves then on others.

You are not out of the loop hon, you are just concentrating on yourself and are extremely busy with everything that you do. That is a big job in itself.

My day has been hard. I have made some poor choices. I am going to go to bed and take my meds so hopefully that will send me to sleep.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Severe tooth nerve pain, I've had for the past few days - going through my whole jaw.

I'm just home from the Dentist now - He found a cavity/ decay under the Gum line.

There is no certainty that this was the cause of the pain - he put filling in.

Now have to wait & see if pain has gone.

I printed out a pile of handouts for my 8 Hour Zoom Census Training Session, tomorrow.

Thank you @Snowie you are always so kind 🙏

I'm so sorry that your day hasn't been good and that you feel you've made poor choices. As long as you are safe sweetheart, that's the main thing.

We all make mistakes, don't be too hard in yourself.

Rest and sleep well and I hope tomorrow is a better day for you 🌹🌞🤗💕

Thank you @Anastasia

Trying not to be too hard on myself but we are sometimes our own worst enemies.

I hope you are able to sleep tonight and tomorrow is a bit quieter for you.

@Shaz51 @Judi9877 @Snowie @Former-Member @Arizona

Today, I'm glad I'm was somewhat successful in overcoming a fear I have.

Today, I'm glad I reached out for help even when it was challenging.

Today, I'm glad I attended my mindfulness group and have just finished 🙂

Well done @Shaz51

I fed my Pug.

I had my breakfast.

I had 2 glasses of water and 2 cups of tea.

I took my vitamins and my antidepressants.

I took my antibiotics.

I put the recycling bin out, which I hate doing.

I did my affirmation in the mirror for 5 minutes.

I will put a treatment in my hair and have a shower now. I'm not hungry because I had breakfast at 7pm LOL.

"I love and accept myself exactly as I am."

Hello @Judi9877 @Anastasia @BPDSurvivor @Snowie @Adge @TAB @Clawde @Faith-and-Hope and anyone else I might have missed.
