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!

I had trouble with resetting my password and I couldn't get in for a few days.

I'm just taking a break from watching The Lord of the Rings.

How are things? I'm still feeling very depressed but in a better state mentally.

Re: Daily Achievements!

todays acheivements are not so many as I would of liked but theres still some to mention,one for the first time in about 2 to three weeks I woke up in the morning at a more normal hour,its been very hard to sleep at night with ensomnia that seemed to keep getting worse,but thankfully I got out of bed alot earlier rather than just sleeping for most of the day,also two is I finally went outside in the backyard for some fresh air after being cooped up inside the house during this lockdown,three I was able to keep myself distracted from anxcious thoughts that kept coming up,four I ate Breakfast Lunch and dinner for the first time ina a while rather than just eating on meal at dinner time,four I did some housework,5 when I felt overwhelmed by Facebook ect I switched it off,6 I made my bed,7 I brushed my teeth,8 I had a shower ,9 I treated myself to some chocolate,and 10 I hopefully go to bed at a more normal time to sleep rather than sleeping when the sun comes up at 5am in the morning,hope everyone is doing well today and tonight take care and Be Safe
