Thank you @bipolarbunny for your kind words and a massive WOW for your achievements ❤️

Thanks @Cin @bipolarbunny, hi to anyone reading.

Well done for all the steps we are taking in our lives, no matter how big or small.

For me the small ones when most down have been powerful. One that oddly helped a lot when I felt almost paralysed with depression, was simply having a go of making my bed every day.

The bushwalk yesterday improved my mood out of sight compared to how depressed and anxious I'd felt three days previous. Still feeling it's benefits another day later.

5 positive things today:

• did about 2 hours of NDIS admin, scheduling support, rescheduling, related stuff
• felt less dark and irritable about it, more acceptance that its just an ongoing NDIS thing
• made bed
• listened to 2 meditation/hypnosis recordings by my psychologist
• did some squats and stretching.

Absolutely awesome @Mazarita..❤️

Here goes my 5 positives for today

I. I got up extra early for me.

2. Attended a kitchen garden talk and interacted.

3. Watered at the community garden.

4. Picked herbs and salad mix for a really yummy dinner

5. Reflected on phycologist appointment from yesterday.

@Mazarita @Cin powerful stuff my friends. I agree Maz, it seems to be the smallest of things that ignite the biggest change. xx

Enjoy the rest of your night my friends xx

Fantastic, @Cin

Heading towards bed now I hope, after pumpkin hour.

Sleep well everyone.

Hi @bipolarbunny

It’s so lovely to hear from you

In my experience, allowing ourselves to be vulnerable and share our inner most thoughts and feelings can take an enormous amount of much courage

Finding the courage to explore your gender with your Therapist is absolutely amazing!

Take kind and gentle care of yourself,

Hi @bipolarbunny

It’s so lovely to hear from you

Thank you so much for noticing that I changed my profile picture

This is something that I’ve been meaning to do for some time now - it just took me longer than I thought to find a little pink star that had a touch of glitter on it

Thank you so much again for taking the time to acknowledge and celebrate everyone’s wonderful achievements

Take care of yourself,

ShiningStar
