Daily Check In Space

Hi Friends, Family and Carers

Caring for loved ones living with complex mental health issues can be really challenging, and the carer's experience can often be overlooked and/or difficult to talk about day to day. We have created this space so that those feelings, challenges and accomplishments can be heard, and to promote carer's wellbeing and self-care.

To participate, here are 3 questions for your daily check in:

1) How are you feeling?

You can use a scale of 1-10 (1= really bad , 10= really good), if you would like to.

2) What is one thing you have struggled with, and one thing you have done well?

3) What is one nice thing you can do for yourself today?

You're welcome to check in daily, or how ever often you need to! Please just remember to be respectful and kind to each other as each of our experiences are so different.

Feel free to tag any carers you know in this space!

Re: Daily Check In Space

Hi @Shaz51, thanks for the tag.

I like the Words With Friends game too. 🙂

I've been a bit absent lately, partially because we've been busy... but good-busy. One of our sons got married three weeks ago. My first time "mother of the bride/groom". Was a really lovely day. Lots of happy chatting and dancing and plain fun. Only downer was Hubby and I caught our first case of COVID, probably picked it up a the wedding. We didn't get it too horrible, but by the time we were both in the safe zone it was two weeks out of circulation, with me absolutely bursting to talk about the wedding with friends! 😛 Happiest occasion we've had in a while. Did us good.
