Hi @pancakes , been thinking of you, how are you doing today?

Hey @NatureLover thanks for thinking of me. I’m finding it difficult to function, a lot of anxiety and depression getting in the way. Went 6 days without showering which is a record for me, but managed to force myself to have one last night. Spent yesterday in bed, ate once, spent today in bed, have eaten once. Methinks I am not doing so well. Have not wanted to go anywhere or talk to anyone. Skipped 2 family things this week (family that I actually spend time with) cause I just couldn’t force myself to go. So yeah. A bit down. Been getting terribly anxious about silly things, including posting on the forum. Writing and deleting things. But I’m going to post this. I’m in a bit of a strange headspace I think, just don’t feel like myself at all.

Anyway.. thats me. How are you doing @NatureLover ?

@pancakes Well done (and thank you) for posting your news despite being anxious about posting. Well done on the shower too! (I'm bad at showering when low too)

I can hear that, and I'm sorry to hear 😞

All I can say is I've been there often, and it sucks.

When is your psych back again? Not long now I hope?

I'm doing OK, a bit up and down, thanks.

Sending you virtual hugs @pancakes

Thank you @NatureLover yeah showering sucks. What a chore. Glad I’m not the only one though haha

Im glad you’re getting some “ups” amongst the low moods. I hope its more up than down for you too.

Do you get outdoors much Miss Nature Lover? I’m thinking about getting a trail bike—Well thinking about saving up for one. Used to love riding and think it will be good for my mental health to get back into it. Might also exhaust me to the point where I actually get some solid sleep too.

Psych isn’t back for another 3 or so weeks, been a long time.

Thank you for checking in on me @NatureLover I really appreciate it 🙂

Hi @pancakes , the trail bike idea sounds excellent!

It's still more down than up, but I'm getting by...thanks. Yes, I have to get outside in nature every day, I need it.

Another 3 weeks! Oh dear 😞 Still sending wishes for you...

I’m sorry you’re feeling down too @NatureLover do you have much on for today?

Yeah I’m getting pretty keen on the bike idea. Was looking around Facebook the other day and there’s a few groups that do lessons for kids too. My son loves his bike so might be something we can do together when he’s a bit older 👍 He’s got a balance bike atm, but it hasn’t stopped him trying to do bunny hops or wheelies haha
