Hi and welcome, @Ace2 ...sorry no-one was around for you last night. Are you OK?

Hello.

Hi @Ace2

How are you this morning? I'm one of the peer workers here at SANE and noticed your post from last night and concerned about you.

Warmest wishes

Hello @Ace2 Welcome to the forum. I hope you’re ok. There are lots of friendly people here willing to listen and share their lived experience.

Hi @Anon1975 , how are you today?

Hi @Eve7.

Doing ok. I have decided I need some NDIS support to keep me going when I hit those low points and can’t function, such as with the housework or a lived experience worker for me. I get very down when the house looks messy because I know that means I am not doing well as I like to keep it tidy.

it’s been proper hard going trying to move out of this current low point, I don’t think I have ever felt so demotivated and overwhelmed.

I made a list of what I wanted to achieve and I got through it, with much thanks to my new phone wall paper of keep going, which I would look at every time I wanted to quit and hide under my doona.

so far it’s a good day, and the small achievements no matter how small do wonders in terms of confidence and motivation and building on those.

I'm unwell

Hello @Ace2

It can be a bit of delay getting resppnses. It depends who happens to be online.

Do you want to talk about it, or get ideas for self care?
