So what did I achieve today?

So what did I achieve today?

Well I got dressed! hurray for me, the first time in two days

I made my bed Hurray for me. My bedroom looks tidy

I cleaned my ensuite Double hurry for me. It badly needed doing.

I cleaned gingers cat litter. Im sure he was pleased!

On a serious note I acknowledged suicidal thoughts as just that thoughts. I didn't act on them

I somehow worked through the stress and agitation I felt

I had a sleep on the bed, but only for an hour, not the whole afternoon.

So how do I feel now? OK safe. Pleased with myself that I did accomplish something today.

Re: So what did I achieve today?

hey peace you have done really well keeping it together while you had people fitting the gutters, just an intrusion can become quite confronting, i always seem to project my moods into the next day and it just builds a crescendo of feeling low, i am trying to not let the days control the next,

Lately i find myself feeling good....... for what seems like a day or two but then i start feeling guilty, and then i don't know i get very mixed emotionally..... i can't seem to balance out what is what

Today i did my usual sunday arvo thing, cruise around in my car music blaring i think i over did it tho, because now i am finding myself a little manic, i have so many ideas that i think i will write down in my journal for processing, my mind races when i get like this, hence why and i have to apologise to everyone on the forum, why i am a little bit post happy this afternoon.......

might have to change my mood using, some different songs or some moving you tube clips.....

those clips allow me to access the tears built up inside me..... for some reason i cannot cry about my own situation but when i watch the good deeds clips, i cry my eyes out...... i know it is not exactly normal but for some reason it feels right....... i don't understand my own emotions and i have hi-jacked this post and gone off on a weird tangent......

OK today i achieved getting confused by my own emotions....

got out of the house which always feels good

i sat back at the top of the hills and watched a good couple of hours pass by, watching the world so to speak

i haven't achieved it yet but i am going to message a friend later and see if they want to catch up for dinner some time during thee week

sorry again for hijacking and weird tangent

lol

Well

Today has been busy.

I completed a chapter of a biograohy I'm writing.

wrote an essay regarding the daily experience of living with a trauma based condition.

I went to the library to return and then borrow some books and graphic novels

I attended an appointment with my employment service provider and didn't want to nut him.

I research some articles then collated the research.

I bought dog food for my little mate Trev.

then.....

I began researching a new essay regarding cynacism in a mental health setting.

I have discovered that keepimg my mind a lil too busy keeps me from remembering.

Re: So what did I achieve today?

OMG @Rick that so was a busy day. I'd love to be able to write. I used to. But I kinda lost motivation and creativity. They got buried under a pile of saddness and fear and maybe something else. Nevermind. If I may take a leaf out of your book of hope and remind myself that there is always hope. And secondly know that I am at lest an avid reader.

Re: So what did I achieve today?

what did i achieve today...... woke up early, after a couple of hours sleep, had to drop my car in at my old work to get some warranty repairs done, caught up with my old co workers for an hour or so, i miss working there...... But i wouldn't go back there the owner is not the best.

after that, i came home and did nothing for a couple of hours, i have been so unmotivated lately, everything is a struggle and is too much for me to do......... but before i go to bed i have to finish off a time line thingy for my psychiatrist tomorrow, i only have the last 12 years to cover so maybe i can get it done.

went to my g.p appointment today, just flat and not really in the mood for being there, bless her tho, she kept digging for answers to her questions, but i couldn't answer some questions, i explained about how my head was spinning from seeing the psychiatrist, she was uber eager to hear how it went lol

then i got home and did nothing, story of my life i don't do anything except exist lately.

But i did what i had to do today so that was good.
