What has been your highlight today, no matter how big or small? Come share 🫶

Hi everyone! This is my first ever forum post so do hope it lands where it’s meant to 🤣

Most days, I like to find a highlight 😊. Usually, that means during a walk with my dog, I try to spot something different, something cool or something that brings me some happiness. Whether it’s something big or small, it doesn’t matter. A highlight can be anything!

I love taking photos and would really like to share and see what you've come across. Something that made you smile, sparked your interest, or simply caught your eye. For me, it’s all the little things that count on the hard days.


To start, I’d like to share these beautiful birds I came across today. They like to appear like branches of a tree or the tree itself. They are called Tawny Frogmouth’s. Has anyone else seen these types of birds? My pics below -(hopefully not too small to see two in the tree on the left pic).

What have you seen today? ☀️💛🙏

Hope you like the Aztec soup @Bunniekins I do.

My bipolar is usually well managed with meds and I usually sleep quite well even though I’m an older woman. It is only when I’m manic that I don’t sleep. About 3 weeks ago I had depression. My psychiatrist changed my anti-psychotic meds and I switched over to mania and stopped sleeping properly.

Hope you enjoy your day of visit and shopping. I will walk up local shops later and go for another walk in a native gully up the road from my place. Can’t walk along beach because the algal bloom here in SA is affecting my local beach.

Hoping I’ll recover soon.

I didn’t have depression for long. I prefer it to mania and not sleeping. When I’m stable I sleep for at least 8 hours. Think my psychiatrist might have to increase the dose of one of my meds to control mania. I speak to her next Tuesday afternoon.

Oh nice central coast of NSW.

The gully is nice it has trails to walk along.

Morning all 🙂

I hope you get some rest @Bunniekins and @GezzaP after your not so sleepy night 😴. Hope the hypomania passes soon Gezza, sounds like its been going for a week or so at least now? (I also have no idea how long a normal episode is???)

Hmm clothes shopping @Bunniekins ... sounds like you need to keep an eye out for silly socks! 😉

I just checked out the Sydney Sock Project that @0ddsidian mentioned 🤭. I hope you bought the cancer research / body parts socks?? 😅🤣

I love they have different fundraiser ones 😊. If im paying for clothes I do like it when a portion of profits go to a good cause.

Hmm I wonder what would be on SANE socks? Other than brains/neurons?

Hoping my 'highlight' for today goes well. Will be going to a dog high tea! Its a fundraiser. I dont know anyone else going. And I have no idea how it will be setup in terms of spacing - given i have a large dog lol. But im bringing my non-grumpy (female) dog, since she loves all people, all dogs and is not protective of her food (because they get some too!)

@AlwaysMyself didn’t go back to sleep. Hypomania can last a while, but I’m not too bad today. Psychiatrist will call me Tuesday afternoon maybe she’ll change my meds.

Will do some gardening today - just a little bit.

Already walked to the local shops to get a few things. Got leftovers for lunch. Will watch women’s AFL in the afternoon. Might go for another walk too.
