Re: rough time
ahh yes now i remember! @Zoe7 yep that does make sense, and its so much easier with a computer too, i might try and get a printer so i can print off the pages and hang them up too.
well i do have a rather busy week so i guess tonight would be a good time to try and do the 3 day plan for tues,wed, thurs
ive a few more ideas for the self care list too so will update that as well.

Re: rough time
Sounds great @outlander - much easier with having your computer back to devise a timetable for yourself. I know some people can look at a timetable on a screen and organise themselves that way - whereas I like having a physical copy that I can put up and see when I need to - but whatever suits you best.

Re: rough time
i find organising on the computer much better but i like to have a physical copy too @Zoe7 i tend to loose things though when im rushing everywhere or needing to do more things than i can count on my fingers so its good to have both copies. i actually had the physical plan in my room and downloaded a todo list with reminders on my phone so i wouldnt forget to just stop through the day or go over snack breaks etc.

Re: rough time
That is where the plan comes in handy (no pun intended lol) so you don't have to count things on your fingers - a plan of how to fit everything in actually slows you down and allows you to be more mindful of the task at hand then you move on to the next thing @outlander Having it all in your head is where the problems begin - there is often too much whirling around to be able to think straight and then no single task gets your full attention - it also helps when you are able to concentrate to complete things quicker.

Re: rough time
lol @Zoe7
that is true, i dont really have alot of concentration. i can focus on some things but for others im often doing the task while thinking about what else needs to be done. may need to keep a copy in my car as thats where i spend quite alot of my time.

Re: rough time
That sounds like a great idea @outlander 
I need to tell you - I am so proud of how far you have come - you are beginning to be the architect of your own future - I know there are a lot of stumbling blocks still in front of you but the Outlander we see here now is a totally different person than the Scared01 we met when you first joined - it is as if the sun is coming out over you and the shadows of the dark are slowly disappearing from view - keep on this path Outlander and you will become all that we know you can be Hon

Re: rough time
thanks @Zoe7
Scared01 was wow nearly 2 yrs ago now, i can tell you i wouldnt have made it this far or perhaps not even living if i didnt find here, so i cant take all the credit. i know there is along way ahead but some sunny days are nice, give abit of hope when things get really ugly.

Re: rough time
It was closer to one year than 2 @outlander - I remember the day you joined - I spent hours on here with you until F&H took over for a while for me to catch my breath as I didn't want to leave you unsupported - you were in a really bad place - so you should be so super proud of where you are today and what you have achieved thus far Hon
