Something that made me smile today or helped me to breathe a little easier for a bit.
Hi all,
I am finding the grid diary I’ve started helpful and I thought we could start a thread where we write, post image or song etc of something that helped even if for only thirty seconds on that day. It’s just a snapshot and not meant to be anything big. I think some days it will be a drop and run for me. I think for this to work best it would help not to have many responses to others posts or chat but really just snapshots that we can scroll through for inspiration or to remember. I do think it would be nice though if you found someone’s post inspirational and you tried it to let them know. The feeling that it helped someone is enough to put a smile on anyone’s face I think.
For me personally there were a few reasons for starting this. One was to have like a forum journal of positives where you can look back to find the things that have helped in the past. I also like the collective and shared part of it. I have found my experience doing something like this is helping to look for those little things more each day. Lastly I thought it might be used for coping box ideas a bit. Anything that you find self soothing is one of the things that you can post.
Looking forward to everyone’s posts.

I took a prn anti anxiety pill last night before bed and slept like a baby with lovely dreams, and woke calmly smiling.
