Someone said if we are feeding ourselves, doing dishes, making our beds and washing ourselves each day we are winning.
I didn't win today. But I did acknowledge I've crashed.

@Dimity I don’t believe that
Anyone on this forum, on any given day, if you get out of bed, you’re doing well.
We all have struggle days and hit the wall occasionally a little sideways.
We’re human. You have the right to be. G

Yesterday I:
- showed up to my health coach call even though it was a bad week
- discussed my issues with my family
- said no to events that were not emotionally safe for me and scheduled an alternative

Today I took the bus and got some errands done.
Tonight I realised very late noone had put the bins out so I did it.
I can envisage things to do tomorrow.

@Dimity @swift1 @Judi9877 @dehaha @Jynx Over the last two weeks it didn’t occur to me to put my achievements into this thread.
Last week I emailed bank and credit card statements to the paralegal.
Followed by record of my completed car loan. ATO statements 2015 - 2019
This week superannuation balance. Two years of car registration payments. Financial year phone account payments.
Had a 40 minute sauna almost everyday. Which means I had to have a shower. Brushed my teeth twice a day.
It’s exhausting.

@Jynx can’t believe how frustrated I get with myself, because my brain 🧠 isn’t working like it use to.
Under the circumstances it’s good that I went to my GP when I did, or I would not have made it this far.

That would be a big source of frustration for sure @Glisten. Glad you got it sorted in time!
