@TAB I can wholeheartedly reassure you that I have done and am doing all of the things on your list.
✅ Drink 2 litres of water
✅ Box breath work & 4 - 7 - 8 in the sauna
✅ Have sleep meds
✅ GP follow up in 2 weeks
I was having trauma responses until I started on new medication.
You got to remember I was in a psychologically, emotionally and financially abusive relationship for 13 years.
I’ve got to give my lawyer as much ammunition as she needs.

@TAB my daughters are taking me out tomorrow night. Drinks, dinner and then ARC Led Zeppelin IV at Perth Concert Hall.
I don’t think we will get too messy 🤔
But it will release some pressure.

Good evening @Glisten @TAB @Jynx @dehaha @Dimity @Shaz51 @tyme and everyone here. Well done on all of your wonderful achievements! Getting out of bed and having a shower is a massive achievement and I’m so proud of you for achieving this feat! Sharing your achievements here is also great and inspiring so well done!
Long time no post for me - sorry!
Over the past 2 weeks, I’ve achieved the following things:

- Made a complaint about a customer service member and advocated for myself to get a resolution over the iPhone sale
- Took meds
- submitted my leftover tafe assessments
- Completed 4 adult and baby knitted beanies for charity
- Watched the NRL state of origin on tv
- Watched Brisbane Lions win over Melbourne in the AFL on tv
- Helped my housemate with her tafe assessments
- Completed some personal development training
- Spent time reading reading a novel
- Paid off my cruise holiday for September
- Cooked chicken risotto for dinner
- Took photos of my cat for my sister and sent them to her
- Tried to reconnect with my estranged father to no success but at least I tried which is the main thing
- Watched several episodes of Gossip Girl season 2 on my iPhone via the Nine now app
- Signed up to Apple TV for a free three month subscription
- Purchased a new Fitbit and got it set up on my iPhone via the app which took 4 attempts to get it working
- ordered my food groceries from Woolies and Coles to be delivered to my home
- Started a new knitted blanket for charity using wool in my wool bin
- Posted on facebook
- Downloaded the new Casey Barnes and Taylor Swift albums to my iPhone
- Collected my placement book from my tafe
- Helped my sister with a mental health emergency and taught her some new coping strategies without the need to resort to tablets
- Decided to look at completing my mental health course next year as it will benefit my studies in aged care.
Take care and stay safe!
