Today I feel very proud of myself, I used to present a show on a local radio station but I left a year ago. Since then they've gone fm ( I only left due to my timetables at college not matching) I

Today I managed to get my appointments with psych/counsellor sorted so I feel more supported.

Tomorrow I want to unpack at least my bags near the bed so I can use my new kitchen things and eat breakfast on time tomorrow

It's still early in the day.. so my positive for yesterday is that I felt good for doing volunteer work (foodbank). My positive for today is that I'm working from home so got to sleep in this morning!! :)

What a great idea for a thread!!! Though my ability to like is apparently bust, sorry!

Today i went out with a few people from a local rescue group and a vet to try and find a stray cat that was reported to be in labour. We found her, with one kit born and midway thru delivering a second. Managed to get her and kit into a box and into the back of vets van without touching either of them, and they're now safely at the vets house with another 4 kittens, happy and healthy!! Yess!!! I've not long stopped crying and now i've set off again!!

Tomorrow i'll make sure i collect my prescription and will do a small food shop - enough to get me thru until monday xx

Today I found the courage to contact a employer who owes me money and sorted it out ( I was always scared I'd come across as rude asking for the money... Crazy I know!)

Tomorrow I hope to go to uni and stay in a good mood x

Well, first day I did none of the things...felt so bad after taking new meds I've barely left the room all day.

One positive though, I went for a drink with a friend.

Tomorrow, I don't know...wish I could see the point. I guess I'll try and do some lesson planning, maybe that'll help.

Today I did my planning, and did some gaming but slept a lot to try and get rid of feeling bad.

Tomorrow I will do some more planning and get my files organised and go for a 10 minute walk

Im not feeling so top today.. But im going to attempt making homemade burgers for tea later. As fedup says, i got the ingredients so i suppose id better get round to using them.

Tomorrow... My bf is supposed to be coming over to watch a film... Dont know how i feel about that as im feeling pretty abandoned by him right now. But i do miss him (begrudgingly)... Still.. Not sure why i should be giving him my time if he cant give me his. But thats life i guess.

Anyway! ((((Hugs for everyone!))))

Today I went into work(yay!), went to the support meeting with 6 people in the room who were there to support me(slightly intimidating, but helped a lot) and had a nice tea :)

Tomorrow I will speak to the school about my mh problems to get support there just in case, and have something nice to eat

Tomorrow, I will get into work and I will eat, as I didn''t today

Still went in to work after continuing to feel low, so I'm proud of myself for that. I had a pretty good day in the end, considering and was observed and got some really positive feedback. I also went to the doc and have my psych appointment.

Tomorrow I will go in again, I will teach and eat properly. I ate one meal today, so I'm happy with that compared to yesterday.

Hope you're all good too.
