I feel like I have really achieved something today!

[Patchworkquilt24]

Over the last 6 months or so life has been such a struggle. Over the last few weeks I've been waking up and just basically thinking "oh f*ck here we go again". I've had many days where I couldn't leave the house, days where I couldn't leave my bed. I've felt so unwell. I've had days of not showering, not caring, not eating properly and not sleeping properly. I've been to some very dark places in my head.

Today I have driven myself to work, done my best at work, chatted to colleagues and come Christmas shopping after work. I've eaten three, proper meals.

Now I know for most people this is just a normal day but I feel such a massive sense of achievement. Long may it continue. Its great to feel like I'm functioning again.

That is fantastic, OP. So pleased to hear you’ve had such a good day - long may it continue for you indeed 🥰

That is a wonderful achievement! Write it down and kewp it somewhere safe so that you can read it on bad days and tell yourself, with total conviction, "this, too, shall pass"

Thank you guys. I really hope so @gothefcktosleep

That's a really good idea @MamaWeasel I like "this too shall pass" and also "if you're going through hell keep going"
