I am currently stuck in a spiral that I can't seem to get out of. I'm functioning in that I'm going to work and probably appear to be ok to most people but there are signs to those that are close to me . Self care goes down the drain , housework isn't getting done , cooking is an absolute chore and will opt for the convenience option , missing appointments because I'm not organised enough , kids can stay on their devices for longer than I would like , intrusive thoughts , very low self worth , insomnia and so much more . Tonight
I can't sleep so I'm back up out of bed, however , before coming downstairs, I gathered my skincare , then I've got a cup of warm water and cotton wool and sat of the sofa under my blanket to wash my face - I am counting this as a small win. I thought it might be nice to share some small wins for anyone else who is also struggling at the moment. Whether it's putting on fresh pjs or getting some fresh air or eating something nutritious, maybe we could hand hold each other and celebrate those small wins together .
