❄️Continuing to work on myself & overall wellbeing this week through self-care, meditation, journaling, & some afternoon & evening drives.
❄️The weather continues to be really cold here (expected this time of year), but managed to get outdoors with my Fur-baby this week for Three very short walks. Which I haven't done in weeks. And managed to get out to go visit with my Mom a few times, who I haven't seen since last month. Also had a nice, quiet Birthday celebration for my hubby.
❄️Its going to be Freezing temps all day, so absolutely no plans to do much this weekend. Will continue to work on self-care and improvement.
@PoliteOcean
How was your week? How are you feeling today?
my week has been okish, I’ve had my bad hours and my good hours 😊
⛄️This is our LAST Check-in for the Month of January~.....What was the Best part of the Month for you?.... How do you feel it went for you overall?
i guess admitting to my irl friends that I was non-binary as of this week was the best thing I’ve done this month 😀
❄️ What is something you feel you could use more support in , or how could others support you more?😀 *leaves unanswered*
⛄️ FOR FUN: If you could pick & take on ANY Role here at 7cups that you didn't have to apply for, what would it be and Why?!
😮 idk what I’d be, all roles have their homework, so I’d just be me by being me and talking lolll
❄️What were your "Highlights or Challenges" of this past week? How were you able to work through the challenges?!
highlights is that I got 8 plushies this week
challenges is that I got 8 plushies this week 😮 (Emo only buys plushies when is having a hard time, and I got 6 today) :/
⛄️What would "YOU" Like to talk about or share with us this week?! WE want to hear from YOU!
😛 I hung out with my friends today and we basically walked all over town, i even nearly got kicked out of a store with a friend because as we were singing a song a bit loud XD
@emotionalTalker2260
Hey Emo, thats good that despite having some "bad hours".. that you had a nice mix of "good hours" too. And that you were also able to feel confident enough & trust in your friends to share with them.
Yes true, all roles do have their "homework" per say~ I know that each role takes some work for sure. So laying low, and just being yourself is a good answer and nothing wrong with that. :)
Not sure what "plushies" are, but it seems like that is something that helps you to get through challenging moments?... And if that is the case, I would say all the merrier if it helps get you through to being in a better place for yourself. 👍
Sounds like you had a great time hanging out with your friends (maybe a little too much?) 👀...But it sounds like that is something else to add to your "highlights" list 👍 (except for almost getting kick out) ;)
Thank you for sharing with everyone and stopping by to check-in this week despite some challenging moments. And for keeping us up to date on how things are going for you.
@PoliteOcean
plushies are stuffed animals :’) like these: (👀👀 *totally notttt the plushies I bought this week 🥲😅*)
- there’s 8 examples 🌚🌚🌚
but, nearly getting kicked out of the store was fun ✌🏻😛 yolooo
@PoliteOcean Well I have made a goal to try to go to bed on time lets see if I can do it
Hopie. Interested in sending a Listener Coach Request or to be a Verified Listener, send me a PM
@HopieRemi
Hey Remi
Thats a good & important goal to work towards. Do you have steps you will take to work towards that goal? Let us know how that continues to go for you. And thank you for sharing with us this week~
❄️How was your week? How are you feeling today?
My week has been super busy. Overall it was OK. I'm tired though.
⛄️This is our LAST Check-in for the Month of January~.....What was the Best part of the Month for you?.... How do you feel it went for you overall?
Where did the month go LOL It's been such a roller coaster ride so far. I chose the word "focus" for this year and wow do I really need to keep that work in the forefront more. I can't believe how easily distracted I get.
❄️ What is something you feel you could use more support in , or how could others support you more?
I've been trying to find a job and keep myself motivated with school. Self-study isn't for the faint of heart. I don't know that there's much anyone can say/do to help with this. I just need to maintain focus and that's really challenging lately.
⛄️ FOR FUN: If you could pick & take on ANY Role here at 7cups that you didn't have to apply for, what would it be and Why?!
Content writer
❄️What were your "Highlights or Challenges" of this past week? How were you able to work through the challenges?!
Found out I need to wear a 48 hour heart monitor and see a cardiologist soon
@Bre4Me
Hey there Bre, that's good for you that despite having a busy week and feeling tired, that you had an OK week overall.
Yes, its truly unreal how fast the past month has gone. And I agree that it has been somewhat of a roller-coaster. That is good that you are still looking at your goals and wanting to continue to keep them at the forefront for yourself. Its very easy to get distracted by so many things of the day, and in our daily lives. So it sounds like you have truly picked a good 'word' to work towards.
Thats great that you are still working towards trying to find a job for yourself and trying to stay motivated with school. I know that self-study can be a challenge (especially when having "Focus" is a primary goal in that)... Not sure if perhaps there is someone through your course studies that you could reach out to for some help or tips to keep you going and motivated?
Wow, Content writer is quite the role to choose! Great job at aiming high 👍
Sorry to hear that you have to deal with seeing a cardiologist, but hopefully the Heart monitor will produce positive results for you. Please keep us updated on how things go for you with all of that. And thank you for sharing with us and checking in this week to let us know how things are continuing to go for you.
@PoliteOcean
Thanks for the kind words and suggestions.
I love writing content (especially regarding mental health) which is why I took the content academy program. I just don't know how to volunteer to do more writing.
I hope you have a great week.
@Bre4Me
You're so welcome Bre~
And thats pretty cool. Hope you figure out a way to do that for yourself as it seems like that would certainly be something you'd enjoy.
Thank you for the well wishes! And hope you enjoy your week ahead too :)
❄️How was your week? How are you feeling today?
Busy!! Had a great presentation at work and went through an important cultural ceremony this weekend with my family. I am very very tired tonight but still have a few things that need to get done this weekend. I feel that I didn't do enough this week, but I know I'm proud of the things I did engage in and that there were a lot of exhausting (even when positive) experiences I had.
⛄️This is our LAST Check-in for the Month of January~.....What was the Best part of the Month for you?.... How do you feel it went for you overall?
My boss told me she was proud of me for how well I presented! That and the ceremony were my January highlights.
❄️What were your "Highlights or Challenges" of this past week? How were you able to work through the challenges?!
I had a very challenging statistical analysis to run and I had such a fun time working through it and getting stuck and working through it some more! I know it was a fun challenge because of the wonderful instructor my workplace assigned me. She has been so kind and very very smart! I'm grateful for how many amazing women I work with.
⛄️What would "YOU" Like to talk about or share with us this week?! WE want to hear from YOU!
I feel overwhelmed lately, as if my weekly requirements for myself are unclear or endless or both. I am trying to find a way to get a better handle on that feeling in February.
@nordurnStar
Hey there Star~ It surely does sound like you had a pretty eventful week. And despite feeling tired, its good for you that overall all the experiences were positive ones for you. And especially having your boss letting you know how proud of you they were...(Now maybe you can rest up a bit from all your accomplishments of the past week)!
And despite how challenging your work is, its great for you that you are in a position where not only are you having fun, but that you feel you are appreciated by those around you. 👍
Hopefully for you the month ahead will produce the results that you are trying to get a handle on and work out for yourself. And that you won't feel so overwhelmed. Thats surely not the greatest feeling.
But we thank you for checking in and sharing your week with us today... And for simply letting us know how you've been doing. Keep us updated on how things are continuing to go~
@PoliteOcean Here's how the past week went. Monday and Wednesday I went for a walk. Tuesday I had EMDR therapy. It went okay but not great. We did a visualization which wasn't what I was expecting, Thursday I had an appointment with my psychiatrist. There were no changes to my medication so it was just a routine follow-up. Friday Deysi canceled on me but it's okay. Saturday I went for a 16 minute walk through my creepy neighborhood. I got back into my PT exercises but I forgot to do my homeopath remedy. I'm listening to worship music before I go to bed and hosting the sharing circle. For this upcoming week, I'm going for a walk on Monday, talk therapy on Wednesday, then later on Wednesday I'm going grocery shopping and have acupuncture. Friday I'm going for another walk.
@Regmo
Hey there Regmo~ Thats great that you were able to get out and start your week off with a walk 2 days in a row. Despite that your EMDR session exercise wasn't quite what you were expecting and wasn't as great as you were hoping for, its good that it still went "ok" for you overall. Sorry that Deysi canceled on you, but its good that it didn't affect you for that day. And how great for you that you were also able to end your week by taking another walk. Sounds like you are really doing a great job with that and keeping up with it well. And good for you for getting back into your PT exercises also. I think its therapeutic that you are still continuing with your worship music before bed, and continuing to host the sharing circle and helping others here at 7cups. And awesome for you on making plans for more walks and activity in the week ahead. Continue to keep up the great work that you are doing for yourself. Your doing a great job. And thank you for sharing again this week and checking in. And continuing to keep us up to date.
❄️How was your week? How are you feeling today? It's been a very bumpy week. . . we were a bit low on food, but was amble to have a pantry give us a bag, it stretched until I could go shopping. I have several female issues, and I was giving biopsies every sixth months until menopause or hysterectomy. I think I am choosing the second option, but I have never had kids, and my biological clock is really loud mixing with my depression and with winter, it's hard to get out and clear my head. I look on media, facebook, and other sites. . . all I see is parenting and having kids. To be honestly mentally I know I have so many health issues and cannot handle a kid, but my depression and media make me feel useless because I am not a parent. . . it's the greatest gift you can give. I cannot make the gift of life. I feel very useless for it. I'm also fighting writer's block. Can someone help me realize I am more than just an empty womb?
⛄️This is our LAST Check-in for the Month of January~.....What was the Best part of the Month for you?.... How do you feel it went for you overall? January was very long as I was very depressed through it. I hope to get to spring soon and I hope to get myself out to walk more. I also want nicer weather for doctor's appointments.
I like that Feburary has chocolate sales and it a short month.
❄️ What is something you feel you could use more support in , or how could others support you more? I color, write a journal and cook and bake (and blog it) these all help me.
⛄️ FOR FUN: If you could pick & take on ANY Role here at 7cups that you didn't have to apply for, what would it be and Why?! I'm not sure, I can barely handle myself, I am not sure how much I will be with others. I am slowly becoming more and more antisocial and watching the news does not help things.
❄️What were your "Highlights or Challenges" of this past week? How were you able to work through the challenges?! I colored alot and talked to my boyfriend.
⛄️What would "YOU" Like to talk about or share with us this week?! WE want to hear from YOU! Please send prayers and positive vibes. I need encouragement to go back to the doctor. Last month had a procedure that did not go well.
@Rebekahwriter13
Hey there Rebekah~ Sorry that you've had a "bumpy" week. Its great for you and your family that you were able to get to a food pantry and that they were able to help you all out with things. And that it was able to work out until you went shopping.
I'm sure its been challenging dealing with your female issues and to have to make such a choice like that on what to do. Pray on it and over it to make the best decision for yourself. I know that the weather hasn't been the greatest for walking in either. Especially if you don't enjoy the colder winter weather.
As far as parenting goes, just because a woman gives birth doesn't necessarily make her a "parent". Don't be too hard on yourself.... There are Sooo many ways to be a parent. You can Adopt, or Foster children who need and could use so much love. Whatever your decision, perhaps that is also something you can think of down the line.
I can understand you saying that January has been a long month. It's definitely been quite a month. And feeling like you are trapped inside doesn't help with the mental health side of things for those who suffer.
Its really great that you have so many things that help you and keep you busy doing other things.
Sorry to hear that you are finding yourself becoming more anti-social. Its understandable when we are going through things in our lives to feel that way. And you are right. Watching the news doesn't help with so much going on around us. I personally have stopped watching the news a long time ago. I figure if there is something specific I want or need to know more about, I will just look it up and research it on my own. Whatever it is, whether it be what the weather will be like in the day ahead, or something else more specific.
Despite your challenges, its good that you were able to continue doing things you enjoy, as well as talking with others you care about.
🙏 and positive Vibes for you, and for the encouragement that you need to get back to the doctor. Thank you for checking in this week and sharing with us. And letting us know how you've been continuing to do. Please keep us updated on things.
