**AND ANY & ALL "NEWBIES" THAT WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH US
🌷 This past week went well... My family's Birthday parties went really well, and we all had a great time to start off last weekend... My Sleep went pretty good, got in lots of water, Meal-planning went better to start each day off, and I got back in to taking my vitamins and I haven't felt as tired or a lack of energy as I previously had.
🍀 The weather has continued to be really nice and mild, (although its about to turn chillier again than it has been for the next week).... But I'm continuing with Group Fitness classes and getting in lots of activity and working out. We ordered a Bike that's close to a Peloton, and it just got delivered yesterday (we ordered a different one a few weeks ago, but it didn't work well)... so we are trying a different one now. Looking forwards to seeing how that goes. I'm also getting into the Spring-mood, and continuing to make little changes around our home with colors, flowers, & décor changes for a Mood booster!
🌺 This weekend will be spent taking care of various things around the house that need done. And continue working on getting ready for Spring (and of Course the Time change)! Which I'm totally looking forwards to. I'm ready for longer days and more sunshine and daylight!
@PoliteOcean
Thanks for consistently posting these checkins and for your thoughtful and thorough replies to comments.
I've been doing a bit of redecorating and spring cleaning myself!
@PoliteOcean
Hi, Ocean,
Hey How are you doing this week? I'm doing better...not perfect, but better.
🍀What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?! I slept a lot. I had a lot of very uncomfortable phone calls to make and I let myself sleep around the calls.
🌺 What would "YOU" Like to talk about, add or share with us this week?! ....WE want to hear from YOU!~
@purpleTree4652
Hey there Tree~ So great for you that you are doing better! (Progress NOT Perfection Right?!)
How awesome for you that you got accepted to another Grad School that you applied to. Sounds like that is quite a worry off of your shoulders as I know that you were concerned about being accepted. Now your dreams are coming true for you.
I think that is really amazing that you were able to fight-off the negative thoughts and emotions that could've possibly lead to any downward spirals for you. I say whatever you are doing there to help yourself and it seems to be working, to continue to keep up the great work there and keep moving forwards with those things!
🌷 Hey How are you doing this week?
Big question!
🍀What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?
I think like the post before me I was able to work through my challenges by catching myself and am not sure how to explain it; I just took control rather than being controlled as they said. Then with that control I was able to utilize healthier harm reduction practices.
🌺 What would "YOU" Like to talk about, add or share with us this week?! ....WE want to hear from YOU!~
I would like to say that we must be willing to own our failures and be willing to lead and fail publicly. Also, nice people take drugs.
@Dallady
Hey there Dalla~ Sounds like your week was a decent one for you?! Thats great for you that you learned to "release anxiety" around any imperfections (which can be a challenge for some of us to do). And great job on taking the 'small steps' that enabled you to do these things!
Thats awesome that you are feeling more energized as "Winter" is starting to make its way on out! (I wish I could say the same!) I need some of that energy. But that is great for you. And great job on being able to "attack" your chores and tasks (and with renewed vigour)!.... I surely need a little bit of whatever it is that has you feeling so great! It must be that pending Spring Arrival and perhaps a sense of refreshing renewal!.. Keep up the great work that you are doing there!
🌷 Hey How are you doing this week? I've been fighting a head cold….it's not COVID, no fever.
I'm just dealing with strictly sinus issues. I used to be prone to strep throat..
My current therapist still has NOT messaged me back, grrrr. She wasn't really helping me anyway. We both got thrown to each other when my prior therapist had a death in the family. (Both were what call quickie therapist, they had 30 minute sessions and that is okay for a business person who needs direction in their lunch break. But I need a therapist who I can see the whole hour and work through my actually problems. I've been diagnosed with depression, social anxiety, and PTSD….they have gotten worst not better..I will not take a pill until they take blood work and show me scientifically/medically that I need it. I had bad pervious experiences.)
🍀 How was your First week of MARCH?!.... What's the Most Positive thing that happened for you this week? I found out that CampNaNoWriMo is next month. It's about writing projects and goals.. .it helps me to get creatively projective..I'm working on memoir and therapy projects.
🌺 What are some small steps that you made or took for yourself that made this past week a "Healthier" one for you? (Was it Physical, Mental, Emotional) ? In what way did it help you?
I slept more at night, I took more breaks and I had two days of healing in which I did the bare minimum. I felt lazy, but I wasn't….I needed to heal this cold so I can go back to my life.
🌷 JUST FOR FUN: This week we "SPRING AHEAD" And turn our Clocks Ahead "One Hour"... How many of you are Looking forwards to this change and why or why not?!
I am looking forward to more sunlight and warmer weather so I can get on a walking schedule.
🍀What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?!
Highlight: I stay within budget on my grocery list and shopping.
Challenge: fighting a cold. I'm still trying to heal.
🌺 What would "YOU" Like to talk about, add or share with us this week?! ....WE want to hear from YOU!
Please send positive vibes and prayers for me..I need to know if my social anxiety needs more medical attention or if a future therapist can help me get a job. I don't work well with a lot of people.
@Rebekahwriter13
Hey there Rebekah, thats too bad that you aren't feeling so good hopefully you will continue to improve and feel better soon!
So sorry to hear for you that your therapist hasn't reached out to you yet. I can certainly understand having a provider who you feel isn't really helping you in the first place. That in itself can surely be difficult, and be a challenge. I can surely understand you wanting a therapist that you feel comfortable with and can connect with. And its important to have one that understands you and where you are coming from. And also how to help you. I can also understand that you don't want to take medications. (I myself am not big on taking any type of meds unless as you stated, are specifically needed). So I can understand those feelings. Again, there are tests to, that can help determine the best mental health meds that would work for you and your body, AND Body chemistry. A psychiatrist would just have to order the test, and then discuss it with you. And you two together could decide which one would be best to take if you would need it. But you never know, it could possibly help with the way you've been feeling. I know some who its made a world of difference in. And who are now back to work, and living life normally like before... almost as if they never had an issue. And who continue to fight through any negative feelings in a more positive manner. But only you can decide what is best for you.
Thats great for you that you are still continuing to work on your writing. And that you are setting some small goals for yourself and looking forwards to things. And that it helps you as well all in one!
Its also great that you were able to sleep more at night, and take more breaks for yourself, and that you continued to take the time you needed to heal. Theres no need for anyone to feel "lazy" when they are trying to take care of themselves. And thats a good thing!
Its good for you that you are looking forwards to the time change to be able to get out in the sunlight, and to take more walks. Thats a great thing. And its definitely something to look forwards to as well as sunshine can surely help more in fighting Depression and help us to feel better.
Despite the challenges of your week, its awesome that you were able to stay within your budget (which can be extremely hard to do when it comes to grocery lists and shopping)! Great job on that. And continue to keep up the good work there! And thank you for checking in again this week. Its great to see you back. We are here to support you. Please continue to keep us updated on how things are going for you. And continued positive vibes sent your way.
@PoliteOcean
I keep trying to post but it shows me an error code. :(
LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE SUNSHINE <3
@charmingSky5972
Hey there Sky~ Me too! I LOVE Sunshin-y Days!
Thanks for posting and glad that you finally got it to go through. (Sometimes when that happens, you just have to "refresh" and then post again). :)
