1) How are you feeling today?

Like dukie. Nothing is working out the way I hoped. I would think I would have gotten used to it and expect it. Because it is definitely a life long pattern but nope

2) What is one thing going well for you today?
I almost left this part blank the only things I can think of is that I'm sober and I haven't actively harmed myself. So that's good I guess

3) What is one thing not going well for you today? No job so I'm not qualifying for a ankle monitor. No job also means bank account is dwindling.

4) If you were a wrestler, what would your entrance theme song be?
It would be just a loud deep droning sound. Going for the sense of impending doom. A quote from the movie Mulan I'm going to punch you so hard your ancestors will feel it.

Hello @Flornhope

I'm sorry you are not doing well. I'm sorry you don't have a job. Being unemployed is hard, but I'm sure you can survive this, just don't lose hope and keep searching for jobs. I'm proud of you for trying to look for something positive though! It can be hard, but looking for something positive in your life is very beneficial to your mental health. I'm also proud of you for being sober and not harming yourself <3 Those may seem small, but they add up :) I bet a droning sound would be really intimidating for your opponent :0

Thank you for checking-in, stay safe!

@SnailPurple Thank you. I know I'm not good at any positive thinking. But I'm trying. Any more I'm tired of pretending and tired of putting on a happy face to blend in. But I got to keep on keeping on. It's not like I can qiut anyway. So that only leaves one option to keep going

@Flornhope

I'm sorry you are having such a rough time right now. It is very good that you are sober and haven't hurt yourself (no guesswork needed). I know how hard it can be to stop the impulse to use substances or harm yourself, be proud that you managed to. I hope you have a nice weekend.

@SnailPurple

1) How are you feeling today?
I'm good. I have been able to, for the first time since I moved, to relax at my parents' place again, so that's good I guess? I'm good, and my diet is under my control, so I feel great. I have had a very good day, and felt really good. No depressive thoughts and no urges to self harm. All good.

2) What is one thing going well for you today?
I had a very good bikeride.

3) What is one thing not going well for you today?
I actually think everything is well today, so I can't mention anything going wrong.

4) If you were a wrestler, what would your entrance theme song be?
Hmm... maybe kung fu fighting? I don't know xD

Hello @dynamicOrange4965

I'm sorry you are feeling deflated. I know what it is like to feel like you can't do anything. I know it might seem like it, but I promise it isn't true. You can do good things. You do have worth. You can wonderful things, I know it :) Congrats on finishing an AP exam! What subject was it?

@SnailPurple

1) How are you feeling today? I'm feeling pretty good today (physically and mentally).

2) What is one thing going well for you today? I can't pick just one. It is sunny out, my hubby ordered doughnuts from our favourite local place, and I will likely be done work before 4 PM today.

3) What is one thing not going well for you today? My allergies are kicking up but I hate taking the pills for them, I will eventually I am sure if for no other reason than it makes it easier to breathe while I sleep.

4) If you were a wrestler, what would your entrance theme song be? Can I Play With Madness by Iron Maiden.

Have a great weekend everyone.
