Self-Harm Recovery Daily Check-In: Monday, January 25th, 2021
Heya amazing people! Happy Monday, it’s already the last week of January!
We tend to give our own selves judgments that are often harder than they should, but there’s actually a lot more that we can give to ourselves!
1) How are you feeling today?
2) What is the highlight and downside of your day/week? (if any!)
3) What are you often giving yourself? And what should you give yourself more of?
Feel free to share anything else in your mind! I’ll be looking forward hearing from you all!
Take good care of your amazing selves, stay safe <3

@LinearWaves
How are you feeling ?
Im feeling ok i guess
What are the highlights or the lowlights if any?
My family got a dog so its nice but also quite stresfull
@persistentTortoise5298
Hey there ! It’s nice to hear you’re feeling ok ! It must be a change to have this dog join your family, was it something you wanted too? I hope the stress can reduce over time!
Thanks for checking in, take care!
@LinearWaves
1) How are you feeling today? Stresed and on edge but thats normal
2) What is the highlight and downside of your day/week? (if any!) there really hasnt been anything good but a downside is me and my parents have been arguing
3) What are you often giving yourself? And what should you give yourself more of? i should give myself more positive thoughts about my self
@unassumingSpruce9514
Hey there ! I’m sorry to hear you’re feeling stressed and on edge, you say it’s normal though, is it because it’s always the case ? or maybe due to arguing with your parents? I hope the situation with them gets better, arguing is never fun…
Positive thoughts about ourselves are definitely important to give! Are there some examples of those thoughts that you’d like to share?
Thanks for checking in, take care!
1. I’m feeling ok, just stressed from a bunch of different factors but it’ll sort itself out. 2. Moving was both highlight and downside of my week 3.I’m not giving myself enough credit and I need to give more to myself of that. Thanks for the check in!! :)
@Rainbowphrog
Hey there Rainbow ! It’s good to hear you’re feeling ok and that you know that despite the stress coming from different factors, it’ll sort itself out !
You mean moving as in moving out/in?
It’s indeed super important to give ourselves the credit we deserve! It’s not fair to only get the judgments and not the credit! Are there some things currently that you’d like to give yourself credit for?
Thanks for checking in, take care!
We’re moving in and out at the same time. We’re finishing moving the final stuff in my old house and almost fully moved into our rental house now. I need to give more credit for my work and my grades in school since I’ve been hard on myself for not doing as good as I usually do. Have a great day!! :3
Feeling) Today I've been really Moody. Stressing about tomorrow.
I feel tomorrow will be okay but having conversations in my head telling me nauh things won't be good.
Highlight/downside of this week)
- one highlight is on Wednesday I will be buying MORE bottles so I can prepare my weekly liquid diet just once a week instead of twice a week
- downside tomorrow I have an appointment. REALLY not looking forwards to it.
Give myself more of)
I NEED TO GIVE MYSELF MORE OF A SET TIME TO REST AND SLEEP!!!
@ClassicAnonymous17
Hey there ! I hope today went okay despite the stress you were having about this appointment ! It’s really easy to get lost in these conversations in our heads, although they tend to catastrophize the situation…
How is this liquid diet working for you so far? I’m pretty curious about them, it feels like I’d need much more food to be satisfied if it was only liquid!
Giving yourself a set time to rest/sleep sounds important, I hope you can manage that!
Thanks for checking in, take care!
@LinearWaves
This morning I woke up at 7: 15.
I took a shower got dressed did my makeup I got ready to go to the appointment literally as I was putting on my socks (8:10am) the doctor's office called me and told me they had to reschedule my appointment.
I was beyond super annoyed because where we live you have to give a 72-hour notice to reschedule an appointment if you do not give a 72 hour notice you have a fine of $150 to pay.
I had missed the phone call it went to voicemail and the lady told me they had to reschedule but I couldn't call them for another 20 minutes due to the automatic system on the phone. when I called and asked to reschedule for an appointment she told me she couldn't fit me in for almost 20 days 😓
So I finally just told her I said fit me in with ANY doctor in February either the (9/16/23) finally she did find a doctor with an opening for the 16th I'm just really super annoyed I have to wait so long. ___ in December I started having problems when I had called the office they told me I still had a medical bill that wasn't paid so I couldn't even speak about making an appointment that's why I was so annoyed this morning whenever it was very last minute the appointment got canceled!!! Now pushed back even further
@LinearWaves
1) How are you feeling today?
Not too bad, thanks for asking. I wasn't as productive as I could be, but I was as productive as I needed to be, and I think that's what counts.
2) What is the highlight and downside of your day/week? (if any!)
The highlight is that I've been keeping in touch much more frequently with one of my awesome support group members. The downside is that I'm still having nightmares when I sleep, so I don't really get true rest.
3) What are you often giving yourself? And what should you give yourself more of?
I'm often giving myself worst-case scenarios and self-criticism to try protecting myself against the future. I suppose I should give myself more of a break and reminders that no matter what happens, I am capable of figuring it out.
Thank you for the check-in. 
@TheAutumnWitch
Hey there ! It’s nice to hear you’re feeling not too bad, that’s always good to take ! Productivity can be tough, it’s hard to be at 100%... you’re very right on the fact that as long as you were productive enough, that’s what matters the most!
It’s a great thing that you’ve been keeping in touch more frequently with this support group member! As for nightmares, I’m sorry to hear you’re experiencing them and that they’re keeping you from true rest… Do you think talking about those nightmares could be helpful (or are you already doing that?)?
I like this reminder! It’s tough to fully avoid thinking about worst-case scenarios and self-criticism so it’s good to at least have a reminder to keep in mind that okay, there are these scenarios, BUT you’ve got this!
Thanks for checking in, take care!
@LinearWaves
I'm still not feeling very productive today, haha. Oh, well...I'll do what I need to do, and then sit back and resume my "planning phase" on future objectives to complete.
I'm glad about the KIT as well. Thank you. I sort of have been talking about the nightmares, but I don't think I've fully gotten them out of my system just yet.
We got this together! :)
Thank you for replying to me! Stay safe!
1) okay I guess but stressed 2) my parents and grandparents fight 3) not really. I think I should be more confident
@lokai21sakurai
Hey there! It’s nice to hear you’re feeling okay although stressed… Is there something specific stressing you? Is it connected to the fight?
Confidence is a nice one! Do you have some ideas on how you could build more confidence?
Thanks for checking in, take care!
Exams are near and my mind is filled with thoughts like I should not disappoint my parents. I am able concentrate because I have calm my parents after the fight. Its chaotic here
