Self-Harm Recovery Daily Check In: Sunday March 17th, 2019
Hey amazing community!
What are the highs and lows of your day today?
Have you ever been overwhelmed? What helped you get through it?
Is there anything else you would like to share?
Recovery is overwhelming and challenging but I am proud you are going through this journey. Even the steps you are taking in being here in this community today are amazing. You are awesome and Im glad you are working through challenges. If you feel overwhelmed by the recovery journey, just breathe, its okay. If you relapse then that is okay, it is a part of recovery for some people it doesnt mean you have failed it just means you have tried really hard and a setback became apparent and that you now have another opportunity to work forwards in your journey! Keep with this, I believe in you.

@bear228 hey bear 
What are the highs and lows of your day today?
Lows are definitely that i had no keys last night and no phone with me and walked around in the cold for a long time hoping a friend would find me xD
Highs are that my boyfriend had the feeling something was wrong and searched for me, found me, and drove me to a friends house! Quite a chaotic night xD
Have you ever been overwhelmed? What helped you get through it?
Definitely. Whenever i feel overwhelmed, i try to stay calm & mindful.
@AveryLove
Aw having no keys and no phone sucks especially when being out in the cold it's so nice that your boyfriend was able to help you just by sensing something was wrong, that is so nice to hear. Staying calm and mindful is for sure helpful in situations where we feel overwhelmed. Thank you for sharing this!! 
My lows weren't so bad today. (As I participated in the Depression support group). So far my day has been pretty good. It can get get a bit overwhelming when I'm in crowds as I have social anxiety,I can't stand crowds of people.
@bear228 Hey How are you?
The high was I got 5 hours of sleep, finally! The low was I got 5 hours of sleep. Made some corned beef and cabbage in honor of St Paddy's.
Over whelmed... at times definitely. Get a change of scenery and go for a walk. Or sometimes you just have to watch some scooby doo on the couch with some goofy dogs.
Found a new band to listen to. The Score. Very awesome.
It was nice to see you! Take care
