Checkin Questions

I have not completely given up
2. what are your goals for this week/day/month
I should try to work through my work backlog
3. what topics would you like to see me cover for Checkins any ideas
?
4. how are you all feeling today
pretty awful.
@HappyDucky8
yayy you've got this glad you recognize this in yourself that you've not given up that's amazing
a great goal to stay focused on something I would definitely take time working through maybe form some todo lists quick tasks that you can get done fast tasks that may be more important next then long tasks near the end
we sometimes do topical check-ins self-care coping methods etc just a few ideas but done deeper ones too if you see NoneTheWisers topics those too
sorry to hear your feeling awful would you like to talk more about it
@CaringBrit
i don't think anyone needs to hear my woes...
@HappyDucky8 you will not be judged here its a safe space if you feel you wish to share them you can if your ready too of course we are here for you
@HappyDucky8 Greetings happy duck. I am a victim of childhood trauma as well. I was only able to process feelings of guilt and shame after sharing my story with others who could identify. somehow I always thought it was my fault. I've had a lot of anger towards myself and those who abused me. I had to grieve for a lost childhood. now I continue to release the idea that somehow I was responsible. it was never my fault. through this realization let go move on. I've had to do this many times because I have flashbacks and fall into the same thinking. after a good cry and reminding myself that I was not responsible I now feel liberated.
@aroundtheworld77
my trauma is ongoing and will not end anytime soon
1. I'm proud of my gumption!
2. I'd like to accomplish a big thing today!
@betterchoices
oh whats a gumption may i ask
yayy what would you like to accomplish today
there was other questions but thats okay i hope your feeling well
@CaringBrit Gumption is one's ability to maintain a positive and productive attitude! The book definition is "shrewd or spirited initiative and resourcefulness"-- so like, in the face of a challenge, keeping it together and pushing through with spirit!
I forgot, honestly. Haha.

Checkin Questions
1. one thing or multi your very proud off
I'm proud of how I've handled some really difficult situations this week and proud of how I've managed to keep a pretty stable mental state despite everything going on at home right now.
2. what are your goals for this week/day/month
I need to start working out again this week and overall this month I need to start prioritizing self-care and stop working myself so hard :(
3. what topics would you like to see me cover for Checkins any ideas
Ooo theme based check-ins would be cool like centered around certain topics like coping or talking about our problems with others and maybe centered around perseverance and resiliency? :o :o
4. how are you all feeling today
I'm feeling okay. Very tired and exhausted but somehow motivated to keep going? XD
@TheAtticusFinch
great job Atticus of handling the difficult situations this week and being able to keep a mental state
yes self care is super important why not try at a small amount each day even if like 20-30 mins then build it up a bit sometimes self care can be hard to prioritize so starting small may help in introducing it into your day what do you think
Wiser has covered some of those already but thanks for the ideas i always do coping my last one was package boxes a few weeks back or so i could re do that sometime as it had very little reply
glad to hear your okay aww no on being tired and exhausted what about getting some rest to re energize
(Beautiful gif, it made mre happy😶...)
1. one thing or multi your very proud off
I have my integrity
2. what are your goals for this week/day/month
It is hard to have goals when you know you can not achieve them...
3. what topics would you like to see me cover for Checkins any ideas
Anything that lightens up the mood. Trauma is hard enough, good things bring smiles😊
4. how are you all feeling today
I feel better because I saw your gif and it made me smile😶
@GreyMirror
aww thankyou glad you liked my choice of imagery this checkin i did
glad you have your integrity
aww what about ones that can be achieved even if small but i understand what were they the ones you feel you cannot achieve
ok will think of some fun topics then
aww that made me smile knowing that i really try to pay attention to detail and think of the little things like the gif
@CaringBrit
I admire you and look up to you since I know my limits and acknowledge your ackomplishments.
I cannot hold responsibilities or schedules or get things done like you can do. You are doing a great contribution with your dedicated effort and time and admire you for having the courage to do the DJ thread.
So for me you are an idol since I can never be like you...inspiring...
@GreyMirror aww thanks GreyMirror for the kind words
