@CheeryMango Hi ♥️
- How do I feel about what's happened so far this week? Bad, not always, but mostly sad, anguished, guilty,… I did my best but I feel it wasn’t enough. I feel overwhelmed and that’s keeping me from doing things and feeling well. And, as a consequence, feeling guilty… and fearful regarding the outcome.
- How do I feel about what's happening the rest of the week? …
- I'm excited to focus on... my work, the bright side of things, hopefully.
- I will create space from avoiding intrusive thoughts, and overthinking.
- What am I avoiding? Taking that first step, to unblock the status quo I find myself in. Always procrastinating, making up excuses… and feeling even worse because of this.
- And what will I do about it? Have faith that tomorrow will be a better day, that I will find inner strength and power to overcome this stalemate of things.

I have Asp's syndrome and I can't cope with my dad's traits, they're so different to mine, which is not a problem in itself, but we can't seem to communicate anymore. Hurting so bad. Please help me.
This week has been absolutely amazing, and this comming week should be alright. I am excited to focus on volunteering in my community, I am advoiding individuals who like causing others pain. What am I going to do about it? Take 5 min 3x daily to focus on my breathing and clear the mind.

- How do I feel about what's happened so far this week? I am feeling burnt out and lonely from studying. I was happy I got to see my partner this weekend, but missing him a lot now.
- How do I feel about what's happening the rest of the week? I have finals this week, so I am feeling pretty burnt out and stressed. I have been studying a lot; I wish I had started earlier but I did my best.

- I will create space from studying by taking breaks to do breathing and stretching
- What am I avoiding? Arranging to talk to my dad. Making time for self-care and connection in ways I can this week. Avoiding sleep and exams because they are stressful.
- And what will I do about it? Message a friend about how I am feeling, email Dad tomorrow and try to mediate, address negative thoughts after
