    Feeling really anxious and my depression is getting worse... I have to go out to my session today.

    It does help to see people I know. Next week I have a session I am leading and that is really out of my comfort zone but I will get help if it gets too overwhelming. I think my mental health will worsen if I am staying at home. But it is bad today. I am so scared about the future.

    A while ago, I listened to a guided meditation by Martha Beck about anxiety and it was very gentle. I especially like what she said about us being human, not broken. And that you get to feel what you feel.

    Admittedly, it doesn't always feel like that to me in the current world we live in. But hey, life is messy and so am I. So yeah, I get to feel what I feel, right?

    Morning All,

    didn’t wake until half nine, had a quick scrub and got dressed before heading out to get the Flu and Covid Boosters. Back home now with the door shut and back in pjs. Setting myself up for watching the next instalment of Wicked tomorrow, just pushing myself a bit the last week to do more things and go out here and there.

    Sorry your anxiety is bad at the minute @Schildpad. I've been in the same place - you know it'll be good to get out but when it's heightened, it can feel terrifying. I hope you start to feel a bit better. Please look after yourself 💛

    Hi @Zippy1983 sounds like a productive morning! What's wicked? Is it similar to the show Ariana Grande's in or something completely different?

    For the first time since Monday I managed to sit outside in the garden for fifteen minutes and I felt quite at ease. Despite the cold (with me all bundled up) it was nice that it was rather quiet, hardly any wind, and with the lovely chattering of some sparrows nearby.

    I am rather chuffed with that. Writing it down here, I am hoping to be reminded of it next time I am at a loss or experiencing despair. You never what could be right around the corner, methinks.

    It is getting hard to leave home and deal with people.. I am really struggling lately but I did... Rush hour was a problem but managed to sit down the other half of the journey... Now at home... I hope I will feel ok tomorrow.

    With the risk of sounding weird, will you believe I was thinking of you and Gus while I sat outside this afternoon?

    Are you defrosted by now :)

    I am struggling today, really feeling negative about myself, feeling ashamed and disgusted as well.


    I’ve yet again spent three days eating take away’s to the point where they make me sick.

    I’ve spent a few hours going through all of my finances with a fine tooth comb. I’ve set everything up as direct debits, standing orders and also sent out feelers to debt agencies to start making payments each month, then also set aside funds to go into a separate bank account to fund work that needs doing on my flat.

    Morning All,

    Bit of a late night watching Wicked and playing on the PS5. Only had 6 hours kip. Had a scrub and got dressed, heading into town to watch Wicked For Good.
