My day
So I woke up today and took my child to school, i then had a coffee and went back to bed, I then did some work on the computer because even when I have a day off I can't stop thinking about work, I was yet to eat anything for the day because I was too anxious, I managed to eat something now but it is 330 and I am lying in bed still yet to brush my teeth or comb my hair, I just don't have the energy, I feel really guilty and sad that I have not done more, I live on my own

Re: My day
Hi @Mn12
It's ok to have some days when you lack energy and can't really do much. Sometimes we need to take a break and have a day under the doona, or a day that isn't productive. We feel guilty sometimes, but it is important to go with what your mind and body needs. Please be kind to yourself especially today and the next few days.
It's ok to slow down.

Re: My day
Hi @Mn12 . Sounds like a bad day.
You might like to take a look at Daily goals, motivation and check in . It’s a thread where we encourage each other, when we can, to just do something small.
You are doing your best, that’s all we can ever do. Take care.

Re: My day
@Anastasia I’m avoiding my thread. It’s not something I can talk about. I so appreciate your thoughts and support. I’m hanging by a thread, a broken thread, but still hanging. I know you understand that too well.
Sending you lots of 💕💕💕💕

Re: My day
Since losing/leaving my job in May my days look a lot like this.... I will go for days not leaving my room (except to scrounge the empty fridge or cupboards for food)
I dread someone dropping by unexpectedly and seeing me like this.... but it is how it is... thankfully my grown up children give me a swift kick up the bum and get me moving when it goes on too long
