Drawing Flies Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Last year, in May, I bought a notebook to write positive affirmations on to help me keep a positive mindset. I neglected it for over 6 month and finally I picked up where I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to help, but then my depression and other issues worsened and I lost motivation in general. I wouldn't even read it. Yesterday I forced myself to open it, and now I'm writing again. It's like having "past you" motivating and pushing you forward. I use it as a positivity journal/creative outlet. I only write positive things and draw, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been years. i got tired of repeating the same depressive themes so I stopped writing unless I had something genuinely good to say. It did provide some relief to get my thoughts out of my mind. I thought of taking up drawing as an expressive art form but for now it's one step at a time so I won't overwhelm myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizardwarrior315 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I went in to work even though I wasn't scheduled today. Unfortuantely that seems to be happening more often lately due to severe labor shortages (as in entire shifts going unmanned for consecutive days - it's that bad) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouisRiel Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Cleaned out and organized most of my desk area and storage towers, showered, did one load of laundry, and went to a gas station for change to do another load later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkintheDark Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Called to refill my scripts...only took me a friggin' week to do it. Picking them up next week will be another dam story. I MAY take a shower/shave and run a load of laundry, since that's how that routine usually goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouisRiel Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Bought groceries before I completely ran out for once and continued a 'drawing' I have been working on for awhile that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha1 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Went to an audition. I was meh at best but i did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha1 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 (edited) Spent about 5 hours at 3 different stores to price out and compare all of the items for my backcountry menus. Took pics of all products and their labels so i could also see the macronutrient content. Price is only part of my choices. Needed to take my mind off of waiting for results of the auditions. Gotta figure out how to keep busy tomorrow. I can spreadsheet all this crap i guess. Get really picky and obsessive about cleaning...?

Wild Orchid Eileen Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 My depression makes everything difficult and worse than it should be. I’m having annoying seasonal allergies right now and my throat is itching a lot. I feel like if I was healthier I would push through life better than I currently am, super frustrated with my itchy throat. Nonetheless, I went to a job interview today. And now I’m stressed thinking about the job hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tracyistrying Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I went to the vet and picked up cat food. Called to set up an appointment at a counseling center - anxiety mostly, depression maybe just a little, and mental health in general. It was sunny here for the first time in months so I opened up the sun roof while driving around. Opened the screen on my sliding glass door to get some fresh air. It's been dreary and cold for a long time. Kinda nice to have a warm, windy, somewhat sunny, spring day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkintheDark Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 (edited) May sound ridiculous to some, but finally added Lyft to my phone. Haven't needed it, but with my car on its last legs and uncertainty over whether my new purchase will work out this week - pending mechanical inspection - decided it might be a good idea. Doh! Otherwise a day of recuperation after a physically challenging day yesterday. One day I didn't feel badly about doing nothing.
