Just a check in to ask, are you ok? Like, really ok?
Don't forget to make some time today / this week for yourself 
Remember the answer doesn't always have to be yes. Don't be afraid to say no when you need to.

The rain can bring us down a bit but a lovely breakfast sounds like a good way to start the day |

Good morning
For anyone on need of a reminder, you are brilliant and you've got this.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, segment the task at hand into manageable pieces. Baby steps are better than not moving at all.
So, how are you, really?

Have just come out from 3 very dark and anxious months. Don’t know why they happened but quite happy it’s over- at least for now and until the next depressive episode.
So yes, very happy and enjoying the sunshine with a coffee. |

You remember when you were in school and you had the back on your back you’d had for 2 years running and the strap is holding on with a few strands of cotton … yes, that’s me everyday. |

Brilliant news even the darkest of times don't last forever
Also, love makes us do the craziest shit. I don't think you're alone in that. I've done my fair share of stupid things when it comes to heart break. Accept it for what it is and leave the guilt in the past. It's done, you can't change it so onwards and upwards |

Happy hump day
That one came around quick.
Remember the day you didn't want to face the nosey neighbour and their questions? But you stood there and answered them.
Or when you really did not want to go out? but you get yourself ready took a deep breath and headed out the door.
When you lost a significant person in your life and you didn't know how you'd get through it? But you did and you're still here. It's not been easy but you made it.
All of these wins whether big or small are indicators of your strength. You have it in abundance, even on the days where you don't feel like fighting. Remember all the wins you've had up to this point.
You are worthy, you matter, you've got this |

Monday marked seven years since my best friend passed away, this year felt different in someway, maybe because I've had a tough first start to the year myself.
I'm genuinely feeling in a good place at the moment, apart from stuff going on at work which is out of my control, life is pretty good, it helps I have energy now, I have a desire to see my home clean (also helps me to stop thinking) and helps I've finally come to terms with all my 'tisms and finally working out how my brain is working and being able to say "can we turn that off please and focus on one thing please, I'm feeling over stimulated".
Sorry op, I know you were just looking for "I'm good" lol |

Not at all, this is a safe space for honest answers. And the ones that inspire hope are always welcome.
I'm glad you are getting there with your 'tisms (love that by the way) and you are able to navigate ways for better focus etc. Very sorry to hear about you losing your friend |

I hope you’re all looking up and not at your feet.
If your feeling down and feel there’s not a lot you can do about it, try and find somebody who will just let you get it off your chest.
People may not be able to help, but it’s good to be heard. |

What I have learned is that, in these hard moments, I have to stop listening to myself and i have to start talking to myself.

Dan, You can handle this,
Dan, this is not a big deal,
Dan this will pass,
YOUR AMAZING!
Dan, this...too...shall...pass. |

"Bumping for anyone who needs a little lift today.
Feel like I'm pushing down a lot of anxiety lately...wish I could just sleep through the whole day lol "
I know this is easier said than done. But try it. It might change your life.
Write an anxiety list. Everything.
Then prioritise it.
Then go through it and cross out everything you cannot physically change.
Then see whats left |

Anxiety can be so gripping.
Although sleep may be off the agenda, can you put anything off for the day to allow yourself some time?

OK, yeah on the face of it. Part if my job is to he the excitable frantic fun one.
Really OK. Oh heavens no. But I've got too many people who rely on me, too much going on, and too many places to be. Just got to persevere and carry on. Don't know what else to do really |
