Feeling a little downhearted this evening, I know it’s tiredness because I still have a major sleep deficit. Time to consider my

  1. Great coaching session
  2. Really enjoying listening to The List
  3. Tom’s rearranged the patio plants and the garden looks amazing. He’s worked so hard on it during his time off. My superstar

Coaching was SO good! I feel like she really gets me, and she helped me clarify some major things. She’s given me some homework to do about coping with my mood fluctuations, a journaling task that I think will be really helpful for weathering the storms

@Sharonbw I think so!

@musingoddity I think coaching is better for me than therapy right now, I need to be forward focussed and I’ve done plenty of looking at my past

Well, having been exercise-shamed by my psychiatrist this morning, I just went for a Stupid Walk for my Stupid Mental Health. 6 minutes. In the biting cold. and ok, it wasn’t much, or far, but you better believe it was fast! “Feel’s like” is 7.9, and we’ve had the heater on all day today. (And the Evil Neighbour is prone to stalking behaviour - I notice they have just gone out, so I was lucky to dash in and out before they got me.)

@caity Well done! I know how hard it can be when mental health isn’t great

@purplepadma@beige.party avatar

@caity No indeed. I went for a short run/walk this morning and actually really enjoyed it, as I usually do, but I hadn’t been able to make myself do it for weeks. Forced it today, new week, new month, take better care of myself, etc etc

Well, I’m still awake, been up since 2am… I’ve tried a sleep story, a sleep meditation, journaling, reading, getting up for a bit, a bath… nope. Gave up at 5am and got up for a morning meditation, when it gets to 6am I’ll go for my first run in weeks. Strange start to the week!

@MJCarty Hi Michael! I’m still away from my studies as unwell, and have quite a few admin things to do this week including two doctors appointments. But I’m looking forward to Wednesday, when if my friend is up to it, Tom and I will take him on a trip to a valley of reservoirs :)

@MJCarty Here! https://elanvalley.org.uk/explore/the-dams/

@MJCarty It all depends on our friend, he’s been a bit down lately and cancelled our planned drinks on Friday. I think it would do him no end of good to get out in the fresh air by the water

@Wen @MJCarty @patrickhadfield oh idk!

Argh, going through another phase where I can’t get to sleep, this time I got to sleep fine but less than four hours later I’m wide awake. I’m going to get up and do something so I don’t lie here worrying about stuff #insomnia

@madunclegenghis Ah thanks Uncle, I’m still awake but tried to stay offline and do things that are supposed to be more helpful… although none of them helped! 😂

@kyleha It’s true, in the Middle Ages people used to sleep in two phases
