I really feel awful. :cry: I guess I’m at least staying sober because I’m in no shape to leave the house. My depression hasn’t been this bad in a long time. It’s not the worst it’s ever been, because I’m not suicidal. But I’m just one level above that. I can’t even always manage the basics like showering. I don’t really have anyone here to support me. I really need a hug.

Sending hugs :hugs: Depression and SAD (both weather-wise and holiday triggered) has been rearing its ugly head in my world lately. Staying sober is the absolute most important thing you can do to start to feel better, from my experience. It’s doesn’t mean we won’t have those feelings that we are prone to, but it helps to keep from sinking lower. Be kind to yourself, as much as you can.

I live on a busy main road thats constantly has queing cars of traffic.
On my way home from swimming this evening at around 8pm i saw this huge canadian goose dodging traffic and not even close to any water.
So the past 4 hours i have spent trying to get help from the correct organisation that can help him. I fist first notice him and thought on my gosh this isnt going to end well. But all is well he has been rescued and is doing well.
I had soent 4 hours keeping him in the large car park across the road and watching him explore, all with my battery dying and the freezing cold weather and he made my heart so warm.
I’m so glad today i was able to help him, he was so well behaved too.





Cant keep my eyes open

Day 57. Feeling super excited for my 60 day milestone. Going to really start focusing on sleep and cutting back on caffeine next week. I tried a few weeks ago and it just felt like too much at once. One thing at a time :heart: have a good night. Everyone. Thanks for staying sober with me today.

tonight will be day 280 of no self harm

still not feeling any COVID symptoms aside from being really dizzy randomly. i don’t think it’s good related because my lack of food dizzy spells are only a few seconds while these are minutes long.

not really sure why but I’m super emotional today and just feel borderline breakdown. i think part of it is probably the fact that I’ve been off work for 6 days (I took Thursday and Friday off to visit my grandpa, I had the weekend off, and now I have this entire week and weekend off because COVID) and I haven’t had this much time to just feel and think in like 6 months. i feel so unproductive and I’m really paranoid I’m going to lose my job over this (even though I know I won’t but this feels like the one good thing I have right now). it doesn’t help that I’m trapped in the house with my toxic family.
