What have you achieved recently??

What have you achieved lately? List whatever you like, big or small…

I haven’t achieved much sadly. I was on a bit of a downer these last few months as Snowflake, my cat, died suddenly. As she was literally my only friend losing her has hit harder than I imagined it would.

Anyway, one thing I’ve achieved is that every Saturday I’ve been going in to town and having a hot chocolate in the coffee shop. This is huge for me. I always feel anxious and part of me says ‘Are you nuts!?’ but I make myself do it and generally I feel OK when in there and enjoy it.
The coffee shop has been doing an Autistic Morning every Saturday, like our local Morrisons where they dim the lights and don’t play any music so autistic customers don’t get overwhelmed. If they hadn’t done this I wouldn’t have stopped for a hot chocolate the first time.

Definitely a big achievement for me!

  • Hello, really nice to see you back, well done for going to the coffee shop, big step!

    There are still some of the old members about, many I think are waiting to sign in on their old accounts. 
    I did something out of my comfort zone and made a phone call, I know it’s not a big thing but it’s big for me. Grinning

    Hello Roy, so lovely to see you again. And big congrats on making a phone call! Not an easy thing to do so well done that's an amazing achievement. Slight smile

    I'm sorry so many people have been struggling. I hope they'll be able to access their accounts soon and this won't put them off from returning.
