Not great today.

Monty

Not feeling great today,  in fact I've not been feeling great for a while. I make plans to do things at the weekends but end up not doing anything. Constant over thinking, health isn't great and too much running through my mind.

  • I find distraction often helps - unless it's depression which needs medical attention [total inerta, constant negative ruminating et al]. Distraction can be any kind - sounds, watching TV/ video, reading, a short walk, a bit of gardening. If it's exhaustion, staying in bed but still looking after myself, ie food, warmth, my laser galaxy projector and not doing chores until I feel like getting out of bed. I find it hard to begin but once I've done one thing then I feel as if I've achieved something. Thus, I try to do one thing a day min, no matter how I feel. Yes, your diagnoses are gut wrenching, yet you CAN survive this.
