Going out today

R

I'm going out today. So this morning and the last couple of days, I've been preparing for it. I find i need to prepare for everything that I do. I think it's a good idea to prepare though, preparing means I'm ready for almost everything.

So for today I have:

I have my face mask.

Water bottle - just filled it with water now. I've gone out with it empty too many times to mention Rolling eyes whoops...

I've got a brand new packet of tissues.

Snack biscuits in case I have any issues - type 1 Diabetes is not much fun Smirk 

Banana for healthy snack.

My journal.

Camera.

Extra clothes because you never know LOL.

Shopping bags.

Hair brush.

And a stress ball. I'll need it LOL.

And last of all my backpack to put all of the above in. Now my family say this is over the top... but let's be honest how can it be?! You can never be too prepared and I'm prepared for quite a lot here. 

Just in case...

  • I hope you enjoyed your day out and it wasn't too anxiety inducing for you. 

    I find going out to be very stressful, especially if it's too a busy place, like the shops. I took my great aunt out after Christmas for a meal and it was nice but made me very anxious and triggered my mental health too.

    When I go out I like to go for walks. Being in the fresh air in the fields around my house is my favourite thing when I'm out.

    Like you, I'll always go prepared with a little survival kit lol in my bag. If it's a new place I'll use Google Maps first to check out the area. 

    Generally I'm quite the hoarder. I always make sure I'm prepared with spare clothes, spare batteries, spare cups, spare brushes, spare phone charger...

    Not being prepared makes me really edgy and stressed.

    Being prepared is a good thing IMHO. Star
