What Have You Accomplished Lately?

I made it out to pick up my son from school. I also finally IM'd a friend of mine that I was hurt by and explained why I was hurt.

I worked some things out for myself.

My family were away for the weekend. Being on my own, in the past few years has always been tough, too much time to dwell on previous events, and total freedom to react to negative thoughts. It was during such a time I took an overdose.

So this weekend I decided to really try and not follow the white rabbit down the hole. On both days I got up early and went for long walks along the coast path. Saturday was a wild day, gales, sea foam and spray. I even got blown over a couple of times! By the time I got home I felt like an old sea dog. It was invigorating and fun.

Sunday was a much calmer, sunny day. I walked around Lizard point, the most southerly point on the UK. Blue skies and blue sea, it was very pretty. I wanted to stop off at a hotel half way round for a coffee. When I got to the entrance I stalled, anxious because there seem to be a lot of people having lunch inside, and crowds make me anxious. I almost walked away, but forced myself inside and had a coffee before continuing the walk. It was ok, and I didn't feel freakishly self conscious.

Five hours after I started I got back to my car. I had moments of feeling lifted during the walk, and I consciously fought hard when my mind wanted to dwell on past events and drag up negative thoughts. It was a positive weekend for me.

Thanks - mit

@Mit Your weekend really sounds good. I'm glad that you could make such nice experiences. You can be proud of you.

I went to lunch with a friend. Usually, I eat my lunch in my office - alone. It's not easy to me to go outside and eat in public.

 

[Mit]

Thank you @Anrish. You should be proud too, well done to you.

Today I went for 3x 20 minute walks. I've really neglected my health over the past year. Not anymore!
