Hya SF, hope your are feeling better soon.

BMF is right. I am speaking as someone who has a "gift" for putting far too much pressure on herself (resulting in years of depression and many, many therapist sessions, not to mention Pr***c! ).

I am slowly getting better at "catching myself on", standing back and saying to myself...does it really matter, do things have to be done this way and in this time-frame?? Very often there are lots of "no" answers there.

In fact, "No" can be a very good word...learning to say it to yourself and to others can take a lot of pressure off yourself...honest! It is such a hard thing to do though, as taking on too much (and saying "yes" all the time) is so ingrained in me (and you too SF?)

Seriously, take time out and think out of the box a bit...if everything has to be done, do you have to do it all?? Make a plan, but a less demanding one for yourself...better to get there in one piece, rather than in millions of pieces.

Oooh 'eck, listen to me...my therapist would be so proud!! All I have to do is keep following what I preach!! Now here endeth the lesson.:rotfl:

Take care, night, night xxx
