No I have really tried Juno.
I tried targets such as washing the dishes just to start me off. After just a couple of days I lost the motivation again.

I really don't know what to do, or where to go from here.

I didnt see this as i was typing my reply to you. What would motivate you, there must be an incentive your fiance/family can think of, a treat perhaps.

hi dawnylou, i cant rely on myself at all and sometimes dont know whats wrong with me or why im so depressed angry or feel so hateful. i feel most of my life has been hard with very few happy moments. it has always been a struggle, i have been in bed all day today and cant face going doenstairs to my kids who dont listen to me and their dad who obviously has set them this example. i only thank god for my sister in law and my brother whom i have seen every dayfor the past fortnight but i think they will be gettiong sick of me too. every night i just hope tomorow will be better. the prob is you think people will see you as selfish and lazy but i think like me you are prob the opposite and the guilt of being ill is making you worse. people do understand you though and its not your fault, a new year is just around the corner. nothing lasts for very long. tomorow will be different.

ps - is there another safe place you can go to? just so that you are up washed and out of the house for a couple hours. somewhere you can talk and relax and have a cuppa . it the only thing for me sometimes

but you're still going from nothing to "I must wash the dishes every day, and if I don't I'm a bad person". And then you make yourself feel worse and are even less motivated etc.

How about trying to do it 3 times a week, on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays? That's half (everyone has sundays off), and if you miss one day you can do it another when you feel better.

:hello: Everyone,


*hugs* to Johnroberts and Dawny,hope you both feel ok again soon I posted this morning about last night and that I felt I had hit rock bottom and today I went out and talked to my church friends and they said you are lovely to us and I smiled as I went to college,Its not about who you are outside as its inside that counts.I have to chat to my phscologist soon about what I felt last night,It will be hard but she will understand me and what I am going through.I find disappointments hard to deal with,Last night on a website I use I was in a christmas draw and two prizes were allocated to me because I was chosen last and I had a look and I was going to take them orginally and then I realised the next minute I couldnt use them,so contacted the person concerned to say I couldnt use them and suddenly I felt so ungrateful and so selfish and I thought they wont understand,but today I had a message saying from them it was no problem and then I was happy.

Have a nice evening


*hugs* to all


love and light,

OK, I've just spent the last hour crying because I got some medication from the doctor today, and I've realised I can't take it. I'm allergic to the ingredients. I spose it's a good thing I read the leaflet, but I'm just so upset because I can't take it

Hi guys!:hello:
Just a Tiff thought...

Remembering You...

Whose brave hearts,
Whose valiant deeds,
Whose steadfast determination,
Whose selfless courage,
Whose honourable causes,
Whose noble sacrifices,
Whose families wept,
Whose silence deafens...

We hear you still.

Much Love,

:hello: Juno,

I am sorry to hear about this *hugs* can you take the meds back to the dr today and say you are allergic to the ingredients in it and could they prescribe you some that you are not allergic to.Sorry cant advise anymore though.

*hugs*
