    Overall it was a bit of a mixture but at least I managed to count a couple of blessings.

    You’re fab!!
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Thanks for your indulgence. It’s too much for me to be clogging up the forum with my daily ramblings so for the last time for a while:

    Positive thought - First day without contact from the crisis team and I managed quite well.

    Positive action - Drove to the Welsh coast and saw the beautiful countryside in lovely weather. There are things to be thankful for.

    Oh Drew, please don’t stop! It’s not too much at all and I, for one, enjoy your ramblings

    Thanks for being so kind. Thinking about what to write does make me look at my day differently so I’ll continue to find positive things to share for a little while.

    Or more or less, whatever feels right

    Not a good day but my positive thought is that I can’t expect to win every day, it’s the long term trend that matters. I need to be realistic.

    One good thing was I managed 7 hrs. sleep without the sleeping pills. I’m not sure about using them regularly I seem so lethargic the morning after I’ve taken them.

    One story you may find funny: before my drive to the coast yesterday I needed to fill up with fuel. As I paid and returned to the car I decided to take off my sweatshirt. As my arms reached skyward my recent loss of weight saw my trousers drop to my ankles. Embarrassment+++
