    Heading away tomorrow with my daughter for a few days break. The weather forecast is rain, rain, rain but its Ireland, it's what we do best. Coats and hiking boots packed.

    Have fun!
    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.

    Hi everyone. Just home from our break away. I had the best time with my girl. We did loads, saw loads, laughed loads and made so many memories. We went sea kayaking and even got to kayak into a cave.
    We walked in the wind and rain on our favourite beaches and ate lovely meals together but most of all we just relished each others company.
    Spending time away with A and then my daughter I feel refreshed, energised and with a recharged will to keep battling and get well again. Ready to keep working hard. It's only seeing how I feel now that I can realise how flat i was and not really engaging with the hard work it takes to get well.

    I love sharing happy things but mostly I'm writing this here so I can look back and remember how good I feel right now and that there are times I feel happy. It's important for the hard low times.

    Looking forward to catching up with everyone

    Feeling a little blue this evening. I found out that one of the guys I work with in the kitchen at the training centre was found dead in his flat yesterday. Such a friendly guy and loved a chat and a laugh.
    So sad to think of him alone.

    Is it selfish to say that it has made me more determined that that will not be my story? Only a short time ago that could easily have been me taking a OD and I was taking them. No more! I want to beat this.

    You’re allowed to feel blue about something like that. I am so glad, though, that you’ve seen what could have been and not wanted that for yourself

    With your determination and fighting spirit you will get there without a doubt.
