Find out tomorrow if I got on my course and at the same time will make some inroads to getting my own place....well hopefully get my own place it's a little complex, but one way or another I should find out tomorrow, maybe monday. lots of red tape to get through so still not definite.
The course is important because it fits in with my long term plan on my road to recovery. So hope it's good news.
I helped out today for world mental health day, I volunteered at a local mental health drop in and assisted with their open day, I met the mayor and it was quite interesting. Took my mind off my anxieties. Anxiety is quite high at present with everything that is going on but I'm carrying on and not letting it beat me , so far.
I hope the day has been kind to you all.

Thank you for the response. Yes it's not easy had a bit of a melt down this morning before I left the house after a phone call. But I'm fighting on.....
I hope you are ok and the days are being kind to you
It sounds to me as though you are doing so well. I think most people would be anxious with what you have in front of you so shouldn't worry about that too much
Hope that you get a place on the course.... with all the positivity I am sure you will. Good times are ahead I reckon. All the very best. Julie xx
Julie, thank you for your response, this thread and the people on here have helped me through this day which has proved difficult. I wanted to let you know I just heard I got on the course thank you xxx
Just want to wish you good luck with your house moving, not that your course is not important but moving can be a life changing and scary process. Make sure you have a reliable support network to call upon when you need it.
I am sure you will be sucessful on getting onto your course but be mindful of the fact that doing several things all at once can be daunting and it sounds as though you will have a lot going on so take your time and take care of yourself.
Sending you very best wishes for a bright and hopeful future my friend
Take care of youself and let us all know how you progress
Thank you Angie, you are so right. I only moved to where I am now 3 weeks ago. So it is all very daunting, long story but I'm waiting to move into my own flat, this is not coming easy and yes it's tough, my anxiety is high but because this is all very crucial to me I'm being as strong as I can, I see this all as a way forward in my journey. I'm finding it tough to be honest but it's all so important to my well being. Ironic really you have to do such anxious things to achieve hope in your well being.
Like most things in life you have to try them, to find out if they'll work for you or not.
And it sounds as though you're ready.
The fact that you're willing to push through your anxieties to achieve them is commendable but this also tells me that these things mean a lot to you and are something you believe in or believe will help you long term, in your recovery.
So try to keep up that inner positivity . And dont let yourself or others pile on any pressure. As silly human beings, we already place so many constraints on ourselves so it can be all to easy to push forward too quickly and then fall at the first hurdle. We're all rooting for you Adorable. #goodluckmyfriend.
I just really want to say how pleased I am for you, you sound such a wonderful person and someone who is fighting their demons with absolute strength and you are a breath of fresh air to us all, knowing what you are going through but what you are also accomplishing.You certainty put me to shame:/
I wish you all the very best in whatever course it is you are hoping to do and with everything. It shows to me that it is possible to do things when you really out your mind to it. I'm having a tough time thinking positive right now and to have just read your post has made me feel that little bit better, so thank you, and honestly I wish you lots of luck with it all.
The course is just one day a week which I would feel able to manage now. It's a course that will help me to assist others with mental health problems...if I get on the course successfully complete it then a huge chance of working for the organisation part time, initially it would be maybe an afternoon a week ...it's good for me as you take the work thing slowly and have supervision, so a great way of returning to the work place. A total new vocation for me though.
Thank you again I'm sat waiting for the phone to ring with news from the various people....quite nerve wracking...
Hannah I just found out I got on the course thank you so much for your kind words and your prayer, it has been a stressful day I'm exhausted but the outcome is good, they will now send a letter to housing so I may also get the flat, but not building my hopes on that one, it's such a struggle and I've suffered today a lot, the lovely people on here with kind words has so helped me
Wow, that's fantastic news, I am so so happy for you, well done. You have done so well. Take care hun and i hope things continue to go well for you, you really deserve it! Xxx
YAY....well done to you. That should give your confidence a wee lift and is fantastic news. Think positive about the flat and it will happen.You have been so strong on a very difficult day........ how we continue to do this is amazing to me.
Take care, relax a little . Hugs to you, Julie xxl
It is the first thing I have done which is toward going back into the workplace, finished work in March with anxiety and depression. It's been a journey, a very tough one as we all know that suffer ...it's a step in the right direction, slow step but it's an achievement for me. So pleased I made you smile, thank you for the support.
My psychologist told me it was all about small steps at a time to achieve what we want to. Taking big steps and looking at the big picture is too scary and it is one of the best pieces of advice that I have been given. I just break things down to small steps now and things become more achievable. And also, to give yourself a pat on the back and BIG recognition when you do achieve things. He was very good for me... I kinda miss talking to him now I don't have to go anymore.So, BIG pat on the back for you and, again, well done. xx Julie.
