Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
Claire-Rose- Well done for getting through a difficult day and for making it to visit the certain someone [is there a reason we're not saying her name?!]
Hazel- Well done for taking such a brave step in trying to seek help!
Kia- Well done for surving the visit to your dad; I know you don't enjoy doing that!
Marie- what a pro! I was just saying this morning how you sometimes appear to be not doing well and I'm like Oh Dear, Marie's Not Going To Be Very Heroic Today Is She, but you always manage to come out fighting and do tons of heroic shit even when you're feeling really bad. You're a true hero. I hope you get the sentiment here; I'm not trying to be patronising or anything. I hope you have a tip-top dinner at your girlfriend's house.
Sketchy (I feel as though I know your name, but I can't quite think what it is :-/)- Glad you had a nice evening, and were able to get through some negatives to get there in the first place :)
Wakeful Dreamer- Well done for allowing yourself to cry instead of self harming. I hope you're feeling ok now!
In Jenna and Jodie land, I am doing nothing of great interest, but I guess NONE of the behaviours and lots of the nomming is a legit thing to be proud of? And Jodie is ALL the heroic at the moment. She had a hard day, but was brave and nommed a scary food with me, and then went to a SRS BSNS appointment today, and she is going to throw out a certain dangerous substance today also [and this a gentle reminder for her to do so, as she may have forgotten that she said she would :p]

Have you people not heard of in cognito windows? Saves a lot of time with the whole logging out thing!

Thank you, Jenna, that means a lot. That's legit how I feel every day, I'm all 'woe, let's give up!' and then don't, haha.
Really proud of you, Jodietrix. <3

And Jenna, you constantly make me very proud at the moment <3

saw GP who really upset me but I didn't go and do any of the bad things I wanted to due to this. And even though I still really want to I am not going to do so - in part as I have cadets tonight and a job interview in the morning and don't want to mess them up but I'm thinking that the lack of behaviors is more important than the motivation for the lack of behaviors lol
And the crisis team came and instead of my usually "yes I am fine, no I am not going to do anything" thing that I do to get them to go away I was actually honest with them. Though this did result in some very odd advise being given to me lol
And And And!!! Despite being IN A SHOP today I bought none of the alcohols, meaning that I have barely any in the house... and as it's 4 miles to the nearest shop I am thinking this should mean I am going to be sober tonight!
I managed to get through a really tough day yesterday, managed toget out of bed today, and carry on to have a very nice day, and feel loads better.
Yay :) days when we have to force ourselves out of bed but manage to have a nice/good day make it sooo worth it

Crying is defantly a better thing than the self-harms. I'm glad that it made you feel better :)

I've had an incredibly emotional day and engaged in none of the behaviours even when being all the fliddy.
I tried new food again today.
Yay for no behaviours and new food! Was the food nice?

lol liking the joint update :P . Well done both of you :D you are both seriously recovery pros
Claire-Rose- Well done for getting through a difficult day and for making it to visit the certain someone [is there a reason we're not saying her name?!]
Nope, no reason at all for not saying her name! I just posted that straight after mentioning it in another thread and was trying to add a little diversity so as not to bore people with my duplicate posts XD
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare,
As any she belied with false compare.
Emma- congratulations on your week and two week freeness! You're a recovery pro =D
Hazel, well done on being so pro-recovery in ALL the ways! I hope the crisis team can be helpful to you :)
The previously mentioned chemical is gone. This is a really big step for leJodie, so a mexican wave or something would be appropriate congratulations :)
I be a week free from cutting and 2 weeks free from le laxatives!
:D YAY!!!! 2 milestones in one! That is great, especially with all the stuff you've got going on

DOUBLE YAY!!! Well done Jodie (and Jenna for helping). I know it's probably scary but was the right thing to do and you are being totally amazing with your progress
I'm being a hero-hog today (we'll see how long it lasts this time) lol, but it's 11pm and I am totally sober
*Mexican wave* for Jodie. :)
And for all other good deeds for everyone else, a London Wave, or something!
I don't know if this counts, but I went to the Mind walking group for the second time today. I felt really awkward today, but the facilitator said that I really did help out.
And, I did some cleaning. In the kitchen. Not to my flatmate's standard, I know, but I did some cleaning. No mean feat when you're feeling really low and tired.
As I say, I'm not sure if these count, but I'm trying.
