Daily Check in for April 19th 2022
How are you feeling today?
Why do you think you're feeling this way?
What is one thing you can do for self care today?
And for the teenies what fun thing did you do over spring break?
Hey :) I've been struggling. I've been keeping most of it to myself and putting on a semi happy face when out around people. But I am struggling
I met my father last week on my birthday. Tbh - Idk why. He was abusive when I was a kid. He left when I was little and left me with her. I don't call her by what she was supposed to be - just her. Meeting with him set off all sorts of things and I've been shut down since. There was a few things that happened before that I've been trying to work through and it's like one things gets close to being ok and then something else happens. And I just feel so hopeless lately and just can't seem to find my way back from the pit of misery and tbh - it scares me alittle. I mean - I'm not at a crisis level but I can see it wouldn't take much for it to slip there. Sorry - I guess I just needed to put that somewhere
There's a project I've been working on the past week - something for fun - so I'll probably work on that alittle
Thank you for the check in :) Take care

@kindcherry2 Thank you for your kindness and for allowing me to drop these thoughts here.
Hii!
It’s been a bit up and down today honestly. I finally went to class today after struggling for 2 months with skipping it, which was great. But, I dunno. There was just this huge downward switch immediately when I got back to my dorm.
However, bc it wasn’t the absolute best today, my girlfriend and I cooked dinner together and are now watching our comfort show (How I Met Your Mother) :)

1. I'm feeling... Capable. More in tune with deeper truths.
2. I'm actually rested for once, and it's nice and cloudy outside.
3. Today... I will play video games and work out. And maybe do some writing hopefully. I've done some reading already.
@Torean
