My Mental Health Journal

I haven’t been able to say this much lately, not for awhile really but yes, today was a good day. After the last few days of just constantly struggling with my thoughts they all seemed to fade into the background today. I have absolutely no idea why that was but I’d they can stay there and leave me alone then I’ll be so much happier.

Maybe it was getting out and sitting in the garden reading a book. Maybe doing that I was able to feel more relaxed, outside from the same four walls that I look at day in day out, who knows?! Seeing the dogs running up and down the garden, playing fetch with them also made me smile, I haven’t done much of that recently either but today I did and it felt good.

I know I’m still a long way off feeling relatively normal again but today was a start and hopefully a good night’s sleep will follow now and I can wake up tomorrow and continue to make progress. Let’s hope so. 💚
