Thank you @Anastasia I'm exhausted and not great at giving myself self care. Something I truly need to work on more

Great to hear you are feeling a little better hun. I'm sorry your appointment was rescheduled. I know how frustrating that is. When is your new appointment time?

Ditto @Lee82
Perhaps we could use each other to be accountable? Tell me your self care plan for tomorrow and I can check on you? I should be exercising. I keep putting it off. I'm not motivated and lazy.

Unfortunately self care is so hard for me cause at the moment I am homeschooling 2 children plus I am my mums delivery person from 8 til 12. She has a coffee van and people order coffees through fb and I deliver them to their house.
but I also should be exercising everyday. We have a dog that I should be walking everyday. I got into a little routine a couple months ago but that is all gone now. Not only am I really busy but by the time I am all done I am exhausted. I also don't feel safe leaving my house. This is a new development as I never really had that fear but now I feel very vulnerable and unsafe outside.

That is a lot @Lee82
I hear you about feeling unsafe outside, it's a very real fear for many now, me included. Not sure what to offer but here for you to chat if that helps? 🌹

Thank you so much @Anastasia I am always here for a chat too if ever you need. I am just a tag away.
what type of exercise do you normally do?
do you go for walks or are you more a gym person?

I was a gym person but not anymore @Lee82
Now I have an exercise bike and cross training gathering dust.

Motivation is so difficult to achieve. I understand the fight very well. Isn't it frustrating knowing that something so simple can have great powers in making us feel better however if feels like an Impossible task to even begin.
