    I like how caring and supportive I am
    I like how I'm always willing to prove my team wrong, I will NOT be labelled as treatment resistant 
    I like my hair 🤷‍♀️😂

    Haven't been for a walk cause the wind is crazy! But still managed my 10,000 steps at work 🤷‍♀️ (hope it's okay to post that, 10,000 is the daily recommend steps so i think it's okay?)

    I'm thankful for my team, well the team I have now 😂 they listen to me and ask for my input in my treatment instead of just deciding things for me 😁 and my psychiatrist for not sectioning me when looking back he probably should of 😂 but he knows from talking to me that psychiatric hospitals don't help me, and often just make things worse😊
