September 2025 achievements!

Hello everyone, I'm sorry for the slightly late check-in! I hope you've all been okay - I can't believe it's October now!
I'd really love to hear what you've all been up to in September that's made you proud! Of course, it doesn't matter how big or small your achievements are, and feel free to share as many as you like. I hope that recognising your achievements helps with your mental wellbeing
Here are mine:
- I'm currently getting the support I need with my mental health, so I'm really grateful to have reached out in the first place
- I'm still volunteering at the hospital and I'm happy that I've encouraged more patient involvement in creative activities
- I had two job interviews in one day, and although it was tiring, I'm so proud that I was able to concentrate better and articulate myself well! I'm really happy with the answers I gave
Well done everyone for getting through another month, I'm so so proud of you all
Hope everyone has a lovely October!

better month this month.
Well done @eylah you're incredible, don't ever think otherwise. You're so valued here ❤️
Started a course which is learning stuff about interviews, cover letters, CV stuff etc for jobs, I have been most days, just the first couple of days I was deciding on what course to do, another longer course which I got offered or the one Im on, I decided to just go with the one Im on, shorter. Its quite far and costing more fuel, which I'm hopefully going to get reimbursed but Im still going, I just wish some people would know how much I want this
Small one but I found a way to overcome my overthinking, basically just deleting messages from just myself so I can't look back and overthink
Continuing my online counselling
I had a job interview in early September, didn't get it but Im doing something right to get an interview, I got it through no organisations or anything just through applying myself
I've improved my cv with a call from National Careers Service
Just saying determined is one, Ive had setbacks and been trying since early last year but I'm still here not giving up chasing them goals coz I know I will get there and I need this, I can do this.
Congratulations to everyone who has already posted and posts after this, they all sound great. All achievements are great big or small.
Now onto my September achievments:
- I've started my internship this month doing a work placement at a personal hygiene company that specialises in hand dryers etc. I'm currently working in their marketing department and I'm learning about everything marketing!. The internship is mainly designed for neurodivergent people in mind and the aim is to help us to get into full time employment.
- My routine is slowly starting to improve because of the earlier starts and having to start at 9 in the morning. So I've been going to bed earlier.
It’s a great sign that you’re getting interviews, and that you’ve been reaching out to lots of sources that offer careers support!
You’re so right in saying that all achievements are amazing, no matter how big or small. Hope the best for you this month
Your internship sounds so interesting! It’s lovely to hear that it suits the needs of neurodivergent people to help you with getting full time jobs! Hope it continues to go well
It’s really great that your routine is improving as a result of this. We often underestimate going to sleep earlier — it really helps with both our physical and mental health!
Thank you so so much for sharing, and you’re so so right, every small step matters
