Hello everyone - hope you've all had a lovely start to your November!
I'm back again for the monthly achievement check-in! I'd really love to hear what you've all been up to in October that's made you proud! Of course, it doesn't matter how big or small your achievements are - what really matters is the impact! I hope that acknowledging our victories can contribute to improved mental wellbeing
Here are mine:
- I inflated my car tyres at a petrol station which I was so worried about, turns out that it wasn't so bad after all! I was so worried that they would explode because of me hahah
- I'm still volunteering at the ward and I'm happy that I've been working with the staff there to get new resources for the patients, so they've been able to participate in activities more!
- I completed this year's Inktober art challenge, where I drew something that related to the prompts each day, just using my ballpoint pen! It was incredibly fun
Huge well done for getting through October everyone! You're all amazing!
Hope you all have a wonderful November

Good achievements @kaii , inflating car tyres can be a bit fiddly.
Mine are
Attending my course I had which was like information about jobs, covering cover letters, tailored cvs to jobs etc, I was unfocused sometimes but still went
I had 2 interviews, got declined from bothbbut had them both in the same week, its not October anymore but I'm currently waiting for my 3rd, Ive not had that many interviews in a short amount of time. 1 of them was only once a week anyway so a blessing in disguise I didn't get it as it wont have been finacially worth it considering commuting and fuel.
My key worker has referred me onto a work programme that apparently gets you into work within 30 days and I had to just be like I don't feel like anything is working so was like help me basically so I am hopefully soon going to be seeing someone to help me get into work
Im still keeping going despite everything
Contacting recruitment agencies which I would have struggled with doing myself months ago especially a year ago, I would have had to get my uncle to ring for me
I don't have many achievements from last month as things were really difficult, but I was able to get through the month, which I consider an achievement, as well as joining this community. I haven't been here for very long but being able to support other people has been so healing and has benefited my mental health a lot. I've also been better this past month at taking care of myself and being kind to myself, instead of trying to push through the pain.
Hopefully I'll have a little more to share next month, and I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's achievements
Not many achievements for October sadly
● won an award
●raised money for yet another charity
●got custody of a child who is now my wonderful son.
That is literally it, they are not the best.
I'm incredibly proud of you for getting 2 interviews - it's so amazing that you've managed to get to this stage! It shows that you're learning and improving from your previous applications! I hope the work programme will be helpful for you, I wish you all the luck. Also well done for contacting recruitment agencies yourself! So glad that you've developed the confidence to do this
So proud of you for not giving up despite everything being difficult - I hope you have a lovely November
You're absolutely right, just getting through the month is a huge achievement itself! It's lovely to have you here in our community, and I'm so happy to hear that supporting people has helped you yourself! It's also amazing that you're listening and being kind to yourself too, since it can be easy to push ourselves too hard.
I hope you have a great November!
Thank you @kaii, that's very kind of you. I hope you have a wonderful November as well
Congrats!! What kind of award did you win? Well done for raising money for a charity too! And I'm so glad to hear that you got custody of your son
Hope you have a lovely November
Thank you!
The award was for an inspirational person.
Thank you @kaii congratulations for your achievements too, weve all got this. Really appreciate you for these threads every month.
