Hi Chris at the moment I'm half way through my degree on psychotherapy and I have a good grasp on mental health i also suffer from depression and anxiety so feel free to pm me anytime (in total confidence)At the time when I was struggling and battling for recovery from an unbelievably deep and destructive psychological breakdown and drug withdrawal symptoms, I found that making a jobs list for the next day proved to be of great assistance in getting things done. I didn't always complete the list on that day and would add the uncompleted task to the list for the next day. I would also break some jobs down into smaller bites.
I always kept my jobs list at hand and ticked off each job as I completed the task and moved on to the next. Oh, and I tried not to make the list too long; lest falling too short should discourage me.
As an aside, perhaps to assist and support some of our silent readers, are there any of us here who have used any of the psychological support organisations and can report on the value thereof? I, sadly, never did but was supported by my wife, local clergy, and psychiatric hospital staff.
The FCN and the Samaritans sound like superb organisations to assist anyone in times of deep stress. I have never used either of the aforementioned organisations but did work manning a phone for the Samaritans for a time ( a long time after my recovery) and would commend them to anyone in need of a friendly ear to listen to them. Of course, the FCN will be more attuned to problems of an agricultural nature, I suppose.
Stay safe, stay well, and may your new year be greatly blessed with peace and contentment.
Chris .
