I'm still trying to understand this thread, so please be patient with me while I baby step with this thread.

First, it's not easy for me to check in every day, but I will try.

My goals each day as a ME/CFS, PTSD survivor include pacing myself, not overdoing it, and making one healthy adjustment per day - whether that be showering, grooming, doing a chore to completion, eating a healthy meal, being able to fast for a short amount of time, catching myself before making a mistake, etc. I don't have one set goal at the moment because my entire life needs major changes altogether in order for me to reverse prediabetes, deal with possible thyroid problems, deal with obesity, deal with emotional swings from all of my physical and mental disorders, and deal with this dreadful pandemic.

So, since I joined this thread, I've been able to process some of my thoughts with my therapist, maintain my safety list on a daily basis, and prepare for improving my daily routine to a healthier, more consistent one. I'm not there yet, but I'm thinking about it. The "thinking about it" and processing all my grief, loss, and anger at this necessary need for change is a huge step for me. It means I'm not dissociating, and I'm working with my alters (I also have DID) so that we can focus on health.

Sorry for the lengthy post here, but these small steps are helping me. I may not be able to post every day right now, but I'm summarizing what I've done since the last time I've posted.
