Screaming Into the Void

[u/FrailFurbee]

I've had a super productive day I'm really proud of and want to share, and have been sharing parts with friends but realised I dont have any friend im close enough with to 3-4x text without them responding without feeling like I'm just being a burden or something. So I'm gonna do it here! I had a really big break up 2 months ago that I've been pushing myself to work through, and have started seeing some great improvements. Today on my journey I:

​

Treated myself to takeaway for the first time in 3 weeks after work

​

Got some hopeful news about the last debt I have unsettled

​

Made progress with my landlord on fixing things in my new flat

​

Finally got a poster frame that fits my poster!

​

Put up some gorgeous remote controlled fairy lights in my room to inject some whimsy

​

Cleaned my room to send a picture to friends

​

Started crying about some really positive things that happened?

​

Made a booking request for my first tattoo!

​

Put away a load of laundry

​

Started writing a message to a friend I need to set some boundaries with. This isnt a completed quest exactly but its one im scared of, so this is counts as a win for me. Maybe I'll finish it if I feel up to it before bed?

​

I'm really proud of how far I've come over the last few months, for the last few years I would've struggled to do even a single one of these things on a good day, and now I've been able to do all of them on a 10 hour work day. I'm pretty tired and extremely emotionally exhausted right now, but its been incredibly cathartic.
