Re: Hobbies and Projects

@Captain24 it's bad but so good! A boss I had told me about how her husband went and bought a new car when he was manic. I couldn't believe how calm she was about it all, but as she said, he didn't realise that he was doing something bad. I am grateful I don't have enough money to do something like that!

Although I did just buy 5 more diamond paintings that I "had" to have!

 

I have a dentist appointment this afternoon so I know I have to have money for that. Otherwise I might be in trouble lol.

@Dreamy I can't wait to see it darlingheart, I imagine it will be lovely.

Re: Hobbies and Projects

@GezzaP please don't be hard on yourself. I spent too many years regretting and feeling ashamed after overspending. 

What I try to do is tell myself that I will do better next time and ask myself for forgiveness. 
You have nothing to be ashamed of.

Re: Hobbies and Projects

@Chasingsunsets I never considered myself arty, in fact I still don't! Diamond art is good for me as the colours and patterns are pre-set. I love colouring in but I will spend half the time choosing a pattern and then the colours. I get frustrated that my brain won't let me just colour!

Re: Hobbies and Projects

@Dreamy I love it! Border collie is my favourite breed 🙂

Re: Hobbies and Projects

@Dreamy now that is art! The colours are so vibrant and gorgeous 🙂

Re: Hobbies and Projects

Thankyou @ENKELI sweetheart ❤️.

 

Border collies are a gorgeous breed ☺️

Re: Hobbies and Projects

I don’t have the euphoria to go with it though. @ENKELI. I’m just not sleeping and inside of me is full of energy but the outside has no motivation and is tired and worn out. But I keep pushing myself to match my inside energy. I have the intrusive thoughts that hit as the day goes on and I’m really irritable! So this time it’s not actually fun which is so disappointing! 😜 

Re: Hobbies and Projects

@Captain24 I understand that feeling. These days I struggle to get out of bed, yet my mind wants to get up, clean the house and potter in the garden. Usually by the time I go to bed and my night meds have kicked in my mind is racing with all the things I want to do. Thank goodness the night meds put me to sleep. Don't be hard on yourself, I am learning that feeling guilty really doesn't help after all, it just adds to the frustration.

Thinking of you xoxo
