I'm ok thanks @Sunnyside226
Been sanding some of my balcony and painting. Long overdue.
I'm sorry if I forgot (happens a lot when I'm having ECT) but what's next Friday?

@Snowie painting sounds nice, you painting anything in particular?
Next Friday is my mum's anniversary
There's going to be lots of feelings I may not be okay on Friday.
Any plans for tomorrow?

Been repainting our Balcony handrail. Hasn't been done for awhile and gets lots of sun so was overdue. Was peeling and cracking in places.
No plans yet for tomorrow.
Anniversaries can be really hard @Sunnyside226. They do bring up lots of different feelings all at the same time.
Will you be spending it alone or with others?
Please remember that we will be here too if you need some extra support.

I can understand that @Sunnyside226 I'm not that good around others either.
Sometimes it's easier to be alone, you don't have to worry about others or trying to keep it together.
I lost my dad 9 years ago now. It's hard losing a parent, especially when we are very close to them.
Do what is right for you. That might be different to others and that's ok. We all grieve in our own way.

I'm sorry about your dad,
This is the second Christmas without both my parents I wish they were here so I could be close to them and be happier I wish I had hugged my parents longer sorry if this triggers you I'm happy to take it down or the moderate can
