What a great message?! Often we place a significant amount of pressure on ourselves to achieve goals which may be unrealistic for a number of reasons. Could you be doing this?

Get your expectations in check. This can save yourself the sense of violation you'll otherwise feel at the first, and subsequent, missteps, that arise from being invested in the goals-achieved-straightforward belief. ☺️🩷

A great little app I just came across which helps normalise emotions using a mood meter and also allows you to monitor patterns. Some great activities to manage distress and also some handy psychoeducation. What’s even better is it’s free to access!
