Things That Are Helping

• Vitamins - B12 & D
• Coffee with sugar & cream - mmmmm comfort in a cup with a caffeine kick to keep me going.
• Phone/Text a friend - I use "my five" daily, at strategic points. They are company while I complete a yucky task, cheerleaders to motivate me, therapists to understand me. They are right there with me and gift me with their thoughts, tears and triumphs too. 
• Just do it - I set a timer and just do what needs to be done as best as I can for the time that I am able. Pick up the toy, change the diaper, make the meal, enter the data, wipe the nose, wash the clothes...just keep on even if it is never caught up, even if I am not able to do my best every time, even if no one notices, just keep on.
• Prayer - 1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety upon Him for he cares for you.
• Scripture - Philippians 4:8 Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things.
• Singing/Thinking Hymns - Great is Thy Faithfulness, It is Well, What a Friend We Have in Jesus, Ascribe to the Lord/Come & Sing Praises, Amazing Grace, Be Still and Know, Holy, Holy, Holy, Come Thou Fount...
• Clear my conscience as it becomes cluttered - saying sorry as soon as I know I'm wrong, confessing my worry as soon as it starts wearing me down, adjust my attitude as soon as I notice it has gone crooked...at least I try and it sure helps if I succeed.
• Inspirational listening - Focus on the Family daily broadcast, Michael Youssef, www.wordoftruthradio.com
• Asking for help
• Praying for others.
• Thinking of the future - nothing lasts forever, not even bad moods, some day I will feel better.
• Exercise, fresh air & sunshine 
• Baby hugs, drooly kisses and knock knock jokes - paying attention to the fun little snippets from each day, recording them through pictures and anecdotes to look at and savour when I feel like giving up.
• Tears - sometimes I just let them drip and splash and wash away the lumps and bumps of the day.
• Sleep
