2018: A Year in Review

[Oh Buoy]

So, how was your year? 

 

Best: 

- Moved into my first house. 

- First year in IAPT/Mental Health

- Decent holidays inc. finding out how cheap beer in Prague is. 

 

Worst:

- Career change meant a lower salary making saving challenging. 

- Realised the mental health industry is more fucked up than I had originally thought. 

 

2019:

- Boss holidays planned. 

- Renovating house. 

- Starting up a new wellbeing service.

Bloody hell, Ted.  That's awful, mate.  Sorry to hear that.  Hope things get better - look hard for the good and you will see it.

Sorry to hear that mate. I hope it gets better for you. Without sounding like a dick, sometimes it's best to get all that crap out of the way in quick succession. Less time to dwell on it at the time and you (mostly) get mentally stronger eventually for facing it all. Best wishes to you and your family.

Best:

We had our 2nd kid. My wife has endometriosis and we were told she'd never conceive again, and that we were extremely lucky to have our 1st child. 

 

Worst:

I've been really blessed this year. Nothing really bad has gone wrong and I'm coping with my anxiety. Just hope it doesn't mean it is stacking up... 

 

2019:

Try be less of a narky dick. Try do my long put off CCIE exams. Give more love and less abuse..

 

Peace

Thanks pal good to hear your good news. Anxiety is a twat I've been on anti depressants since I was 18. They really do help. My dad and uncles are heavy boozers I think they've stopped me becoming one.

Thinking of you and yours, mate.

Pros 

Got two dogs, they are great. 

Band stuff going well.

 

Cons

Had a breakdown recently, got through a very dark period thanks to the help of loved ones.

Mrs Junipers gran, a lady who I love, got very ill this Christmas and it’s heartbreaking to see her family go through it all knowing the end is near. Ended this evening holding her hand in the hospital while she was in and out of consciousness.

 

Basically 2018 was a year I want to forget.

Fucking hell, Ted, that's rough.

 

Just remember, if ever you need a sympathetic ear or some wise advice, keep moving; we're all cunts and quite, quite useless.
