I’m happy to have completed week 6 of the plan. I’ve gone a bit off track with the course due to some bad seizures and being in hospital but I’m trying to get myself back on track.
Issues with my memory are one of my main concerns and knowing that stress and anxiety can make my memory problems worse helps me to focus on trying to remain calm and focus my attention on relaxation techniques and practical ways of helping with my memory problems such as writing my journal, keeping a diary and note pad of things I need to do.
I had used a very good App – Moodfit but I was finding keeping up with this on my phone at night was becoming a stress in itself and being on screen late at night was affecting my sleep so I have stopped using my phone and treated myself to a “Knock Knock” Journal which I love. They are a bit expensive but they have a motivational saying each day and I find the act of hand writing my thoughts before bed calming in itself. I’m also not tied to write it every day – just as an when I feel I want to write.
