- I don't even know why exactly, but food and eating was difficult for me again. You probably should know that I have an eating disorder, Binge Eating Disorder. I'm recovering and the main symptom - binge eating attacks - is pretty much under control but eating and all things around it (cooking, buying groceries, etc.) can be very difficult for me when I'm not feeling well. So I had a pretty bad eating pattern this week, and I expect it to reflect it just as badly on the scales next week as they did this week.
- I also didn't clean a lot, just managed to keep control of the mount of dishes. I caught up a bit yesterday, at least.
- No jobs fitting my profile this week either ;_;. I noticed that my resolution in that aspect was really unrealistic - there simply are not enough jobs for my profession in the area where I'm looking, certainly not enough to manage one application each week. There have to be jobs I can write the applications for!
- Didn't do much art/fic either, just managed to prepare a drawing for colouring.
I hope next week will be better :/.
Expect relapse — What might trigger a return to a former behavior?
Mental problems - see above - and a stretch of lack of success are the most important causes, along with lack of time. I'm easily discouraged and I'm trying hard to tell me that relapses do not constitute failure.
