Speaking of impossible tasks. They don’t have to stay impossible all the time. One of my biggest problems was controlling my rating and my weight gain a year ago I looked like this on the left a year and one day later I am 2.2 stone lighter. I am so determined. I am proud. And I hope I can inspire some of you. It was also medication for psychosis that was a massive weight gainer @JosephineO @Tizzely

@Daisydef Congrats on losing so much weight, you should be very proud of yourself! My weight has gone up and down over the years, right now it is okay but far from where I want it.
I used to be someone who would swim at least twice a week and now I just don't go...once I finish work in the evenings I find it hard to motivate myself. Usually when I open my eyes in the morning I am just immediately thinking...I can't wait to be back here soon!

I HAVE to be tidy and organised. Dont necessarily get clean beforehand before being shoved on top of more stuff wacked in a cupboard where I cant see s**t but, I have to be tidy. Bit like a Swan beautifully and elegantly gliding across the water but, underneath its flithy dirty, stinky messy, rank and disgustingly ashamed and embrasssed, if folk knew actually went on.

@Confused.com I am sorry but this made me laugh because I can RELATE SO MUCH. My home can look tidy sometimes but in the drawyers etc there lies a disorganised mess.

@Pleasance I feel the same at times and finding ways to cope can be hard but always look out for number 1

The Impossible Task
Whenever people are suffering from depression the symptoms that appear are vast and varied; from insomnia to weight fluctuations. For the European Depression Day, instead of talking about the well-known symptoms of depression, we want to ask you what your ‘impossible task’ is.
The term ‘impossible task’ became known through a viral Twitter thread where everyone shared their ‘impossible task’. These tasks referred to the mundane, everyday actions that used to be easy to do but now seem impossible, such as doing the laundry, picking up your prescription or even washing a plate.
Please share with us your ‘impossible task’ and gain comfort in knowing that you aren’t alone in sometimes finding seemingly simple actions as insurmountable.
