The Days After The Diagnosis
So much is written about how to get a diagnosis; what the criteria is for a diagnosis and what to do when you don’t get one but little is written about how it feels to get the diagnosis.

I am a big list writer – hence my love of the BuJo. So I wanted to share my lists with you of what has and hasn’t worked in my BuJo set up and what hasn’t.
However, this week, we realised how much impact my love of lists has had on my son.
Do you have conversations with yourself where you try to justify behaviour or talk yourself into doing something you know you shouldn’t? A chat where the voices in your head battle it out to win their own way?
If you have a goal in your head, this is just a wish or a desire. A wish does not give you the motivation to get up and do. Believe me, I have so many wishes. I wish I was slimmer, I wish I was fitter, I wish my garden looked like an advert for Home and Garden and not Beginners Guide to Gardening, etc.
I have recently discovered yet another dippy hippy activity – my husband’s words, not mine. I am talking about Hal Elrod’s Miracle Morning.
I have sat today and wrote down all I am proud of, all that has gone well for me and also who has nurtured and supported me throughout the year and finally what I am going to let go of in 2016.
As we sat down to dinner over the weekend, I asked “if there was one thing you could do once a month, just to make you happy, what would it be?”
It has taken me a bit of time to be able to write this post as the pain of hearing those words was almost my un-doing. I’m seen as a strong woman who can handle anything that is thrown at me; and, to be honest, I like to perpetuate that myth – in the hope that it will one day be true.
I am going to plan to be positive. I will set myself some small goals each week or month to help me stay positive and, most importantly, I will do all I can to achieve them.
