Hi CindySue

Well done on the decision to do this day trip! Hope you enjoy it. I think we get so caught up in life that we forget to just have fun sometimes.....

Stardust,

I read through the list and put check marks next to everyone I either used to like to do or think I would like to do...it has lots of good ideas for simple things. I've been feeling so low I think in a way I didn't feel I deserved to do fun things. Now I realize it is important to make them a priority.

The trip at the end of November is motivating for me as a kind of reward for sticking with CBT, and I'll be able to enjoy the trip more if I'm less depressed then!

Hi CindySue

Great stuff. So pleased for you. Hope you have a glorious time and the sun shines.

You have just motivated me to print myself a copy of 'Pleasant Activities' - Thanks

I decided to make my goal to take a small day trip. Well I chose a place and researched how to get there and miraculously it looks like my husband is on board, too! We might even do it this Saturday.

I told my husband how I was doing this CBT and I even told him how I had a printed list of "Pleasant Activities" to choose from, and surprisingly it seems like he is realizing that we need to make more of an effort to do fun things. He isn't depressed himself but he really gets into workaholic mode.

In fact our day trip on Saturday would be combined with his work, I want to go to a nature reserve that just so happens to be near a town he needs to visit for his work, so he's going to visit his work contacts first and then we'll go from there to the reserve. Well, at least it's something.

But even better news is we stopped into a travel agency and we might be going on a 5 day trip to a place where we've always wanted to go, that wouldn't be until the end of November. I do have something about the nature of the trip that I could complain about but you know what, I'm just going to try to focus on the positive.
