My personal development continued the next steps.

 

This is something that I need to write for accountability, so I have due to some personal reasons and some with changes in care staff have got out of a routine and have let bad habits creep drinking excess caffeine (though I have discovered that name-brand coke soft drink does give me some level of pain relief, from nerve pain) These things being.

Binge eating at night.

Not keeping up with housework

Not having a good solid routine

Not exercising enough to be able to keep excess weight off

I am not talking to support workers when things are getting to me

Not keeping up with my specialist appointments

Not keeping up with friends

Being over-tired due to having too much screen time

Not keeping up with my physiotherapy

Not understanding the role of support workers in my life

Not keeping up with the housework I am responsible for and accountable for – washing and ironing clothes and keeping an accurate shopping list,

Not keeping to a reasonable budget and allowing myself to overspend

 

So with these in mind I am now going to take myself on a journey and I am inviting my readers along for the ride, I am going to choose one thing and then work on it, the first one I am going to work on is the physio as it is as simple as making the appointment in the morning and getting transport from a support worker from Semloh, to take me there the one thing that I have started doing is excerise more as house work is excerise and I think that we really do need to remember as people with disabilities and chronic illness to get approval from our teams first to go into a structured program as if you are under NDIS or other international equivalents we see that there might be at home program’s or exercise physiology might be better than just jumping into a program as for some excerise might trigger underlying problems if someone isn’t trained in things like seizures disorders, movement disorders and chronic pain and this could actually make things worse and I have heard and seen support workers push excerise and health onto people who weren’t ready for the change and wondered why people where requesting the change of staff because they couldn’t politely stand up to people around this issue.

I will let the readers know how it goes and by putting it down on paper it means that I can be much more accountable to myself in getting my health back as I want to get my health back to a healthy range and weight as I am now in a category that could be considered overweight.
