Personal Best Challenge
Lack of self-esteem and anxiety are very common amongst young people and can sometimes lead to other mental health issues.
The My Personal Best Challenge will enable you to celebrate your personal achievements and as a result increase your self-esteem and confidence; whether it’s making a new friend, speaking aloud in a classroom or at work, or running a marathon – your challenges are personal and no matter how small, deserve celebration and recognition when they are achieved.

Finished exams
So i have finished my GCSE's to the best i can! i know the grade wont be as good as they could've been due to my eating disorder. But i've tried my hardest. Now lets see the results!
Went shopping
I went shopping by myself. I have anxiety issues and going out shopping with no one is hard. I put my head phones in and listened to music whilst i was shopping. I didnt buy anything-im stingy!
Be better with Dad
Me an my dad don't always get a long, i think he is depressed which upsets me soo much, my mum said if we were all nicer to him he might improve, its so hard but i'm giving it a go!

Ate every meal
today I ate every meal which has been getting easier to do recently. I think I may finally be getting better! :')
I wore jeggings!
I hate my body shape and the way i look and this usually results in wearing baggy clothes making me look like a boy. My mum took me shopping and we tried on girly stuff, i enjoyed it and for once when i came home I went out in public with them on. I thought people would stare but no one did, and now i can wear jeggings which is a step my counselor wanted me to try and make :)
Ignore nasty opinions
I sometimes receive nasty opinions by girls from our local youth club, I end up coming home upset. Today i'd like to not let the nasty people get me down and enjoy my night with my two best friends.
Ran a half marathon
I ran a half marathon for charity
