Day 13- What I’ve done for charity

I’ve done a fair bit for charity.

  • Cancer research run,
  • Run for children with leukaemia
  • Clic Sargent Money pot
  • Lots of events to raise money for the two main wards that treated my sister when she was 2 and had cancer,
  • Mile a month marathon for British heart foundation,
  • Sponsoring family and friend, recently sponsored a friend for chrons and colitis.
  • Joined in with school charity events, jeans for genes,
  • Brought merchandise from charity and buy things from charity shops,
  • Plan to sky dive for charity, and the London marathon.

I’m sure there’s loads more I just can’t think of them right now. These are the main ones I remember.

Didn’t get in to the marathon

Yes I’m disappointed but I’m not ready, I will still apply next year and hope that I will be more physically and mentally ready.

I need to be able to run that far, get settled on new medication and loose weight. It’s motivation to try again next year.

When will I be better? Conversation with my cpn.

As you may be aware I’m currently diagnosed with anxiety, emotionally unstable personality disorder, and schizophrenia.

These effect my daily life greatly, I can’t go out alone, I’m caught up in self harming, and I hear voices. I’ve been told these are part of my illnesses.

Previously my community psychiatric nurse (cpn) has said that I’m ill, which I think I’m finding it difficult to fully admit to myself. So I thought I’d ask her when will I be better?

She replied, when I can have a fulfilling life, achieve what I want too, and do things with out be terrified.

I agree with her, and it’s got me thinking I want to have plans and achieve things with my life.

  • Be able to go out alone,
  • Get fitter and loose weight,
  • Go to Iceland,
  • Help people,
  • Help out in a charity shop,
  • Go shopping alone,
  • Write a book,
  • Get a job working with children with special needs,
  • Skydive,
  • Run a marathon.

So there just a few things I want to achieve. I want to feel alive.

Trainers.

I brought some new shoes today, two of them are to help me train for the marathon. I’m going to keep one pair for when I go out for a runs and walks. And the other pair for when I go I the gym. I’m hoping this is going to motivate me to get moving. I need to start putting more effort in and challenge myself. I’m finding this so difficult because I’m feeling so weak and ill right now. I want to be feeling better and fight for this happy healthy life I know I could have one day. 

And one pair to go with my everyday outfit, which will hopefully make me feel better with how I look and feel. I’m hoping I can try and get out more. I need to take my anxiety and my fears and worries and takes them head on. 

I feel guilty that I brought them for myself but hopefully it won’t be selfish if I get to run the marathon and raise vital funds for a worthy charity. Then I will look back on this day and blog post and be greatful I got them. They give me the opportunity to help others.

Marathon letter

Today I did my first marathon letter to a charity that’s very close to my heart.

I was asking them if I can run the Marathon on there behalf and then raise money for them. I see this as a massive challenge but one I’m really determined to do. 

I know there’s such a slim chance I will be chosen but I’m going to put all my effort in.

It was very emotional writing the letter, as I wrote about personal events in my life that has been helped and supported with the NHS services, and why I want to run on there behalf.

Signed up to do the marathon.

I was meant to post this on the 1st of may but I keep putting it off. I’m not sure why. 

I signed up to the London marathon for next year. I’m very unfit and feeling really unwell at the moment. But the plan is by this time next year I can run a marathon. 

I need to have a training plan. And nutritional plan. I know I need to look after my body physically and mentally. 

I know I only have a one in ten chance of getting in, but I’m hoping to get to a physically and mentally better in a year. This is probably going to be the biggest challenge I’ve ever undertaken.

I’m motivate to try and do this. I’m not going to see it as a failure if I don’t get in, because I’m hoping by having the mind set of that I might being doing it, is going to give me the motivation to get healthier and fitter.

I’m starting today eating as little as possible and exercising as much as possible, I will loose this weight, I’m not going to give up I know I had a little slip over the last few days I’ve ate too much and haven’t been exercising. I need to do this for myself.

Im also going to start getting fitter, the plan is to run a marathon next year. I will be 25, I think it will be such a challenge but I will put all my effort in to training and I will succeed.
