Hi Everyone

If you have any good news in your life or seen any good news in the media please let us know in a brief post 😊

Note: I understand and respect this thread topic is not for everyone as any level of anxious/depressive feelings are awful to experience

Just for myself I have a couple of positives

  • Peta Credlin on Sky News gave Beyond Blue a huge mention earlier this week
  • My mum is still independent and doing well at 90 years of age and her lung function test is 'Normal' and still a smoker! Love you mum x

any good news is welcome...and thankyou everyone for being a part of the Beyond Blue forums too!

my kindest always...Paul

Have just eaten a mango from our own tree for the first time!

I’ve been gazing at this mango tree in our backyard for nearly three years (not continuously, I do other things besides stare at trees).

But other years, there were no fruits at all, or the possums would get to them before they were even ready to pick. A neighbour told me the tree was ‘no good’ for mangoes.

I guess it’s shown me that you never know what’s around the corner.

Awww yay Lillylane!!! THAT'S FREAKING AWESOME!

Wanna do a little dance with me? we can call it the Mango a go go lol.

I try NOT to do anything much except for staring at trees lol, oh unless I'm hugging them. 😉😎😍

In another language it's called "mindfulness" lol.

amberlite, you are MOST welcome sweetheart!

Thanks EM, I knew you’d appreciate it.

Haha good to have found a kindred spirit with the staring-at-trees habit 🙂
