In The Words Of Barney Stinson...

Challenge Accepted!!!

Hi Guysss!
Now I will point out to begin with that nobody has challenged me to do this, I have challenged myself. Today whilst I was perusing the world of YouTube, I came across a particular vlog about coping with depression. Curious as to what this vlogger had to say on the matter I watched with intent. Now some of the content I did not relate to, mainly that of self harming. However there were some brilliant points made about different types of coping methods.

Therefore inspired by this video, I am going to write a '100 Things to do before I deflate' list. This is pretty much as it says, 100 things I want to do before I have my next 'down' moment. Hopefully I will  be able to dedicate most of my blog to these 'Things' and document them on here for you all to read about. I have been looking for a proper direction for my blog and I think that this is perfect. Sure, I will still be doing some daily updates and talking to you guys about random things, but now this blog has a purpose. If one person is inspired or gets the tiniest bit of joy from this, then I know I have done what I set out to do.

So here it is, my list!!
