- I want to try to pay off my overdraft this year.
- This time next year, I want either to be discharged from Hospital or be a voluntary patient (no longer sectioned).
- I'd like to get a job.
- To increase the rate I read!
- I'd like to reduce my naptimes so that I can get up at 8am and not need a sleep in the afternoon because when I'm not in the Hospital and I'm working and/or at College, I won't be able to do that.
- I want to use any spare money I have for things for my home so that when I'm ready to move into it, I'm not having to spend a ton of money!
- If I am discharged for this time next year then I'd like to have my kitten, who I'll be naming Dolly!
- I'd like to complete Psychology and vow to tell her absolutely everything I can possibly think of.
- By the end of 2014, I hope to either be reducing my anti-psychotic medication, or completely off it.
- I'd like to be able to go on unescorted leave and not worry it'll result in me losing all of my other leave.
- I'd like to take full advantage of having a free gym here and become more confident in my body.
- I'd like to have more confidence in my style to experiment a bit with fashion.
And, from both the nature of BPD and my experience of it, I know how unpredictable it is and I think it would be irresponsible of me to think that this year will go smoothly and without a hiccup - I still hope there isn't one, obviously. So, by the end of 2014, I hope to be happier and healthier, and above all; ALIVE.
