What are you proud of?

Just booked an appointment with my GP. Triggery stuff, hence the major procrastination. But I did it!

I am very proud that I bounced out a very dark black hole of depression today and am now feeling so much better. I am proud that I am taking a break from talking about my feelings about a currant situation in my life for a whole week. Maybe this is unrealistic and I am just fooling myself that I will be able to actually do this but I am sure going to try.:tup:

Just reached out for help. Called the IOP helpline. Huge for me.
I'm so f*cking paranoid about asking for help. But I just pulled my head out of my butt and made the call. Didn't enjoy it but didn't die, either. Yay.

Left the room here...interacted with people.

Helped cook dinner like I use to.

Building me some new traditions for Saturday and beginning to build a new life once again.

The idea of using my classic signature ran through my head.

I'm not going to use it and I'm not going to say what it is, but coming up with the idea is a sign of recovery.

I just had a triggering, very difficult discussion in which I chose to be very honest and vulnerable. I felt that was necessary in order to honor our relationship. There were some dire moments, but the outcome was good.

I'm proud of making progress in learning patience, discretion, and self-respect.

I'm proud of improving my skills in "get into people's heads" for motivational purposes... and the restraint to not brag about their success.

I'm proud that I've overcome the darkness of shame and fear so well, that my fiancee's 8-pound Chorky is fiercely possessive of me.

I'm most proud of all that I remember that while I am responsible for what I do to others, I do not own what others do to me.

Today is a good day to be. Thank you for asking, @Rad . :smug:

I am proud that I walked in the town and tried several clothes and shoes - even asked an employee. Even if I didn't find anything, I gave it a try.

Wow everyone is doing so good and is very proud.
I ended up googling what is feeling proud? For some reason, because its hard to feel it. Which Im Welsh, so thats bad, because Welsh people are generally pretty good at pride.

So.. Today Im proud of myself for allowing myself to feel my feelings and emotions. That I am capable of recognising my feelings and expressing them. They might feel painful but that doesnt mean they are bad.

I'm so proud of everyone here you guys are doing amazing.

I'm proud of myself for still trying to make time for myself to do things that keep me sane in my cumbersome life.
