What Made You Happy Today?

[Lionheart]

Hearing from a special friend I've made recently made me happy.

I am lucky to have a support system outside my family. Maybe one day my family can be a better support system but for now I am so very thankful I have people here that are able to help me.

I helped out a friend today, and did so without taking away too much time from my own day. She thanked me and that felt good; I actually felt genuinely appreciated, rather than taken advantage of.

I made a forum members day :).

My partner showing me great affection, making sure I ate and generally him being such a positive person that I feel more confident and able to share how I'm feeling. I'm a lucky woman.

I am so happy that the massive anxiety has dropped down so I am me again.

That I made it through the day with very little, if any, anxiety. I managed to plan my day out despite having nothing really to do. Usually that causes me to be fretful. Today there was none of that. That makes me very happy.

I got a trophy for people liking things I have posted on here. This made me smile on an otherwise not-very-smiley-day. :)

A friend came to visit and we spent a nice afternoon chatting.

My son called me this morning. He works so much he doesn't always have a lot of time so I love it when he calls. I don't let on to him how much I'm struggling so he doesn't really know how much it means to me when he takes the few minutes to call. I love that guy.

Receiving a pile of trophies for my posts ! :D

LOL, I received "a pile" of trophies, too, and that gave me some 'warm fuzzies'.

I don't let on to him how much I'm struggling so he doesn't really know how much it means to me when he takes the few minutes to call. I love that guy.

Same thing with my son!! I learned a long time ago that the best thing I can do for him, is to be mentally healthy, so I'm careful to not let on if I am struggling.

I am happy that I was able to talk to, hold, and comfort, a 'sister'/friend who is very despondent due to her father's death this week. She had a dream that they went together, and that he wanted her to come also. I explained that dreams are a way that our brains try to 'make sense' of the unthinkable, or unbearable things. I told her that taking her own life would leave a legacy of pain, sorrow, and give all her grandchildren the thought that it is an acceptable 'way out'! She was married to my pervert brother many years ago, and I still consider her my sister.

Fulfilled would be an even better way of saying it made me happy!

BTW...being a member here has helped me learn more about how to handle this type of thing.

THANK YOU!!!

I am happy to have gotten my granddaughters sushi today. They just love it and have not gotten any lately.

Chatting on the phone to a forum friend. Hopefully she and her Hubby will visit us soon.
