When was the last time you did something nice for yourself and what was it?

Mine was last week, I decided to pamper myself :whistling:... Because (Me Myself and I) needed...

Allowed myself to start eating again.

Continuing to eat vegan what...for well over a month now...and oh my gosh! I've never felt physically better in my entire life...also is helping with my mental health as well...(i.e. ptsd cognitive distortions, and familial fallout, adhd, low-thyroid issues, insomnia, dyslexia, etc.), and this so very healthy vegan lifestyle is indeed the second-best thing I ever did for myself in my entire life! And since I would never have switched to vegan lifestyle had it not been for this forum and @Tornadic Thoughts, so the best thing I ever did in my life for myself was be able to seek out and find this forum (in hindsight now). Now, I even make my own homemade yummy edible (but I don't eat it) toothpaste, deodorant, and facial cleanser and moisturizer. Thanks @Tornadic Thoughts! And so thanks to this forum!

I doubt that I ever would have risked again for the second time and undergone my last EMDR decision's grueling 16 EMDR sessions earlier this year had it not been for this forum (EMDR did not work for me back in 1997-1999 (?), the first time I tried EMDR under a different psychologist, due to the myriad of misdiagnosed and incorrect and unnecessary bipolar prescription drugs and their horrid side-effects/symptoms), and for my being able to research here in the forum about EMDR, and the pros and cons from other members here, etc. Due to the forum ptsd research I exhaustively obtained, I was less afraid of trying EMDR again (for second time). And learning more and more about ptsd through this forum's members and since I was no longer on the rx drugs (was dc'd off of them in 3/2012 and correct diagnosis for ptsd was then given/obtained as well) to replace the misdiagnosed bipolar), I felt more confident due to the ptsd education/information I still to this day continue to learn in the forum, and in moving forward again with EMDR modality.

So discovering then believing in the forum (education and resources) as well as forum encouragement and love...and investing time and energy in same...is the best thing ever I have done for my self, just sayin'.

I am ordering a delivery pizza tomorrow night and I am going to look for and treat myself to a new stereo tomorrow.:D

I took an online trip to my favorite nursery in the world and visited the different rooms and ordered two special treats for me that will soon be on their way. It was as if my husbands spirit was with me and we were holding hands while I explored. Heavenly.

Bought some purple mums that I am going to plant in pots when I get home.

 

[Tornadic Thoughts]

Made and bottled my first ever herbal infused oil, using comfrey leaf and organic cold pressed extra virgin olive oil. Making wild plantain next. I'm so excited...I just can't fight it. :geek:

I bought some shoes today. I have been wanting boat shoes for about a year and a half to replace the last pair I got at Savers which is used stuff like consignment. They had to be Sperry Topsiders. An outlet store near me that was always women's shoes only, had a sign out front today when I walked by "men's shoes." I couldn't believe it. I bought a pair and my wife can give them to me for Christmas. They were a healthy % off full price. I just didn't want to pay $100 bucks for them which is about the going rate full retail.
