Today I feel blessed because…
Fill in the blank.
Fill in the blank.
...because I'm alive and have a chance of having a a better life. A chance is all I need
You can do it! I know how intimidating it can feel looking at how much work we have to do. But everyday is just one step on the journey.
God gave me a chance
I've met a couple really amazing people over the last few months. I felt very alone for a long time and my ruminating and anxiety made it a lot worse. It feels so great to have a couple people that have my back now but it's scary because everything is happening so quickly that I don't know how to feel.
Another day above ground.
I’ve had resentment against someone for some time. Today I saw a video on how to let go of resentment and that I should tell that person about how I feel and what I would expect of him (that he could apologize if I tell him what hurt me and he even sees me suffering for it). I hope I will get the chance tomorrow to tell him what I wished he would do in that and that scenario. I’m blessed because I found this out. You all don’t have the background story, but that is one thing I want to learn more: communication👍
@elliss2 You can do meditations for communication skills.
@NotSoNewb82 Thanks, but I don’t do meditation
Of relative health, wealth and happiness. Of course things are still a work in progress, but that's life
…because I woke up 🤘🏻🥰
I got up, I did TWO loads of laundry, and unloaded and reloaded my dishwasher. I also made my daughter laugh, and I didn't seek reassurance more than once today. What a win, right? I also changed her clothes despite my intrusive thoughts. You guys who have seen my post know that I have been spiraling. I relapsed with POCD in January after being free and clear of it for almost 3 whole years. It's been the biggest struggle, and today I had a bunch of wins and I think that counts for something. I'm still struggling and still second guessing everything, but I'm also trying to have one win a day. And today I had more than one, which is kind of a big deal for me. Thanks for everyone being here for me despite how many times I ask the same thing over and over. I'm just a mom who wants to be the best I can for my daughter; God gave me her and I want to raise her the way she should be.
I was practicing mindfulness for a little bit and then I just started to relax and just kind of take in just the sensations and sounds around me and I just felt good. I almost wanted to cry.
How's everyone doing today? I hope all is well for you. God bless each and every single one of you!
