Hi :-)

I'm proud of myself today because I cleaned
the kitchen and went to the grocery store even
though I was really angry and in a bad mood
and did not feel like helping myself at all.(grrr)

What are you proud of yourself for doing
today?

Disastercake, thanks for playing :P

Tonight I am feeling proud of myself
because I left a lengthy post in response
to someone's upset post, only to realize
afterward that I was meeting my own
need there instead of hers. I felt really
bad, but I resisted the urge to get rid
of the post, and instead decided it
was something I can use as an
example to practice DBT on.

Hi,

I was just reading these and felt like I
wanted to say "Good job!" or "Good for
you!" How bout if we alter this a little bit
to say a quick word of affirmation to
the person above, and then say what
we are proud of ourselves for? Because
these are all awesome. Good job, every-
one!

Good work balletomane!

Today I'm proud I talked to the managers at work about an order problem rather than just letting it eat at me.

Good job speaking up! That was brave. :D

Wargasm - Good job keeping your committment
to yourself! :D

I am proud of myself today because I felt shitty
when I woke up and anxious, and I didn't want
to do anything so I used some DBT skills I'm
learning to get myself going.

good job Collide! Sounds like you had a full day!

I am proud of myself today because I got some studying done and because I did not cry or SI.
I am also proud of myself because I did not put myself in a situation where I know I would feel utterly rejected and alone and would lead to me wanting to SI.

Awesome job, Kakalina! That's huge!!! :osmile: :Fade-color :D

I am proud of myself today because I made some plans for Halloween with my son today, instead of just avoiding the subject until the last minute. We have had so many upsetting and sad holidays because I avoid them and then freak out at the last minute. I didn't do that this time! :1dance: : : :
