I actually painted something in my art book at home today. It wasn't much but at least I actually got off my ass and did something.

I'm proud of myself today because I managed to stay at work the whole 8 hours and not try to sneak my way out of the last hour when I know I'll have to make it up this week. 17 more hours and I'm done!!!

I'm proud of myself today because I haven't slipped up or even used rubber bands in 3 weeks. Hopefully it'll last longer.

Because I scored another victory over my ocd to take a bath
Because I went to the gym
Because I did some more washing
Because I've been cooking my own meals and eating sensibly
Because I've managed to socialise to some degree despite my anxiety

I'm proud of myself because I admitted to my faults and instead of running away from someone I actually reached out to restart our friendship.

I've talked to five people on the phone. I never could have done that.

Also, I'm facing my fears about N coming back. :blfrwn: It's somehting I'm really nervous about, but I'm learning how to deal with it.

They go and they come
But the stars and the stillness
Are always at home.

Today when I was mega homesick I made myself a sunday lunch of yorkshire pudding,chicken,veg, boiled potatoes n gravy - ok so it's not my mums sunday roast n never will be- but I felt closer to home knowing they'd be eating a cooked meal at the same time as me n it helped a little - i'm proud I ate it because it had more fat in it that i've been able to allow myself lately, and because it tasted pretty edible ... :roll:

In 2 days time I will have been living in a shared student house for 3 weeks despite my ocd- and everybodies reservations about me coping because of my contamination issues
Because I've been going to the gym fairly reguarly
Because I came up with an idea for my performance realisation
Because I initiated a social event with a new friend at college and went out to the cinema for the night (my suggestion and everything)
Because I also initiated arranging to go to Hull fair with the same friend at some point next week
Because I've been doing 'OK' with my food issues (for the most part)
Because I'm finding things to be proud of myself for
