I'm trying as hard as I can to get my sleeping schedule right. Even if the results aren't as good as I want them to be, there's still been progress.

I am proud of myself for creating and completing one painting and starting a new one!

i didn't freak out that she wasn't there.
i would have done maybe last year, definitely the year before that. so even though i may not feel like it an awful lot of the time, i'm making some sort of progress.
i didn't freak out. i organised people and we got stuff done. and i had fun. without her being there.

I got off work early and went to the campus health center, and filled out a million and a half forms so I could talk to a counselor. And I told the counselor about how I've been more depressed lately, and how my private doctor wasn't worried but I was, and she got me an appointment for Monday to see a pdoc who works through the health center.

I made sure all the new promotions were in place ready for next week when I'm off work so my boss doesn't have to venture into my department when we're short staffed.

I'm proud that:

I'm posting on bus, even though it's hard right now.
I went for a long bike ride today.
I'm not handling my depression by withdrawing inwards. Instead, I'm forcing myself to remain involved in things like church and volunteer work. I'm doing my best to cope in a healthy way.

I'm proud because I've made myself come back to BUS and talk about what's happening, rather than trying to deal with it all myself. I'm proud that I'm getting more used to asking for help, since it's really hard for me to do. More so, though, I'm proud that being here hasn't made me urgy like I was scared it would.

...because i made it through last night without SI or doing anything else stupid, thanks to the help of my friends and gf.

clouds i'm so so proud of you

*ahem*

I'm proud of myself because i'm still here still fighting

Typo... I'm glad you're still here fighting.

Although I'm not proud of alot of things today, I am proud I walked on the treadmill for 1 mile... I was supposed to do 2, but I just got lazy, I guess. I'm out of my anxiety meds and don't have insurance for another week and feel like I'm crawling out of my skin, so that's why I was proud that I went for the walk.... that way I didn't SI*.

I helped my boyfriend with his math and didn't get frustrated, slam my papers onto the table, and ignore him.

i went to uni at 10 this morning and worked all day on my assignments that are due in tomorrow. and even though they're not going to get done tonight, i at least made a start.

Something Else · Post by **Something Else** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 2:22 pm

Wow, pluginbaby, that is something to be proud about. It's hard to get going on assignments sometimes (at least for me).

I'm proud because I've made almost a week without hurting myself, and it hasn't been easy. And I've been taking my pill every day, since it was prescribed four days ago, and I'm fighting to get better. And last night I went to a T appointment, and she said I did a better job talking to her and telling her what's going on (or something like that). And... I'VE MADE AN ENTIRE MONTH WITHOUT ALCOHOL!

Those are TONS of things to be proud of!!! It's all about baby steps, the whole "one day at a time thing" with any addiction or self destructive coping mechanism. I'M PROUD OF YOU! I love that you said "I'm fighting to get better" because that's what it takes.... the willingness to fight, and the willingness to stand back up when you fall. Good job, Jaded!!!

That's wonderful, well done!!

I'm proud because I went to a party and saw my ex-boyfriend for the first time since we split up, with his new girlfriend, and I didn't get overly upset or make a fool of myself in front of him.

bus

I'm proud of myself today because....
