I am proud of myself today because I nearly got upset over something and managed to pull myself out of it :)

I am proud of myself today because:

I had a good first day at IOP
I have been able to fight my many urges today
I have gone almost the entire day without thinking about my ex
I have cut back on the amount of cigs I have smoked
I have been able to listen to songs that I used to associate with my relationship without freaking out

I guess today I have a lot to be proud of.

thanks! Yesterday was good for me, the night was not so good, because I had a slip, but I am not beating myself up too much.


I am proud today because I have been doing things to make me feel better, and doing things for myself.

I didn't even notice that I'd got through the 24th of July without cutting....and somehow that makes it better, because its shows I didn't even give it a second thought.
I'm proud of that :)
...then one day I realised that the people you see in waiting rooms and car parks and on trains are really far more interesting. That they all have whole novels inside them, a fabric of scar tissues, photos and memories. They are comedies and tragedies and - more often - both at the same time.

I am proud of myself today because I made something to eat even though my mind was telling me not to eat.

Yesterday, I'm proud because I left the house when I reeeeally did not want to see the world.

Today, I'm proud because I saw some friends for the first time in ages and didn't panic.

Best of luck with the interview, Zombiepeople!

I made plans to fix my sleeping.

(Granted, the plans were, stay up all night so tomorrow my sleeping pattern will be 'back in sync'! :tongue: )

Take care,
Annie.
don't worry if i'm not here - i come and go. :cowsleep:

I had a good appointment with my psychiatrist and was honest to him even though I really didn't want to be.
