Adjust to my hearing aids and wear them at least 10 hours a day
@mutter3
I can see that might be hard to adjust to your hearing aids and wear them since my father-in-law has issues with his. Hope everything works out.
to not be so scared of the ocean and go to the beach
@Emily1256
I hope you can go enjoy the beach and ocean. It is really fun to visit. We go a lot to the Washington and Oregon coast and stay the weekend at different places. We also make it to California some.
My fear of standing up for myself. I
@MissPen
I'm the same way. I've been reading this book called Empowered Boundaries by Cristien Storm. It's given me a lot of strategies for standing up for myself and voicing my needs.
@CheshireCat7 Sounds like a book I need to read! Thanks for mentioning it, and good luck!
@MissPen I do the same thing
I would love to become healthy, not sure how to get there though
@AffyAvo
I hope your care team can find that for you. I know finding a good care team is hard since I fired one of my doctors today.
@DanaMH I have a great nurse and hematologist. There's llimited options though.
@AffyAvo
That is great to hear. Yes, there is limited options where I am also. Some of my care team are about 3 hours away from me which is very hard but we have great communication. Just wish the local group would get onboard with that great communication style like the other folks further away. At least when I go up there I try to combine appointments all in 1 day and some of them are bending over backwards to make the times work in 1 day.
A goal of my is to get my debt paid off and one fear would be that i'll lose everything again.
@Tinycupcake
That is a great goal to have and hopefully you won't lose anything ever again.
@DanaMH <3
@DanaMH
One of my goals is to do more art in 2019 another one is
loosing the fear of abandonnement, I already lost it to a high extend but when in a low mood it can pop up again.
@amiablePeace77
Art is a great coping skill also. I would really be excited to see things that you create that you would like to share the pictures of. Fear of abandonment is hard for a lot of folks. Having folks that you can go to when in your time of need helps a lot.
@DanaMH
Dana, I know there are folks here and I will talk to them and that gives me peace of mind. 😊
@amiablePeace77
That is great to hear that you found people on 7cups that you can talk to. 
What is one fear or goal that you would like to conquer?
The fear I have is I am not a good person, I have always been my worst enemy
I will conquer the self esteem issue I have on myself.
@pamharley003
Sometimes we do feel like we are our worst enemy and that is when we need to do DBT Turning the mind. With this month's daily self-esteem challenge I think it will help us all a lot.
Conditioning my mind to deal with my constant back pain that is my new normal so I don
@bgdave
Sorry you are having back pain. That does sound hard.
Quitting sugar and high processed carbohydrates again with Keto so I can drop my weight back down to 265 from 360.
@bgdave
Sounds like a great goal that you have. I know I am working on weight loss this year also.
