Step 110. I've learned that as easy as it may be sometimes to improve and achieve...with just a few thoughtless words, it's just as easy to relapse and fall. Happened to me last night and I feel stupid.
@CleopatraElizabethI if it is easy to go either ways, why not choose the best? Its not stupid to relapse, its stupid to loose yourself to the relapse. Regain control and bear through, and you're stronger then most!
@CleopatraElizabethI
It happens. There's no shame in relapse, even if it doesn't currently feel that way.
As long as the past cycle isn't re-entered fully, therefore no further effects that need to be reversed, you haven't fallen fully. Even in your moments of relapse, you're still doing better than you were before. You're more aware, have more knowledge of your ability to change things, are taking the risk to recover which will be worth it.
I can't say that this will be true for you, but I think it is.
You can't be on guard all the time, and even so it doesn't mean you've failed.

Thank you. When I was upset, and starting to mentally berate myself, I thought of a simple post that had appeared in my feed. It was a picture, and all it said was "Forgive Yourself." I'm still sorting things out in my brain, but I'm not as self-loathing as I would have been in the past.
@CleopatraElizabethI
*hugs* I'm glad to hear that. You're doing well.
That we have to be positive to live positive
@Lisaslilsis I am glad that you have learnt to be positive! This is a great realisation! Well done!
Have a great day!
I learned to just take 5 minutes to try to relax myself and it sometimes works :)
@conscientiousDrum135 I glad this is helping you! This is a step in the right direction. We are here for you!
Have a good day.
I need to be more greatful for the things I have in this life.
@LifeWanderer and with resolutions come revolutions!
@GlenM that mindfullnes helps me feel alot better
@slsllslslslslslslsl and you can do better when you feel better
I just got to step 100 and I have learned and grown a lot since I first started. I've learned to better control my emotions and not get swept up in the rush of them. I've learned to live in the moment and focus on the positives. I am excited to continue learning meditation techniques and ways to help myself and the ones I love through tough times.
@Mynaameissavage congratulations, you've gone a long way!

There are good days and not so good days.. nothing is permanent. You can be sad the good times don't last forever or you can take heart that the bad times don't last forever. It's a matter of perspective.
@Terralyn the good days help you through the bad. The bad days teach you!
Sometimes people will ask for more than you can give.
It's okay to say no.
@Beastiessister And its okay to loose. Just know you gave it all you got!
Try try and try again no matter how hard I try it feels like I'll never have my positive changes accepted because of the negative person I used to be. But every day is a new day so I can only keep trying...
@angrymunky86 the more you try, the more you succeed!
