Step 10 compiled I'm learning to relax and release the tension I've held within myself.
@Lilhoneybee that's great! I hope you get in more peace with yourself! :)
I am learning that it is ok for me to ask for help.. That is one thing I have most struggled with my entire life. I've always felt that it was a sign of weakness and vulnerability. Since I have joined 7 cups I have made an effort to reach out whenever I am feeling overwhelmed or depressed.
@Introvert1190 I'm so glad to see you seeking help here, and know that we are here for you no matter what it is. I hope you get over your struggles soon! ♥
I learned to calm down and relax
@IDontUsername that's great! I hope it made you feel better!
That all things pass. I am not how I feel. How I feel is affected by how I think. It's okay to be lonely sometimes. Patience is difficult but I am learning day by day.
@emmamichelle1 I wish you the best! And if you ever feel lonely and need someone we are here for you!
My path asked me to post... so I suppose I should. I've learned that I need to have more patience. I've been through a lot of trauma and still have battles to win. I know I will win them, but I need to become more patient. I'm always wanting to go, go, go. I'm always trying to get everything done at the same time, all at once. If there is any kind of wait, or delay, I become extremely anxious. I begin thinking about the what-ifs, the possibilities of losing my battles, the idea of my abusive ex ever getting the upper hand over my son or me. He won't though. I just need to calm down and be patient and keep myself busy while I wait.
Now, to practice patience. Learning that I need to become patient is one thing. Actually fulfilling this goal is another.
@kirstorbin thank you for sharing with us! You are such a stromg person and you will win but give yourself the time needed to do so. I wish you all the peace and I hope you become more patient! ♥
@Matildah Thank you. Everything is slowly falling into place. I still have a deadline for the thing I'm impatient and anxious over and I still have to do everything in this timeline, but the wheels are rolling, now. :) This website has been helping me a lot. Between the support I'm getting here, my boyfriend's help and comfort and the help of a close friend, I feel like I have a safety net for my sanity. lol

@Jacobfuckgirls I don't care about you guy I just care about me getting a better life
@Jacobfuckgirls - I wonder if you would like to try the self-help guides? You can click on Path --> Self-help. There is one about Alcohol/Drug abuse as well as the 12 step working guide. Or maybe you would like to talk to a listener?
Share your successes with others, they just might find it very helpful.
Always try to stick with people who are positive, it can rub off on you.
