Milestones or Steps Completed! Share and Celebrate Here :)

I have learned that I should care about my emotional state every day, not getting it to the point where I can't do anything because of depression and anxiety.

I am learning to try and step back from my emotions to see situations more clearly.

Sometimes in life you have to take care of yourself even before anyone else

So totally pleased and surprised at how easily this introspecting and self-growth has entered into my life.

to fight

@Hooper123 - I have learned that the group chats are a good place to get a quick pick-me-up when I just need a little boost to get through the next meeting or the next task or therapy session - I don't necessarily need a full on therapeutic conversation - sometimes just a little friendly tweeking on my thought process to make it a step further through the day.

To do stuff I like to do

@GlenM Yay I'm on step 50! There's no stopping me as I come on here every day. I've learned through the depression mindfulness exercise that depression involves physical symptoms like tiredness that often lead to the sadness. The exercise's description of depression was very apt.

I reached milestone #20. Some days feel amazing, some days feel horrible. Some are in-between. Being on this journey on 7Cups reminds me that I am not my emotions. The biggest thing I learnt here so far, is that I am far from being the only one in this. I am not alone, and I will be OK. Maybe it will take a very long time until I manage to balance out my emotions. But that's okay.

I can do anything if I want to :) feeling valuable !
