I learnt to be a better person on here. Thank you for all the small miracles, 7 Cups.
me too.......i didnt think i could get
out of the dark ploace that i was in
I learned to be gentle and kind to myself as well as other people around me! To be patient and not stress out as much!
I want to be where you are.
I think my biggest milestone here on 7 Cupswas being asked to become a forum mentor by Laura. I love the forums and I'm really happy and proud to be able to help out and make them an even better place!
I learned that if I'm ever going to get past some stuff I have to talk about it. And that getting an outside opinion and having someone else totalk to (and sometimes having a good cry whilst at it) are some of the most invaluable things in the world. Thank you, 7cups, for making me deal with and realize things about myself I never would have. And thank you for making me feel like I'm not alone.
I've learned that I hate feeling sad because when I was a child, I had to focus on survival, and sadness wasn't an option. When I feel sad, I worry that I won't survive and that I'll disappear into I'm not sure what, but I'll disappear/die.
Now I am asking my higher power to help child-me feel safe to feel sad, so that grown-up me can go back into therapy, work the 12 steps in Overeaters Anonymous, get help for PTSD, let go of harmful coping strategies, and so on.
I learned how to be more empathetic.
I've learned that listening can heal!
I have learnt that I can help people here!
I have learned to be more thankful.
I learntthat as much as this site helps, i need a real hug :(
