I have learned to remember to do something positive for myself every day. Step by step they add up over time and I have started to think more positively now too.
I've learned that it's baby steps. Thinking of the big picture gets overwhelming for a lot of people - inc. me - so I try to stay mindful and just focus on achieving this one thing, right now. Today, that was grocery shopping. I tried not to look ahead to having to put everything away, exhausted from my long walk home, or tomorrow, when I'll have to prep all those vegetables and cook meals with it. I just got my list, wallet, a pen, the shopping cart, got dressed and left. That's all it took to start, and now Step One (the shopping) is done. I'll deal with Step Two (cooking) when I do it. Simple.
Step 160!
I've learnt that loneliness is a feeling. I don't enjoy it but it is a feeling
@ibluenomore when you feel lonely do what your mind wants to do.... Like listen music, go for a drive, eat your favorite dishes, go and visit your favourite places... You will feel good
@ibluenomore yes, it is a feeling. When I feel lonely...I try to go for a walk or to a cafe with a book. Have you looked into group gym classes or group book clubs in your local area?
I've learnt that anyone can fight their monsters and deal with their problems only and solely by choice - you think that you can't do it, therefore you will most certainly not do it.
@UltravioletWoolf amazing
It is a very good platform to deal with ourselves.... To know self better.... Get lots of help
I'm up to Step number 109, and I'm learning to deal with the times when I feel I haven't been much help to people as a listener, it's something hard to do since I get emotionally invested easily. However, I'm learning to let you of expectations, and sometimes they come back to talk to me again; or I help someone else which is always great!

Step 530: I've learned that acceptance comes with time.
I reached step 430! I've learned that Wednesdays are my worst days for feeling depressed so I need to give myself extra self-care that day.
