I'm learning to see who is really there for me and to separate myself from the people who do not care for me in my life

I'm good less stressed depressed angery

I've reached step 60 in my Growth Path. I've learned so far that gratitude, when it's self-generated and not dictated to me that I should be grateful, helps me feel like I have more to live for than I thought. Talking to myself like a friend would is helping me foster an internal, compassionate voice. I'm finding that helpful. It's a new thing for me to have a friendly, supportive internal voice. I hope it stays with me.

These tools work if you keep at it. Even when things are good process your day as if things weren't good and you'll keep the good days streak going. Slacking off leads to back sliding old and bad habits.

I have learned to think about shame as being connected to being hard on myself. I am learning to see my patterns and the signs that show me that I am following my monkey mind instead of observing my thoughts and emotions without judgement. I have learned that I fuel my emotions and that I really like it even though I am trying to convince myself that I don't.

I've learnt that it becomes easier the longer you keep going. You just have to try over and over again and be kind to yourself and it will work.

Step 50 abd still alive, a success.

I have been a member since March 2017 after a bad time with anxiety in Feb, this year. The 7 Cups community has been very helpful in getting my anxiety under control with their positive support and resources. Thank you.

I've reached level 23.

Finding this forum when I did, is a blessing.

When I started, my mom was in the hospital for a broken foot. From there, it got worse. She became sick from getting MRSA. Then she stayed in ICU from Easter until May 7. She contracted Sepsis shock. Then her kidneys failed and she passed on May 11. I used this forum to release some heartache. Used the meditation techniques to let go of some anxiety. I've learned from this forum that there are other people in this world that is going through exactly what I am, at the very same time, at this very moment.

The only way is up.
