Im new here and I just reached level 10
I just reached level 25 and I've learned that just because you're not a listener doesn't mean you can't help someone!
Ive reached step 150! To celebrate i dyed my hair black...bit much? Am i taking this too seriously?
I have bipolar 2, GAD and Social Anxiety. I get very nervous having to ask things of other people, especially strangers. Yesterday was my birthday and I received an email saying that I got 2 free NARS lipsticks from sephora and I am OBSESSED with lipstick let alone a brand I could never afford like NARS. I wanted it so bad but going up to the clerk to tell her it was my birthday and I wanted to redeem my lipsticks was almost impossible. Walking towards the store I felt the giant, heavy monster I call anxiety sit right on my chest and suffocate me. Nausea kicked in and I started shaking my fingers. I had to take a few deep breaths and then I put on a fake smile and forced myself to the front. I was completely awkward and studdered once while I spoke but the clerk didn't think twice about it. She smiled and said of course and happy birthday and gave me my lipsticks. I felt so relieved and excited about my lipsticks the anxiety instantly vanished. My body felt exhausted but I was so proud of myself! Another milestone I overcame in the last two days was I went to the gym and squatted 110 pounds! I am trying to consistently go to the gym more often and create healthier habits! I used to go the the gym 2 or 3 times a week but I would like to increase it to 4 times!
I am still very new to this experience, but I am overwhelmed by having found a place so full of understanding, compassion and motivation. This feels better than I imagined possible when I signed in and I'm looking very forward to future conversations.
Thank you all for being here and making this possible!
I feel better today... who's with me? :D i'm going to have a nice cup of tea... mint tea... who knows? Maybe 7 ;) Stay positive, people.... i'm not a listener yet but i'm on my way... we'll talk in no time...
